April 2nd, 2012 5:54 PM
Soledad O'Brien's CNN show is suffering some pretty horrific ratings, and yet she still had the gall to ask Rick Santorum's communications director why the candidate won't drop out of the presidential race. The quarterly numbers for O'Brien's morning show Starting Point were the lowest in more than a decade at CNN for that time slot, in fact. She averaged less than 100,000 viewers per day…

Soledad O'Brien's Guests 3-to-1 Democratic, In Favor of ObamaCare

March 28th, 2012 12:45 PM
Apparently, Soledad O'Brien's idea of a balanced discussion is three-to-one Democratic majority.
