Any show on CNN Headline News.

I'll never understand why they decided that commentary shows were necessary on that network, anyway.

Glenn Beck is...nevermind.

The O'Reilly
Nancy Grace, especially that one lady who goes on and makes funny faces, anybody know who I'm referring to?

Bonus clips of Nancy Grace receiving a pwn or two:

Nancy Grace. At least O'Reilly and Beck are unintentionally funny most of the time. She's just unwatchable.

Oh and Lou Dobbs deserves a spot on the list.

I agree with GM3, Greta is pretty bad.

Grace and Olberman are probably my two least favorite.

Greta can be alright when it's something interesting shes speaking on. Ditto on Olberman big time.

Olbermann's show was great in the first couple of years, but then he became a total hack and now his show sucks.

All shows on CNN Headline News and FOX News are complete trash though as are Lou Dobbs and the Situation Room.  I find myself enjoying the major networks (ABC/NBC) more these days.  Cable news has quickly turned from 100% news to 60% opinion, 40% news.

You forgot to squeeze in there 15% or so for "missing white woman".

The unique misfortune of the Palestinian refugees is that they are a weapon in what seems to be a permanent war...today, in the Middle East, you get a repeated sinking sensation about the Palestinian refugees: they are only a beginning, not an end. Their function is to hang around and be constantly useful as a goad. The ultimate aim is not such humane small potatoes as repatriating refugees.

Or Celebrity News. That's what the first two letters in CNN stand for.

Greta never has anything interesting on. She looks like a darn stroke victim.
