CNN drops Eliot Spitzer TV talk show

LOS ANGELES - CNN has canceled its television talk show hosted by former New York governor Eliot Spitzer, despite a major revamp less than six months ago.
Announcing its fall TV schedule on Wednesday, CNN said that Anderson Cooper's nightly news program AC360 will air in the slot now occupied by Spitzer's "In the Arena".
Spitzer, who debuted his new show on CNN in October 2010 with Washington Post columnist Kathleen Parker, was not mentioned in the line-up. Parker left the show in February after disappointing ratings, and the show was revamped with Spitzer continuing as the main contributor.
