Questions…About Heyward, Grace, Connected, Straka…

> A tipster described Andrew Heyward‘s current situation at CBS this way: “Dead. Long gone. History. This is not a secret at the highest levels of the CBS Corp.” Then who’s in the running to replace him?

> The Nancy Grace fan club is wondering: Is she leaving Court TV to focus on her Headline News show?

> Why is MSNBC’s “Connected: Coast to Coast” still on the air? Rumors of its imminent demise are becoming repetitive, and it’s been reduced to an hour at noon; when will it get axed completely?

> Is FOXNews.com director of operations and special projects/weekend producer/Web columnist Mike Straka entertaining several offers from publishers for a book titled “The Grrr! Lexicon?” Update: 9:59am: An insider responds: “Mike Straka doesn’t even own the rights to the web column so the notion that a book is being shopped to publishers is entirely inaccurate and nothing but overzealous self-promotion.”
