Shelley Ross May Have Increased Early Show's Viewership
But she also blew her budget and made everyone miserable, so, there's that

shelleyross.jpg While some folks are doing silly things like worrying about the future of The Early Show, others can't help but look to the past. Turns out, during Shelley Ross' tenure running the CBS morning show, viewership may have actually increased. Number crunching TVNewser reveals audience figures may have eeked upward, with a net gain of 64,000 viewers. Nothing substantial, but that's certainly a better direction than the alternative. But with Radar's bullet-pointed list of all of Ross' missteps – her No. 2 that never left; making weatherman Dave Price miserable by flying him around the country on costly assignments; never answering email; and, oh, that demoralizing of staffers – perhaps maybe hypothetically possibly potentially theoretically it wasn't enough to keep her from getting canned?

    Oh pplleeeeaaase! The CBS number had a hiccup on the chart because of the policy change not permitting the local stations to run their local programming during portions of the program.

    Then there's the voyeur factor after the stories of the rantings and tantrums.

    And the photo is so extensively Photoshopped that
    it looks a mock up of
    her version of what only she sees when she looks in the mirror. the rest of wouldn't recognize it was her in the photo.
