Lawrence O'Donnell is one of the most knowledgeable persons on television

[malaise]

This down memory lane with Ford, Kissinger and the withdrawal from Vietnam is a wonderful lesson on ReTHUG hypocrisy.

Thanks Lawrence - nail the scumbags - political and media.
This is excellent

1. Yes. We may be losing Rachel soon from her nightly show, but I'm hoping we keep Lawrence...

I like Brian Williams too. Not sure I can think immediately of a female anchor that might be the best fit for the nightly line-up. I'd definitely like to see that--but the only one that comes to immediate mind is Nicole Wallace and I can't see her wanting to work nights. That said, Ali Velshi has certainly earned his stripes.

7. Rachel renewed her contract. Three years, I think.

10. Rachel is still with MSNBC but her 9:00 show will go to someone else

Rachel will have a new weekly program, and I think she'll get more time - maybe 2 hours (?). Not sure but it will be announced soon.

It's less pressure on her, and she'll have the opportunity to explore new topics in-depth.

12. Her contract is for special projects with her nightly show ending sometime in 2022.

2. He's my favorite of the news hosts. Calm, rational, knowledgeable.

8. Calm, rational and knowledgeable, yet can also show a...

…very impressive, very chilling controlled fury that I wouldn’t want directed at me.

3. he's sure is

love watching him too and I think Ali Velshi would be great in the right spot

4. I try and watch Rachel, Lawrence, & Brian every night.

Three truth tellers who really dig into facts and come up with bottom lines that are hard to disagree with.

5. A few years ago he was gonna get canned.

Hope they keep him.

6. He has been by far the best on Afghanistan.

The only one who constantly has said the withdrawal had zero chance of not being chaotic and we had to expect loss of life. And he never had guests on to say nonsense.

9. In a very special way...he reminds me of Edward R Morrow...one of the greatest commentators ever..

11. Yes Lawrence is amazing

Like Rachel, he has really a great research staff and show-runners.
I've learned so much from listening to Lawrence, and Rachel too.
