Martin Bashir starts now on MSNBC

[grasswire]

I love that man. I really do.

[Flashmann]

1. I don't even consider

MSNBC to be officially "On Air" til Martin Bashir begins.....Totally unwatchable before he's on..

[flamingdem]

2. Martin Bashir saves the day telling it like it is! Romney is incompetent!

3. He should replace Morning Joe for three hours

[fleur-de-lisa]

5. Yes . . . Joe Scab is unbearable so early in the morning . . .

unless he's doing a double facepalm while lamenting some rMoney blunder (Oh, Sweet Jesus)! I could watch that all day!

[flamingdem]

7. nooo too early, how about Tweety's second slot

now that they replay Tweety late at night

[Mike Daniels]

8. Why do they repeat Hardball at this point?

I understood when they had no other hosts beyond Matthews, Olbermann and Maddow that they had to duplicate the evening programming.

Given that no other shows repeat now until 11 p.m. why is Hardball's 7 p.m. slot sacred? Surely, they have someone in wings that can pull off a one hour show between Al and Ed.

10. That's a good choice....maybe they can shuffle some people around

to give Martin Bashir more than one hour .

4. I started DVR-ing Bashir this week. He is good. nt

6. Julian Epstein rocks!

Smart and honest, Capehart good too. Whew some sanity still remains on msnbc but it looks like they are risking only 20% of their programming due to the buck$ coming in now.

9. Epstein was excellent today.

Absolutely tough and on the money.
