It appears the cable news network wants to add some excitement and flair to their operations by naming former NBC Universal chief Zucker as its president. Guess he wanted a challenge. Going from network to 24 hour cable.....???
If "excitement and flair" means making CNN better, then they'd better hope that the version of Zucker they get
is the guy who did things like make the Today Show #1 (in the '90s), and gave the news division a boost, not the version
who ran NBC Entertainment into the ground, and royally screwed up the Leno/O'Brien thing.
NBC still hasn't recovered from this guy.
Some of the reactions to CNN's choice are pretty hilarious:
