CNN Talking with ‘America’s Got Talent’ Judge for a Primetime Slot

Jun 11, 2010  •  Post A Comment

CNN’s primetime ratings woes have been well documented. Now comes word that the network is talking to one of the popular judges on "America’s Got Talent"–Piers Morgan, about a primetime slot, reports the New York Post’s Page Six.

Morgan, besides also being a judge on "Britain’s Got Talent," is the former editor of British tabloids News of the World and the Daily Mirror, the Post notes, adding that Morgan is talking with CNN about a potential panel show which would either air during the 8 p.m. slot vacated by Campbell Brown or Larry King’s time period at 9 p.m.

The report comes after the New York Post reported in April that Morgan was in discussions with NBC to host an interview show. The most recent Post article doesn’t mention if Morgan is still discussing a show with NBC.

  1. Dumb move by CNN. America does not need any more British accents in their living rooms after the BP disaster. The people running CNN have ensured that their audience numbers will continue to erode until they start running infomercials during primetime on that network.
    What can CNN be thinking?

  2. Yeah because ALL british people work and support BP in this fiasco, so let’s make sure there’s no british accents on our TV here in the states.
    Give me a break, what sort of moronic suggestion is that. That’s like saying George Bush ruined our country and caused a lot of pain for other countries, so those countries should never put Americans on TV.
    Wake Up.

  3. Isn’t Morgan the guy that faked photos of the British soldiers torturing Iraqis? That is what CNN needs to improve the ratings – News that they can make up themselves – Fox can’t cover what doesn’t exist.
