?1413477288Jane Velez Mitchell is a loud voice for Human and Animal rights. Taking her off the air would be a grave disservice to both! Please reconsider your decision and leave Jane's show on HLN.
Jane Velez Mitchell is an award winning Journalist who has made it her mission to expose ills in our society today. She has covered stories from child-sexual abuse to the Taiji Dolphin slaughters, from murder victims to dog fights.
Jane is a voice that seeks and demands truth about every topic in our country and around the world.
By canceling the Jane Velez Mitchell show you are taking a voice away from the voiceless. You are muting an advocate that fights. CNN/HLN you are wrong about this decision. Please hear our voice and give JVM back hers.

(14,449 posts)They are never going to cancel Nancy Grace's show. she is the number one show for the network by far. They would lose the network if they cancel her show. The way networks works is ratings. If a show does not get ratings, it gets canceled. It is a shame that networks were charities but they aren't and need to make money. A show that does not have viewers like Jane-Valez Mitchell's show would be cancelled on any network.

(14,449 posts)That is why it was cancelled. Perhaps asking CSPAN to let her have a show is a better option. It would be free for CSPAN, but she can express herself to those who are interested in a show with her.

MoonRiver
(36,926 posts)We're going to work like hell to bring her back.

(14,449 posts)But who is going to pay for the show? The advertisers won't with that low amount of devoted viewers. The network must make money. They aren't with her show.
MoonRiver
(36,926 posts)That's the point of the petition!

(14,449 posts)You have a long road ahead. One thing the fans of Jerico did when CBS cancelled their show was sent the network a million pounds of nuts. For "Are you nuts"? It worked and they changed their minds. Worth a shot.

(36,926 posts)I think we also need to start a fb page dedicated to bringing her back.
