actually, all the best people on CNN don't work for CNN

honestly, any team w/ Chuck Todd on it wins, but I've just gotten a little tired of the rest of the NBC folks.

Chuck Todd and Norah O'Donnell do not a team make, so despite loving them with all my being I had to go with CNN.

john king is pretty good as a chuck todd jr on cnn

cnn doesn't have a maddow though

cnn can't afford a maddow. their dedication to mediocrity is a cashflow issue.

I don't big-up Campbell Brown because of blogosphere-theatrics

well to my mind that leaves 2 options that separate her from the rest of the herd of goats:

1. you would blap?
2. she blaps a bland hack?

El Tomboto, Saturday, 4 October 2008 05:53 (fifteen years ago) link

Note that I went out of my way to not actually call you a bland hack

cnn has better mid-day anchors actually

they have a guy on during the day whose name i cannot remember (black guy) who is better than whichever faceless blonde does the msnbc mid-day stuff

all I need to know about CNN is how coop went out of his way to prove himself worthy of a field correspondent job and they immediately found a way to chain him to a desk so he could help carry the imperial crest of dishwater

El Tomboto, Saturday, 4 October 2008 05:55 (fifteen years ago) link

for an all-star team i'd take maddow, todd, colbert, letterman, joy behar and diddy. and pat buchanan just to rile up the rest of them.

Wolf Blitzer is the upper middle class Jewish Jim Lehrer

all I need to know about gabbneb country is that it is a place where this sentence makes sense

El Tomboto, Saturday, 4 October 2008 05:57 (fifteen years ago) link

pat buchanan brings heat

a passion for posting (J0rdan S.), Saturday, 4 October 2008 05:58 (fifteen years ago) link

why would you take pat buchanan when biweekly glenn beck guest The Nuge is available?

El Tomboto, Saturday, 4 October 2008 05:58 (fifteen years ago) link

nevermind nuge, i'd take glenn beck himself. but he'd be in a cage, naked.

tipsy mothra, Saturday, 4 October 2008 05:59 (fifteen years ago) link

and slavering.

tipsy mothra, Saturday, 4 October 2008 06:00 (fifteen years ago) link

(anyway the nuge will be busy in his new weekly hunting show with sarah palin. next week: ted 'n' sarah vs. bighorn rams in heat!)

You think Blitzer and King make less than she does?
