  • CNN Insiders Ticked That 'New Day' Co-Anchor Kate Bolduan Was Replaced Permanently While on Maternity Leave

    Jeff Zucker, CNN's head honcho, has ruffled some feathers over at the cable news network not only for replacing a familiar morning face, but by doing it in a shady way. "New Day's" Kate Bolduan has been on maternity leave since September, and not only has she been moved from that prime co-anchoring spot, but Zucker did it on a day when it would be buried beneath the real drama unfolding in Paris.According to a report by the "New York Post," Bolduan will be permanently replaced by Alisyn Camerota, who has been filling in for her during her maternity leave. Apparently, Zucker feels that Camerota is a better fit beside fellow co-anchors Chris Cuomo and Michaela Pereira. Bolduan has not been completely fired from CNN, though, as she will now co-host "@This Hour" at 11 a.m., but that is hardly the gig Bolduan was expecting to return to.CNN insiders are said to be ticked off at the way Zucker has handled things. Replacing an anchor in a key time slot is generally considered news, so the fact that it came out literally in the middle of the hostage situations that were unfolding in Paris is no coincidence. Instead, it is considered a shady move intended to hide the fact that Bolduan was cut from the morning news show while on leave and tending to her new daughter.

  • Columbia Journalism Review Names CNN's Don Lemon Worst Reporter of the Year

    It's that point in the year when nearly every publication dishes out their "best and worst" lists and it seems that CNN's Don Lemon's reporting has been particularly noteworthy. According to the Columbia Journalism Review, Lemon has been named the worst reporter of 2014.
