23. My exposure to Eugene Robinson on MSNBC
Edited on Mon Apr-20-09 03:15 PM by TheDebbieDee
is one of the good things to come out of the Don Imus flap from 2 or 3 years ago. MSNBC began to feature other African-Americans on their panels and Eugene Robinson was one of the panelists.

ETA: Congrats, Gene. You deserve it!

25. I vividly remember him on the night Obama won the Election.
Keith O. asked him to speak about it a few minutes after the declaration was made that Obama won. It was wonderful.
