Taking their cue from the Obama administration’s war on FOX News, a reported cited by TV Newser indicates that both CNN and NBC Universal have banned their talent from appearing on Don Imus’ morning show, which recently started simulcasting on television’s FOX Business Network.
Have MSNBC and CNN executives, in fact, implemented such a policy?An MSNBC spokesperson declined to comment. But a source at the network told The Observer that Imus viewers are unlikely to see anyone from MSNBC on the show anytime soon, if ever.
As for Mr. Dobbs’ absence on Imus today, a CNN spokesperson confirmed that the network did not give approval for the booking, eventually resulting in the cancellation.
Earlier this month, Imus mocked CNBC’s Charlie Gasparino after he also had to cancel an appearance.
