Are they making charges at CNN/HLN again? One of the 35+ female Anchors...
...Judy Fortine, is doing ACTUAL NEWS right now! AND, the "way to big Graphics" are gone too, cut back to only one line of info and a oneline crawl on the bottom of the screen!

It looks like they may be bringing Judy back grudgingly though, because they have a really strong, hard light on her, very bad for a woman who is most likely in her mid 40's.:wtf:

Anyone know, I stopped watching CNN/HLN years ago, after they turned into CNN/Entertainment News.

2. Been watching for over an Hour now, and it looks like the old HLN is back!
Same format and ALL News, and they changed the set back to something that looks like NEWS too!

This is good news people, we are making progress!

4. Operation Mockingbird agents recalled from CNN HQ?
Sounds suspicious. I'll have to check for myself to believe it.

6. Wait a while
before you decide if CNN is improving. The new chief said that a large part of his makeover would be a return to delivering "compelling stories." Compelling Stories is a pitch for ratings, not factual reportage. We'll know soon enough what they're up to.

7. It's already been several months since he took over, when was that?
If CNN/HLN still looks like this on Tuesday, I would definitely call it progress in the correct direction.

8. Looks like they brought back another 30 year old + female anchor
Katherine Calloway is back, it appears.

Funny, they did make a big deal about, "We're changing it all back to the way it was in July 2001 before we 'changed everything'."
