This has nothing to do with anything current so forgive me. I was cruising around the net, bored, and I came across a dialogue you had way back in June of 2007 with a guy named "StealThisOpinion" on the Olberman Watch blog. I am STILL laughing! I have no idea who you are--or who that guy was, but you were fantastic! "StealThis" was a moron and in a very calm and intelligent way, you really made him look like a total fool! Thanks for my laugh of the week--maybe even year! I'm going to check out your site. Thanks again!

I think the move with Nora O'Donell reflects the fact that Tim Russert is gone.
Russert may not have been in charge of MSNBC, but they wouldn't have treated Nora so backhandedly if he were still around.
She was one of his chickens, as was Chuck Todd and the late David Bloom.

They're unable to offer a decent critique of what's on the mains today, I guess.

From Panic at MSNBC-NYP article:
Meanwhile, the ratings for Rachel Maddow's show have declined over the last month, leaving another spy to say, "The bloom is off the rose."

Rachel Maddow-more of a different kind of flower, don't cha' know.

Did I miss something or did Brian Wilson get bumped on Saturdays

He's not there this Saturday, that's for sure. And you'll notice there's no "Beltway Boys" either. (Their webpage says they're "pre-empted" this week.) On the plus side, there's an extra half hour of Julie! on Saturday!

A Brian Wilson sighting on Special Report, talking about Twitter:
Asked by the congressman to sum up his existence in 140 words or less...
"I am, because I laugh.
I laugh, because of Congress."

I saw that. However, it's kind of strange that BW's twitter account has been scrubbed of all his tweets except the last three.

He's been tweeting for a while. Why were all the old tweets erased?

The congressman who was in Wilson's report has been on RedEye and is a gas.

Johnny,
Perhaps the Op-Ed conspiracy piece about Maddow and Olbermann being muzzled by MSNBC is correct, at least when it comes to Olbermann.
Since when HAS that guy failed to mention any half-baked conspiracy theory based upon no evidence whatsoever.
