CNN wants Piers Morgan. Piers Morgan wants CNN.
If they can manage getting over one last little hurdle, the deal for Piers to replace Larry King is done.
So what’s the problem? Who else, but NBC!
Piers has a talent contract with Celebrity Apprentice, one NBC won’t be keen on letting him out of. What’s extra tricky is that NBC is rumored to be merging with CBS and there is no WAY they will let talent flock off to their rivals that easily.
Only time (and possibly some serious buy-out money) will tell if this deal can go through.
Here’s hoping for you, Ryan Seacrest Piers!
