I have learned that Joy Behar will leave HLN at the end of the year. Behar, who has hosted her primetime talk show on the CNN sibling since 2009, is in the final year of her contract there. She has done well on HLN, where her The Joy Behar Show is the second-highest-rated behind Nancy Grace. “It just felt it was time for everyone,” an insider said. Comedian-writer-actress Behar will continue as a co-host of ABC’s The View, where she is under a long-term deal, while also exploring new opportunities, possibly within HLN’s parent company Turner Broadcasting. At HLN, Behar was one of two anchors to juggle a primetime cable talker and a daytime show, along with Grace, who left the syndicated Swift Justice this past summer to focus on her HLN program.

"It just felt like it was time..." What a crock. If that show had done as well as they'd hoped, there was no way ANYONE would have thought that "it was time" for it to end.

Again, everyone has their own tastes but for me Behar's overbearing, rude and unfunny. And yes, I'm a liberal (of sorts), just not a braindead one.

Behar is an unbearable tool.

The End

Good start. Now if every other show on HLN would end... it'd be nice to once again be able to turn on a cable channel at night and watch live news.
