CNN could bring on a comedian such as Bill Maher or Jon Stewart to fill the gaping hole in its primetime lineup left by Chris Cuomo, according to a new report.

Ratings-challenged CNN may try to bring on a comedian such asor Jon Stewart to fill the gaping hole in its primetime lineup, according to a new report.

CNN has been without a 9 p.m. host since Chris Cuomo was fired by previous management in 2021, and a series of temporary replacements have largely failed to resonate with viewers as CNN finished 2022 with dreadful viewership.

Stewart is under contract with Apple and would presumably require a hefty payday, which could make him a difficult target for CNN’s parent company, Warner Bros. Discovery, which has laid off hundreds of employees in recent months to cut costs. Maher currently works for Warner Bros. Discovery’s HBO, although it’s unclear if he would be interested in toning things down for a gig at CNN. The more coarse language and subject matter found on his show"Real Time" would likely be a nonstarter on a cable news program."They’re looking for their version of John Oliver," an insider told Semafor, which noted CNN honchos have also discussed turning 9 p.m. through midnight into some sort of variety program.
