CNN brings Crossfire back with S.E. Cupp, Obama aide Van Jones

Recently-installed CNN Worldwide President Jeff Zucker continues to shake up the cable network’s model, reviving the old debate show “Crossfire” with a new crew of yellers: the right’s S.E. Cupp and Newt Gingrich pitted against former Obama aides Van Jones and Stephanie Cutter.

“Few programs in the history of CNN have had the kind of impact on political discourse that Crossfire did — it was a terrific program then, and we believe the time is right to bring it back and do it again,” said Zucker. “We look forward to the opportunity to host passionate conversation from all sides of the political spectrum. Crossfire will be the forum where America holds its great debates.”
