The ratings would be off the charts, Al is brilliant; would know how to put on a great TV show, and his progressive voice would reach many more Americans!
His first guests could be Trump and or Moore accusers. Wouldn't that be a huge fuck you the right wing media hate machine!

from Morning Joe were involved in sexual harassment cases and fired.
I miss Keith Olbermann and The Resistance. Maybe Franken would do something like that.

They want to get rid of net neutrality and Al Franken led the march last time to stop them.

He doesn't need the hassle of a big time TV show.
