And Then There was Poppy

It wasn’t that long ago that CNN and boss Chris Licht blew up the CNN morning news show (again) and placed Don Lemon, Kaitlin Collins, and Poppy Harlow in as the anchor team.

A short time later, Lemon was fired, Collins is bumped to primetime, and now all that’s left is Harlow.

In a memo to the staff, Licht said that Harlow would remain on the low-rated CNN This Morning and will be joined by a round of guest hosts.

Unless CNN can get Joe and Mika to come over from MSNBC to guest host, CNN will continue to lag in the morning ratings.

If Licht were smart (which he has been showing us he’s not), he would ask Robin Meade to come back to CNN and host alongside Harlow.

That’s not going to happen, but if he did do that, the morning show might show some life.
