Who should take Imus's spot on MSNBC?

[59millionmorons]

My vote goes for Stephanie Miller. Not that MSNBC will even replace Imus.

[Gman]

1. RANDI RHODES!!

[Catchawave]

4. She would be GREAT !

:toast:

[AZBlue]

24. That's who I was going to say too!

eom

[Captain Hilts]

2. She would have to get up at 3am. Tony Kornheiser. nt

[gratuitous]

3. I humbly suggest

The gratuitous Hour of Glower. :evilgrin:

[BonnieJW]

5. Why don't they try something brand new

and report real news?

[jobycom]

13. That would be so cool! nt

[MaineDem]

21. Quite a concept

I'd like to see that.

[lazyriver]

6. Sam Seder...he's available starting Monday

[shaniqua6392]

7. Do you really think that they are going to put someone on

like Stephanie or Randi?? How funny. They just got rid of a Bush/Cheney/Iraq War loud spoken critic and they are not going to replace him with anything remotely progressive. KO is all we are going to get. Just cuz Imus is gone does not mean they have suddenly gone progressive on us...Exactly the opposite. The corporate big shots who love Bush for making them richer are not very tolerant of anyone who criticizes like Imus did. Just my opinion.

8. If a Democrat gets a position during that

time slot, I will be amazed. At least one that can
be identified as Democrat. Phil Donohue was fired
for political reasons.

9. Self Delete

10. Bush & Cheney

Keep them busy there so they can't do anything at the White House

I wonder how much the American people would be able to put up with if they are on every day.

11. I would call for an intellectual significant Black host to get his or her own show.

This would, in my mind, not include the likes of Jesse or Al. Or the Armstrong Williams/Joe Watkins/Ron Christy types.

It would include people like Kweisi Mfume, Joe Madison, Lannie Guinnier, some local market 'urban' radio talker, a true academic, a Eugene Robinson (already seen on MSNBC), people of this general ilk. Serious minded but personable. Smart and informed, but not stuffy. Ed Bradley (RIP, Ed) would have been perfect.

I'm not even looking for a known 'liberal' so much as an honest broker of sound discussion.

[NYCGirl]

12. Probably reruns of Countdown, Hardball and Scarborough. Very cost effective.

[Dinger]

14. Mike Malloy!

Yeah, that's the ticket!

[59millionmorons]

19. Political show

If they would replace Imus, I dont think it would be a political person, but someone who could interview politicians as well as musicians and actors.

[jobycom]

15. They'll probably give it to Michael Richards. nt

[bmbmd]

16. Replace hate radio with the voice of civility-

BARTCOP.

[itcfish]

17. Rush Limbaugh

Because he can get away with murder

[primative1]

23. Hmm ...

Man would I love to get my hands on a list of Limbaughs advertisers and compare it to the ones that dumped IMUS.
Might be some fun to be had with this thing yet.

[Donnachaidh]

18. Thom Hartmann -- he's brilliant

He might even get those yo-yo listeners to smarten the hell up, too. We don't NEED any more entertainers on air -- we need EDUCATORS on the air.

20. What was posted in jest yesterday in the Lounge...

Steph would be ideal.

22. Andrew Dice Clay.
