Miss America Finds A New Home

After ABC abandoned its pageant child, Miss America, last year, the program was network-less for eight months. Thanks to the country music network, CMT, the gorgeous ladies from all over the country have a home again. A two-year deal was struck between the pageant and the network to begin next January with possibilities of a renewal until 2011. But it seems the pretty ladies are not too happy about their move from ABC to CMT. "I feel like they're going to alienate a whole segment of their viewership because not everybody knows CMT or would even watch CMT," said Miss America 1999 Nicole Johnson Baker. "It sounds so ridiculous -- we go from ABC to CMT, and there's nothing in between?" Johnson and her fellow pageantries should be thankful they didn't instead end up on E!
