bye bye bill

It's a sad day for CNN. I got this tidbit of somber news sent to me from EMC:

Miles O'Brien to Co-Anchor CNN's American Morning with Soledad O'Brien
Miles O'Brien, co-anchor of CNN's Live From, will join American Morning as co-anchor with Soledad O'Brien starting Monday, June 20, it was announced today by Jon Klein, president of CNN/U.S. Bill Hemmer plans to leave the network to pursue other opportunities, while Jack Cafferty will join The Situation Room, a new afternoon news program, to provide commentary and insight.

I'm thrilled to see the lifeless and unlikeable Jack Cafferty go. (I've been fantasizing for years that Buffy would burst in one morning and drive a stake through his undead shell.)
But Bill Hemmer's departure simply breaks my heart. Not only is he the hottest man in TV news, he's also the only member of American Morning who I actually look forward to seeing every day. My morning coffee will be a wee bit colder come June 20.
Dare I flip back to Katie and Matt? Has it really come to that?
