Greta Hot, Carlson Not, TV Guide Says

TV Guide’s Stephen Battaglio has prepared a What’s Hot/What’s Not list for cable TV, and guess who’s on the list? Greta Van Susteren is hot: “Viewers are flocking to her” for Natalee Holloway updates, Battaglio writes. But Tucker Carlson is not: “A tough start for MSNBC’s new entry, with the bow-tied conservative commentator averaging just 214,000 viewers since its June 13 debut. MSNBC’s audience for the hour is down 24 percent from a year ago. Maybe Carlson should have old buddy Jon Stewart on as a guest.”
