msnbc: The Place for POLLitics

People do not remember but the entire quote went:

"If I've lost Cronkite, I've lost Middle America. Will no one rid me of this troublesome news anchor?"

ok this Hayes guy is okay on the DNC coverage but his show seems much more promising.

there's some folks missing--mr. born on 3rd and thought he hit a triple luke russert and the foxy Tamron Hall. It's too hard to pick one semi-acceptable one. Much rather "most hated" in which case I would choose Willie Geist...is he a bro, a frat guy, a d-bag, which? He's also part of Nepotism Broadcast Corporation (son of the irritatingly unfunny Bill Geist on CBS Sunday Morning)

I guess I find Tamron the least offensive. I way, way left of MSNBC but Chris Hayes and Rachel Maddow have that NPR smugness that I just can't take

Tamron Hall is there.

I only included people that host shows, leaving off contributors like Luke because that would go on forever and I would probably have to include people like Richard Wolffe.

Chris Hayes looks like the lovechild between Rachel Maddow and Chris Hayes.

OK that's sort of funny...

Oh OK, sorry about that Gubke...xp

MHP for the win - her weekend show is awesome, they get all liberal arts seminar academic instead of just arguing about the news of the day. I like Hayes' weekend show too but I haven't seen it as much since it's on so early.

Maddow is so good at television and as an anchor of MSNBC election/convention coverage. I def enjoy watching her show but it gets a little cutesy and aggravating when she spends whole segments on silly stuff - soundbites of the day blown out of proportion, that sort of thing.

Haven't seen any of these folks since cutting cable almost a year ago. Voted for Tamron Hall because she's ridiculously hot.

the one on the right was shtupping Matt Lauer, correct?

Lockup: Raw

ok so this Chris Hayes show is pretty good.

Morbz would be pleased that Scahill has a place on cable news: http://leanforward.msnbc.com/_news/2012/09/09/13759676-america-in-the-dark-about-laws-governing-the-war-on-terror?lite

Another Jennings fan. One of my mom's formative childhood experiences was watching Jennings run through the jungle in Vietnam trying not to get shot. Kinda hard to imagine any of the above doing that.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

willie geist

Chris Hayes' monologue was pretty good today:

i liked ratigan

Me too. :(

I also liked The Abrams Report way back when...

I thought they should've given Ratigan the primetime show instead of Lawrence O'Donnell (much hate for that guy).

I even bought Ratigan's book but it was mostly a diagram with descriptive paragraphs.

yeah the ending slays. not sure about that suit tho

glasses too high on face also grates when he lifts chin.

not to mention that the glasses boast the wrong frames for that face.

basically what i meant to get at there

I'm reading his book and it's pretty good.

the msnbc dudes made me almost feel bad for rudy giuliani after the debate last night.. they basically brought him on to yell at and berate to take their debate frustrations out on. it was a pretty juvenile display..

Chris Hayes' Homeland Security zing was great though.

a real dead ringer for love

He will speak in eighteen minutes at the Miami International Book Fair.

I just finished his book -- a smart master's thesis.

That's about right, yeah. Good though.

thought that was nate silver for a second

cher already loved a gay nerd

omg @ that cher story

lol @ "the 'Believe' singer"

so the cycle is basically morning joe with younger but equally terrible people

Chris Hayes is taking over Ed Schultz's 8pm weeknight slot. Kind of bummed. I liked the 2 hour format and the long discussions it allowed.

Better than an alarm clock on Sat and Sunday morns.

very dope

Toure is so awful.

I record Up or just watch it online. It also neatly contains my msnbc watching to two days a week. I like that they can look back on a story and discuss it rather than covering the daily bullshit. I hope it stays a panel.
