Tucker Carlson is parting ways with CNN and Crossfire is getting axed. The official story is that Tuck is leaving to host a 9pm show over at MSNBC (sucks to be Deborah Norville), but I'm giving all the credit to Jon Stewart on this one. Jonathan Klein as much as admits it.
UPDATE: the more I think about it, the more I feel that it is CNN's great shame that they're keeping Robert Novak, hypocrite extraordinaire and Douchebag of Liberty, on board. Yeah, Tucker isn't anchor material (for evidence, see his stint filling in for Aaron Brown last week) and he was reportedly demanding his own show, but at least he's not evil. Novak, on the other hand, is aggressively so. Keeping him on the payroll is giving CNN all kinds of bad karma.
