Lou Dobbs, the longtime CNN anchor whose anti-immigration views have made him a TV lightning rod, plans to announce Wednesday that he is leaving the network, two network employees said.
A CNN executive confirmed that Mr. Dobbs will announce his resignation plans on his 7 p.m. program. His resignation is effective immediately; tonight’s program will be his last on CNN. His contract was not set to expire until the end of 2011.
Good riddance. I’m gonna go with four months as the over/under for when he gets his own show at Fox News.

My immediate assumption when I saw this article’s headline was that he was jumping to Fox. How long it will take depends on what kind of non-compete agreements his contract with CNN has, if any.

TPM reports:
There has been speculation for weeks that Dobbs might leave CNN — perhaps for the Fox Business Network.

Oh, I’m not even questioning the if, just the when.

Bye Bye CNN. Lou Dobbs was the only reason I watched you.
