Wolf Blitzer uses Twitter to explain why CNN is in last place
November 19, 2009 by William K. Wolfrum
When a network goes from exceedingly popular to not very popular, generally there’s a reason. CNN’s Wolf Blitzer’s Twitter stream gives us those reasons. From Wolf:
CNN Jessica Yellin did a very good report in SitRoom on Sarah Palin and her sexuality — the fact that she’s good looking. Did you see it?
Why is the conservative base of the GOP apparently so much more energized right now than the liberal base of the Democratic Party?
Just finished a photo shoot for “Every Day with Rachael Ray” for the Celeb Fridge Page. March issue.
Major Hasan visited a strip club in Killeen even as he prayed five times a day. We’ll assess with a Muslim scholar today in SitRoom.
Quite a debate between Jamie Rubin* and Ben Stein** on Larry King Live. At issue: trying terror suspects in NYC.
Father David O’Connell, president of The Catholic University in DC, comes into The SitRoom today to discuss gay marriage and abortion.
Former Bush Attorney General Alberto Gonzales comes into Sitroom today to react to AG Eric Holder’s decision to try 9/11 detainees in NYC.
Biden is VP. The other Obama finalists were Evan Bayh and Tim Kaine. Hillary Clinton wasn’t in the final three. Was it the right call?
Don’t believe Anderson. It smells terrific in the Situation Room. Play the #CNNChallenge today www.cnnchallenge.com
From the Clinton Playbook. President Obama’s job summit next month reminds me of all the summits Bill Clinton used to host as President.
Exactly a year ago, I was thinking about what I would say on CNN when I reported Barack Obama had won the election. Time really zips by.
Enjoy last place, Wolf. Make yourself comfortable, you’ll be there for a while.
* AKA Mr. Christiane Amanpour.
AKA The Creationist who has compared Obama to Hitler, advised investors to buy five minutes before entire financial world crumbled, etc., etc.

My parents are convinced that he is blackmailing someone for his timeslot on CNN.
During the Foot Hood shootings he asked a woman living on the base: “What is a ‘Dollar General’? ” And asked a commander or someone else of authority on the base “What happens during a lock down? Take me through it.”
I’ll answer both of those questions now, Wolf.
A Dollar General is a store.
During a lock down, the gates are closed and people are not allowed on or off.
Most likely Wolf follow up: Has the Dollar General been locked down? Do you know?
sorry, meant Fort not ‘foot’.
The ‘SitRoom’? Isn’t that where Larry Craig got into trouble in a Minnesota airport? A Catholic priest is in the SitRoom to discuss gay marriage? Was Sen. Tap-Toe himself ‘in situ’ for some lively discussion?
Good on Wolf for making his ‘SitRoom’ smell better, though — did he spray some Glade? (Of course, Raid would have been more appropriate.)
