Anyone know?

Anyone have any contact info for Hardball and Countdown? Thanks.

1. I'm pretty sure you can leave comments through their blog & show pages.
I could be wrong though.

3. They don't give a flying f**k what we think?
Just a guess on my part.

5. Yup. It really sucks. And it's stupid of them, in this interactive age.
I've had many reasons why I'd like to give up MSNBC for good, and this is yet another. I just like to try to keep track of all the channels, though. Oh well.

7. Not me - if it wasn't for sports, The Wire, and Mythbusters
I'd throw the TV in the trash.

Actually, Ms. T might have something to say about that too.

And I must confess I do try to catch KO when I can.

But I find out most of what news I learn right here on the good ol' internets.

6. KOlbermann@msnbc.com
I've sent mail there and actually received responses. It seems that Keith actually reads his mail and fires off a few responses at random intervals.

9. Do you blame them? I e-mailed MSNBC and NBC over the sexist frathouse known as MSNBC. nt

10. The direct e-addys (Hardball, Countdown) do NOT work. Go through the "Contact Us"
general addresses, like the viewer services somebody posted or the "Letters to (editor)" link, opening with a request that it be forwarded to Tweets or KO.

As to WHY, well, they obviously don't want to hear from us.
