It seems to us there is much more to this story. According to the story, Dobbs announced he was leaving to his staff just this afternoon. And coming so soon after that weird story about gunshots at Dobbs’ house raising at least the shadow of a red flag. Whatever one thinks of Lou Dobbs, he did have a pretty big audience. CNN can’t really do much worse than its last place ranking among news channels.
Stay tuned for updates.
