4. Definitely.....I'll certainly help keep the GD thread
on the first page also this weekend. I think among the KOEBies, this would be a fun project !

Now I don't mean *kick* for the sake of kicking, those can be annoying to some DUers (and admin/mods?). Just keep the conversation going, those work just as well !

I'm not sure I'm writing a letter to MSNBC just yet, since we're still dealing with the rumor mill media at this point. Nor am I thinking an 11pm move would be a bad thing. Remember, I'm the one who wants him to go to Koppels spot on ABC....and only get over a million more viewers!

Selfishly, I like Fresh, Live Keith at the Official KOEB 8 p.m. Does MSNBC know they have to clear this with us...LOL. Gives me an idea, to write MSNBC's feedback and inform them that any Keith moves have to be cleared with us first, or we want The Tie back <snort>.

Has anyone put a link to the GD thread in the Lounge? Politics? 4ERD? I mean, I wouldn't spam them with the OP, just drop in, say hi and direct them to Crispi's GD link :)

Ok, I'm done, thanks for putting up with my dribbles :loveya:

5. Exactly.
if someone says they wrote a letter, and someone else says THANKS, it's just as good as a kick!

and if he moves to 11pm EST -- he'd be up against Jon Stewart in a lot of markets, right? Plus, damn, the show on tape would just not be quite as much fun, IMO...

It hasn't been posted anywhere yet-- feel free! :thumbsup:

6. What amazes me
is that while various columnist-pundits on the TV news anchor shakeups at the big networks have suggested many possibilities for replacements for various anchors, while some have actually proposed replacing them with Jon Stewart, not a one has mentioned replacing any of them with KO.

Yes, that's right, the guy who reports FAKE news in a funny way is getting more serious consideration from them than the guy who reports REAL news in both a serious and a funny way.

Amazingly enough, one columnist (and I believe this was in the WSJ!) suggested that these shows should consider more innovative means of telling the news. Such as...using *puppets.*

I am not kidding.

And this columnist mentioned KO's name not once.
