FTV Live – by Scott JonesSources tell FTVLive that CNN Boss Jeff Zucker is “actively looking for a replacement for Piers Morgan.”
Morgan signed a one year extension to his contract and as time winds down, Zucker is looking for someone to takeover his time slot.
Word is that Zucker really wants Katie Couric in that slot. Couric should be available soon as many expect this is the last year her talk show “Katie” will be on the air.
But, CNN sources tell FTVLive that Zucker is not putting all his eggs in the Couric basket. “He’s looking at other people besides Katie,” says our source.
Zucker might have learned a lesson when he planned on putting Erin Burnett on CNN’s new morning show. It blew up in his face, when Burnett balked at going to mornings.
Word is that CNN could offer Morgan another role at the network, most likely something outside of prime time and likely in the late night hours.
Morgan, his agent and CNN have been working on his new role or his exit strategy from the network.
One group that will likely be happy that CNN is pulling the plug on Morgan in prime time… the NRA.
Morgan has been very critical of the gun laws in the United States for years and has made it one of his main topics on his show.
Stay tuned…

I’ve got an idea for ole Piers;How about you just walk him out the back door to the gallows and hang him up like an old painting.
To bad the won’t weigh him down and drop him off a Pier.
He’ll run back to the Queen and wash her floors.
Now he can get his one way ticket back to Jolly Old to face those phone hacking charges. Another Tory bites the dust.
Too bad someone can’t hang the bastard as he walks to his car on the way home. I’m sure CNN is throwing him one big going away party for all his good Communist work that he helped promote for the treasonous government we have and I’m sure the Queen will be pleased as well. Hang ’em all!
please throw the limey bum from a bus…good road kill if ever
They should drop Piers Morgan alright,from a chopper are about 3000 feet should do it with a brief case and an umbrella in his hand. Oh and did I mention ,NO PARACHUTE!
Although they are not asking for Piss Mammy, Scotland Yard has warrants for his arrest.
“Welcome to Heathrow Piss Mammy, you are under arrest,” said the police inspector in customs.
I think we should convince Pantywaist Piers and Ann Coulter to have a boxing match; proceeds of which would go to the winner’s favorite charity. I would pay handsomely for a front-row seat in order to watch Ann kick his pompous ass!
