CNN Headline News now HLN?

I noticed this yesterday evening between wretches (I have a stomach virus). What gives? No mention of them being connected with CNN. With all of their salacious programming and sensationalistic coverage, are they aiming for the Fox News audience??? Removing the CNN brand so more Fox viewers will tune in? Who are they kidding?

They say here that the change is in the tradition of their TBS and TNT spinoffs. It does look like it's going to feature talk programs like Nancy Grace and the former Glenn Beck. I don't watch that channel (haven't even watched cable news since the election was over already), so I don't know what it's like. All I know is that I got tired of hearing Nancy Grace talk after hearing her twice, several years ago. That's pretty much how I feel about Hannity, Matthews, Limbaugh, and Olbermann, so it's not targeting people like me, apparently.

Sorry you're sick!

If ever I wished someone's tongue would cleave to the roof their mouth, it is Nancy Grace.
