Abrams Wants MSNBC exciting, vibrant, irreverent
TV Newser: Abrams Wants MSNBC To Be "A Little More" Exciting, Vibrant, & Irreverent

"Recently, pointed political shows such as Countdown with Keith Olbermann and Hardball with Chris Matthews have made some headway" on MSNBC, the AP says. "Those shows work because they are focused and viewers know what they're getting every day, Abrams said."

Quoting the new MSNBC GM: "Over the next few months, you will hopefully see the network become a little more exciting, a little more vibrant and a little more irreverent..."

1. Dan Abrams in charge
hmmm, I don't know exactly what to think about that.
One thing I do know is his show sucks.

2. That's fine with me, although I don't watch Matthews anymore.
I've been very selective lately, as to what news programs I watch. KO and Lou Dobbs are the most honest, at this point in time anyway.

I was watching CNN Headline News this morning (Robin Meade is the commentator) and they were showing * and his croonies at Camp David, and she (Robin) called him "Mr." Bush. I thought that was pretty deliberate and it made me smile!!
