MSNBC: CROSSING THE RIVER
Posted: Friday, October 19, 2007


(Yeah, it's the wrong river, we may not bring any muskets when we move, and George Washington was going to N.J., but it still kinda works.)

In the immortal words of staff favorite Bruce Springsteen, it was bye bye New Jersey... we were airborne. Countdown and the Newshole prepare to leave the Garden State for good after Friday's show. We're movin' up to the east side (by east side we mean mid-town Manhattan....either way the beans don't burn on the grill). With our new digs, (building, set, studio, offices) we're going to have a new graphic look for the show. Same Keith, same Countdown...new coat of paint....(W)e hope you tune in Monday to check it out.

5. Which part? nt

4. Not bad...

Go Keith!

However, I would like the show to perhaps spend less time on tabloid stuff. I do find the coverage amusing, but I'd like maybe, oh... 20% more hard news coverage.

6. why would anyone want to leave Secaucus?

They have some great outlet shopping! I'm going there tomorrow, in fact. tee hee
