Nancy Grace: Two Newspaper Stories

Ned Martel, Los Angeles Times: “Headline News credits her with pulling it ahead of MSNBC in the cable news rankings, from fourth place to third. ‘We get an enormous response from viewers, and even those who disagree with her can’t stop watching her. That’s her magic,’ said one CNN executive who requested anonymity because the network did not want to acknowledge any negative feedback from viewers.”

Gail Shister, Philadelphia Inquirer: “Though she’s leading CNN Headline News to record ratings, Nancy Grace says it’s not about the digits. ‘This is not a popularity contest,’ explains Grace, a former prosecutor, about her legal-affairs program. ‘My purpose is to shine light on the justice system. I don’t concern myself with ratings. I know you can be up one day, down the next.'”
