Daily Commentary – Friday, November 13th, 2009 – Lou Dobbs Resigns from CNN

• Lou Dobbs on the market for other work, which probably means he’s courting Fox. One of CNN’s originals resigns from CNN.

Mr. Klein would not say whether the settlement CNN had come to with Mr. Dobbs precluded his working for another television news outlet for any period of time. “I can’t really get into the details of any settlement,” he said.

Mr. Klein denied that any of the groups that had protested Mr. Dobbs’s occasionally outspoken positions on issues like illegal immigration had influenced the move. Specifically, he denied making any promises to Alex Nogales of the National Hispanic Media Coalition, who met with Mr. Klein last Friday to discuss Mr. Dobbs.
