But they're not monopolizing the fun at the once-dominant news channel, now in its third (fourth? fifth?) year of trying to figure out how to be what it used to be.

"Watching Miles (O'Brien) handle 'Live From,' where he was paired with a smart, vibrant, fun, female anchor" -- Kyra Phillips -- "and seeing how generous he was in sharing the spotlight and supporting and helping the co-anchor to shine; to me he's the perfect complement to Soledad, who is smart, vibrant, fun . . . and the mother of four."

My only worry about CNN's funfest is that, sooner or later, Daddy's gonna take the T-bird away....
