CNN has neutered its sister network HLN. They've laid off long time personalities Carol Costello, Michaela Pereira, and Ashleigh Banfield.

"Morning Express" with Robin Meade will now air 6AM-Noon Eastern.

"On the Story" will now air Noon-3PM.

Pre-produced programming including reruns of "Forensic Files" will now air 3PM-6AM Eastern.

Brammy's thoughts: They've done this before. We'll see how long it lasts this time.

Curious why you chose the term "neutered".  This looks like garden variety cost-cutting to me.

I remember when they were Headline News back in the 80's.   Something that was
actually useful on your dial.
