It's Kathy Griffin who's been cut off ... by CNN, because she was just fired by the network, which means she will not ring in 2018 with Anderson Cooper.

The network is reacting to the photo Kathy took, holding a bloody, beheaded image of Donald Trump. Her apology clearly wasn't enough for CNN.

As we reported, Anderson Cooper also lashed out at his former co-host and friend, saying, "For the record, I am appalled by the photo shoot Kathy Griffin took part in. It is clearly disgusting and completely inappropriate."

Griffin did the New Year's Eve special since 2007.

Why? Why does a fake news network care if she is on or not? It's not like she is going to hurt their credibility anymore XD

Because CNN isn't actually fake news. You've just been fed a narrative from the actual fake news sources that makes you think so. Wake up. :u Get Trump's dick out of your mouth.

I don't watch tv, I go to parties and maybe a regular network is on just for the countdown (but not always). Why would you watch tv at all on new years?

All media pushes a narrative. At least CNN is more rooted in reality than Fox News and Breitbart are.

She's a great example of reverse sexism. If a man were as unfunny and talentless as her, his show biz career would have ended in the 80s.

Yes I'm sure all major media outlets are slightly better than the opposing networks.

Instead you could go to independent outlets or literally anything but the big 5 media.

Saying CNN is better than Fox or Breit is like saying Castro was better than Chapo.

I heard the reason that Netflix changed its rating system was because Amy Schumer's special was so badly rated by everyone who watched it.

Their new ratings system was in a testing phase, that incident simply sped up the official rollout.

She only does on New Year's. Ever since 2007 her and Anderson Cooper have hosted a New Year's show. I've caught parts of it a few times, seems alright tbh.
