it replays later doesn't it? I loved the Murrow idea that dissent does not mean we're not loyal!

12. What did he say? I'd like to know before he is "Donahued" or "Malloyed" |
|
What was the rant about? Inquiring minds want to know.

14. It was about Rumsfeld's speech yesterday |
|
implying that people who question the White House are guilty of appeasing fascists.
You must see it when it reruns at midnight ET or when C&L puts it up. I don't doubt they will.

think that he has finally gotten sick and tired of holding his tongue.

Since Keith attracts advertisers and Mike obviously didn't.
All media, even progressive media, is about money. Without it, you can't broadcast. The vast majority of TV and radio is paid for by advertisers. Without them, you are just talking to yourself.
Listen, AAR didn't know how to sell Mike and his show. Blame it on the bad sales staff. Mike is a professional and will land on his feet.

26. I think Keith had his "Have you no decency" moment tonight |
|
Edited on Wed Aug-30-06 10:28 PM by TheWatcher
Don't worry about Keith. The way he spoke tonight, with such power, with such conviction, I think perhaps he cares more about his principles, his beliefs, and his country than a show on a failing, barely breathing, and mostly irrelevant Cable Network.
Now is not the time for compromise.
We live in a World run by MADMEN, and maybe it's time to stand up to them, get in their face, and say "No, FUCK YOU".
If tonight was Keith's last hurrah, so be it.
Fuck these assholes. The world they want is not a world worth living in.
I'd rather fight.
And I'd rather see other people fight as well.
