With... reality shows?

CNN executives can't seem to even pay people to watch their network of blowhards and bores, so they are trying to think outside of the box.

Way outside of the box.

They're shopping around, talking to Hollywoods top talent agencies, and even discussing possibilities with the same production companies that supply reality shows to the Bravo, Discovery, and History channels.

This means that the equivalent of RuPaul's Drag-U could be following Anderson Cooper in CNN's primetime lineup. And, if you think about, since he just stepped out of the closet, it's not so odd.

The bottom line is this: CNN has nothing to lose. Not even viewers, since they really don't have any.
