1. Can you share how this came to pass.
I mean w/ Schuster being shunned for talking to another network, it's hard to know what to make of Dylan's moonlighting at TYT. I tend to think that he's an awesome path for drawing in more viewers, and I don't question to be critical, just sharing my observations which I guess have some scraggly ends. Does his presence in your midst mean he's for real? I see a lot of folks here claim he's a shill, as culpable as the MSM is in misinforming the masses on behalf of those with monetary might, I find it difficult to argue the point either way without more input.

What more can you tell me about this media summit in New York at the end of June?

Recommended.

3. Well
I don't know any shills that write blogs like this: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dylan-ratigan/is-your-senator-a-bankste_b_567907.html|Is Your Senator a Bankster>. But don't be convinced by one good piece, check out the rest:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dylan-ratigan

Cenk was/is in Amsterdam for a speaking engagement so Ratigan guest-hosted for a day, and since he's on vacation in LA he happened to do it in the studio. Also, Cenk has been making regular appearances on Ratigan's show lately (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqNiK_sVvUw|for example>) and the two are pretty much on the same page regarding the sham financial reform effort, corporate corruption, etc.

As for the media summit, I'm not sure what/which one you're referring to so I won't be of much help.

6. I'll try to ferret out what I can and feed back if interested, so let me know.
Thanks for the reassurance on Mr. Ratigan, I won't be looking as hard for that grain of salt now. Take care.

8. Think I found it.
During the Dylan video, small ads, bottom left screen kept blinking in with info on a 'media summit' in NY next month. Went back to look and found make up ads, but did find this through Google.

9. Shill? Have you seen his show?
You can watch segments on the MSNBC website.

Dylan rocks.

(Warning: He is not partisan. He calls out both sides.)

11. Watch it all the time. I refer to comments I have seen by others here.
I like him too, just trying to preserve faith in my own judgment about who I choose to trust. My concerns are more about management, the rock they've buried David Shuster under and their stated desire to be more like Fixed Noise. I had suspected Dylan as one of the 'good guys', seeing him in an environment like TYT serves to chase away doubts.

Both sides should be called out.
