Greta Van Susteren jumps from CNN to Fox News Channel

NEW YORK - CNN personality Greta Van Susteren is jumping to Fox News Channel, continuing the lively rivalry between the two cable news networks. <br> <br> Van Susteren rose to prominence at CNN as an on-air legal analyst during the O.J. Simpson trials. She was until recently host of two daily programs on CNN. <br> <br> Fox News Channel has been searching for someone to be host of its 10 p.m. talk show since Paula Zahn left for CNN in September, a move that caused some bitterness at Fox. <br> <br> CNN announced Van Susteren&#39;s departure in a memo to its staff on Wednesday. Fox said it expected an announcement shortly. <br> <br> In addition to filling a prime-time slot at Fox, Van Susteren&#39;s departure creates a hole at CNN. She had most recently been host of ``The Point,&#39;&#39; a show created for her, that ran at 8 p.m. Eastern Time. <br> <br> Van Susteren had also been a co-host of the daytime legal program ``Burden of Proof,&#39;&#39; but that was cancelled after the September 11th terrorist attacks. Roger Cossack, her co-host on that show, was let go by CNN last month. <br> <br> ``The Point&#39;&#39; was pre-empted frequently for news. CNN was regularly running a ``Live from Afghanistan&#39;&#39; program in the time slot over the holidays. <br> <br> Kate Snow will replace Van Susteren on ``The Point,&#39;&#39; at least temporarily.
