“In a memo from President Jeff Zucker, obtained by TPM”
I hope TPM sources had to at least slightly stab a couple of people to obtain this info. Otherwise, meh.

Shorter memo: Crowley is getting too old and she dissed Romney, so we asked for her resignation.

So is Fox going to break the blond, thin mold for women reporters and hire Crowley? The way she has been “reporting” lately for CNN shows that she would be a good fit, if only she was. . . . .
(This isn’t really a reply to any previous comment. For some reason I can’t just “comment”, I had to hit reply to get the text box to appear. And yes, I know about the Romney debate question, that was eons ago in media years.)

Have to admit, Candy is one of the very few anchors I ever wanted to thank – a little bit.

she has made the decision to move on
First her pet monkey died and then her ex-director/current butler noticed a handsome, young screenwriter hiding his car in her garage…

Not a chance. Despite her right leanings, she burned bridges by correcting Romney during the debate. The only way she gets a gig on Fox, is to be a female Colmes…positioned as a liberal for their viewers to heap ridicule and humiliation upon.

How much you wanna bet they put John King in that seat of hers. They just can’t figure out where to put the asshole, and failing-up is CNN’s official trademark.
So, Heeeeeeere’s Johnny…
BTW, Crowley was putting on more Dems and liberals on her show in the last several weeks than any of her competitors. So who knows which way she’ll tack.

Yeah, I expect she has too much to overcome to break the FOX model. You know, giving the election to Obama and all.

And I remember for days after, she bent over backwards seeming to apologize for what she did - like SHE was in the wrong. I respected her the night of the debate for calling bullshit on what Romney was saying but her behavior after - scared to take ownership of what she did - really widened my eyes to what a coward she is.
It’s disgusting how many “liberal” media anchors kow-tow to the right wing. No integrity, no backbone, no resolve.
Good riddance. Now on to the next stooge.

“Zucker also referenced Crowley’s role in 2012 as the first woman to moderate a presidential debate since 1992.”
I bet he did. It’s probably a major reason she’s ended up leaving. NO amount of Sunday morning GOP/Teatroll bootlicking on her Sunday morning Watch Me Bootlick These GOP/Teatroll Guests show will make up for her fact-checking of Mittens…not as far as the conservatives are concerned…and CNN is DESPERATELY trying to win over Faux market share…has been for several years now it seems.
So this is the state of big money journalism? She gets praised for actually fact checking a lie in real time? WTF!
And they wonder why no one expects real reporting from the MSM.

I never ever thought of her as a liberal-her coverage of the 1996 campaign was one long commercial for Bob Dole.
