CNN buzzing about MSNBC/FNC attack ads…
BC Beat’s Anne Becker blogs about the HLN Prime 2nd Anniversary party where attack ads were the subject of discussion…
Among the huddled masses having cocktails at the Time Warner Center’s “home of the future” Tuesday night were HP’s Nancy Grace and AJ Hammer, along with CNN prime’s Paula Zahn and CNN Worldwide chief Ken Jautz, who oversees Headline.
No specific comments, but the competition’s negative ads did come up in various conversations, mainly regarding what sort of response - if any - would be most appropriate from CNN. In any case, the ads didn’t cast any pall over Headline’s well attended event. Guests stayed well past the planned conclusion at 8 p.m., listening to the pumped-in jazz and nibbling on fish and chips and potato pancakes.
UPDATE: Here’s a photo from the event with (from left to right) AJ Hammer, Nancy Grace, Glenn Beck, and Headline News head Ken Jautz.



For some reason, AJ looks a little “deer in headlights”-ish, though it’s a nice picture, never thought Grace was that short or the men were that tall.
