(7,522 posts)He was my favorite too and I had to watch his show more than any other. But he bailed for no good reason, as he has at about every job he has had. We didn't need him to quit when he did; he needed to stay and fight. I'm not going to place trust in him again.

(15,412 posts)My strongest memory of Jon is him telling Fox to "go fuck yourself". Here at 3 minutes 7 seconds. Worth a watch.
And my all time favorite 2 minutes of TV and comedy ever

I miss his wit and wisdom.

(683 posts)I follow him on Twitter. He's an advocate for animals, too. Good guy.

(7,220 posts)Always seemed a bit too sanctimonious for my tastes. I watched him, but winced a lot.

(10,271 posts)He said basicly, that NOW we know that Trump will be impeached/removed/indicted, and while it might be fun to keep doing this between now and then, it's also useless...cause NOW we know what's gonna happen.
The man called it a year ago.

(1,990 posts)At first, she was doing stories for his show. She got moved to her own show (I think KO had something to do with that), and the rest is history.
Rhiannon12866
(205,405 posts)I was already familiar with her from her Air America radio show. She started off very nervous and those of us on DU were watching in real time and rooting her on. By the end of the show, she had found her voice and the rest really is history. She's the one making headlines now, but she started with the support of KO. He was always must-see-TV.

(521 posts)On TV, at least, Rachel Maddow seemed very compatible with Keith. As the prime attraction on MSNBC, she can persuade the network producers to bring him back to the stable.
Please, please, please.

(47,482 posts)After all, he had a whole hour. As opposed to Matthews and, on occasions, others, who ask a question and immediately interrupt them.
