Does This Clear the Way for Shep to go to CNN?

CNN moved Jake Tapper to primetime and he has been nothing short of a dud.

Insiders say that Tapper was hoping to keep his show in primetime, but CNN has announced that hen will be going back to the 4PM slot.

The network is spinning the move as something that Tapper wants and he only agreed to do the primetime show through the midterm elections.

“Bullshit!” says one CNN insider to FTVLive, “Tapper was hoping to stay in primetime, like most anyone would.”

That leaves CNN with a hole to fill and Shepard Smith just became available.

CNBC is pulling the plug on Smith’s show later this month and CNN needs a name to try and get back on track in primetime.
