Piers Morgan Tonight Facing Cancellation?
By “Bad” Brad Berkwitt
EW.com is reporting that Piers Morgan’s the new CNN talk show host who took over Larry King’s spot in the interview chair has lost a significant chunk of TV viewers in just his second night on the air.
Shock Jock Howard Stern was his guest, on Piers Morgan Tonight which delivered a reported 1.3 million viewers Tuesday night which was down a whopping 38 percent from his Monday premiere, which featured TV Icon Oprah Winfrey.
Stern as he always is was out of control when he ripped into Jay Leno calling him a “crook,” “insane,” and “not fit to scrub David Letterman’s feet.”
With ratings dropping so quickly, TV viewers are going to have to sit and wait to see if Morgan’s show stays on the air. He has very large shoes to fill with Larry King no longer in the interviewer chair.
