She's a presstitute. She works for money and CNN offered her more of it.

Probably got better huors with a fatter paycheck. People move on from one place to another in tv infotainment land all the time. I won't be seeing her any more if she's on CNN...FoxNews loss is CNN's gain I guess.

I wonder if she had her baby? And if that might not have had something to do with her jumping over. BTW...what were you doing over at CNN anyway? That network is vile.

She goes from the higher rated show to what is basically an infomercial.. I'd rethink my representation if I were her.

She was annoying.

What happened to Juliet Huddy and Mike (forgot the last name)? They used to do a show in the afternoon (Dayside?).

Sounds like if he has the same agent as his wife, chances are, not likely.

Kiran was one of my favorites at Fox. She should be sitting in Gretchen's chair.

That show went syndicated - check your listings for a time and station near you...

The Morris Agency would seem to be the fly in the ointment. There seems to be quite a thin line between agents and road-agents.

i wonder what clause she wanted included in her contract they considered to be detrimental to other talent? i do like her better than Gretchen. Gretchen strikes me as a bit too dim, and i don't see a lot of chemistry between her and brian/steve.

The have a show on Fox in the morning. I think it is called "The Mike & Juliet Show".

I liked her, too, but it sounds like she showed a lack of good judgment here. Wonder if this will make things difficult for her hubby, a weather guy. Is he still there?

She was a lot more likeable than Gretchen. I don't think E.D. is a good fit for what she does now.

Maybe she was frustrated with having to be on Fox at 6:00 am and then go off the air when Gretchen started at 7:00. Plus she had to work every weekend.

She has always been a closet liberal. She would let her rabid dim side out on FnF's on occasion.

lately it has seemed that all 3 mainstays were on from 6am most days. in the past i thought only one of the regs was on early and they had 2 second stringers in for the first hour.

Gretchen just seems to lack energy. She doesn't have a good sense of humor. CNN got a better deal. I hate CNN, so I guess I will not see Kiran anymore.

I don't think its always a "lack of good judgment" if someone leaves a network we like for one we don't.Probably strictly a business decision and one many of us may make in our lifetimes.

I could understand that. And I'm sure the net would've, too. But if that was the slot they had for her, and she didn't like it, she was free to go elsewhere. There needn't have been any acrimony. Sounds like Chetry and her agent ticked off the net. Not a smooth move.

I'm still trying to figure out whatever happened to Chris Kurl (sp?) on CNN? Her husband also worked there (Dan Farmer?). I can't get a rise out of Google on them.

I think biting the hand that feed you in rarely a good idea. If Chetry does well at CNN, fine. But she'd've been off leaving FNC with some good will still there. You never know when you might need it.

Well, because we like them doesn't mean they are always right or fair. And, it appears they leaked their own letter on the evening they'd lost her to CNN, however it happened. I'd like to hear her side of it.

Makes you wonder when someone like Kiran was there before Gretchen, why she didn't get E.D. Hills position. Does anyone know where that Weekend guy, Julian went? I didn't like him, and I am not too fond of their weekend show anymore.
