I don't find him nearly as insufferable as guys like Hannity, O'Donnell and Maddow.

Piers wasn't as bad as a whole package. But his anti 2nd amendment rhetoric was too much and turning a hell of a lot of people off.

CNN's going down the tubes. Jeff Zucker's ruining that network.

My bigger question is how does Jeff Zucker still continue to run major networks. He destroyed NBC almost single handedly with his stupid decisions, and CNN's ratings started dropping the second he was brought on board. This tool has the Midas Touch, only instead of turning anything into gold, he turns it into shite.

I wonder if this is the result of any potential fallout from the UK phone-tapping scandal. He was questioned by the police quite recently.

The first sentence of the article says it all, ee made a habit of smugly bashing America by pointing out how much better England had handled a similar situation. Now he has no reason to hang around an complain, hope the only thing CNN gives him now is a one way ticket on the red eye to Heathrow.

my whole problem with Piers is who the hell is he to judge Americans on their laws? He should be thankful he hasn't been deported

Piers is awful. He's in the same category as Hannity and Matthews. I like O'Reily a little better, but they're all partisan hacks.

I couldn't stand the guy. I really want to punch him in the mouth.

I've been watching CNN more lately since they put the chick from CNBC on. I can tolerate Cooper. Chris Wallace is my favorite on Fox but he is usually only on Sundays.

Either way, about an hour within the 24 hour cycle is all I can take unless it's FoxBusiness or CNBC.

All-around, he wasn't really THAT bad. What destroyed him was his own constant crusade against guns. People in America like their guns. They don't like someone who turns their news show into an anti-gun obsession. They SURE don't like a Brit with a elitist air about him condescending to them about their guns. It's insulting. HE thought he'd been seen as a "rational third-party observer making reasoned recommendations" but he came off as a snooty Englishman telling us how to run our country.

Rarely were there extended periods of time on his show where I didn't want to vomit.
