13. Actually, maybe that's what's got her throat all out of shape.
Just a thought. Maybe she was messing with O'Lielly's looftah.

3. Sounds to me like she has lung cancer
Remember how Peter Jennings sounded on his last night on the air?

4. Now there's a blonde that should go missing...
Off TV would be good for me - I refuse to watch her or listen to the constant Miss Piggy with asthma impersonation. :P

5. And yet--this is who MSNBC thinks their star is. Not Keith.
Unbelievable isn't it?

8. Not bloodly likely--she's the pet of the president of MSNBC
he thinks she's a STAR! Notice the endless promos for her show? Notice that she was on all weekend, Keith wasn't? Complain. Loudly. If enough of us complain, maybe they'll at least get a new MSNBC president who can get his head out of his ass and realize who the real star around there is (hint: it ain't Rita!).

11. He must have thought the same about Fucker Calson...
Remember how much money they wasted on Promos for his show that no one watches?

15. He also thought the same about the ultra-horrid
"Connected" with Monica Crowley (and Ron Reagan). He thought so highly of that show he made the decision to run it twice a day. Let's just say that MSNBC's president isn't known for his smarts either. No wonder he likes Rita so darn much!

18. I wish they would offer RR a better opportunity.
Perhaps his own show or with a better cohost.

9. Come on now
I find Rita Crosby as annoying as the next (probably more), but name calling isn't necessary. Save it for people who really deserve it.

7. Her deep voice shouldn't be an object of criticism,
This criticism reminds me of what the Repukes do. Her voice is her voice. If you don't like it fine, but why should it be subjected to criticism. Is it O.K. to criticize people with buck teeth, thin hair, cross eyed, bow legged, high squeaky voice....

Criticize for their actions and words. Personal attacks like this are below a decent integrity level that I would think we would like to representative of us.

10. Okay--how about this?
On last night's show (Sunday) she said, "Basically I almost cried I was so moved by what I saw in New Orleans." And then there are her endless "You bet!" replies to her interview subjects. She's just dense beyond words.

12. When I was an Air Traffic Controller
my voice mattered. My reflection, and how clear I was. She is on TV and the networks want her to narrate her news reports. I believe you can be judge mental on voice. If voice is part of the job, that is.

17. I HATE her voice. I turn the channel when her show starts.
She has a face for radio, and a voice for... well.. NOTHING! :D

22. I do too.. Whenever I hear her name mentioned I switch channels
cannot bear to watch or hear her.. MSNBC made a bad deal when they "bought" her from Fox:)

20. I always think of a line in the movie "King Ralph"
when John Goodman's King Ralph character meets his "intended" -- the blonde woman. He told his assistant, "She has the voice of a tuba." That's what Rita's voice reminds me of.....
