David Gregory To Moderate "Meet The Press"



David Gregory will take the reins as moderator of NBC's "Meet the Press," the Huffington Post has learned. Gregory has been a leading contender for the permanent spot since Tom Brokaw stepped in as interim moderator following Tim Russert's death in June.

In recent weeks, a short list including Gregory, Andrea Michell, Gwen Ifill, and Chuck Todd had been considered the top candidates for the position, while Katie Couric and Ted Koppel were viewed as dark horses.

Brokaw will conclude his duties as interim moderator this weekend, when he will interview President-Elect Barack Obama.

NBC News did not immediately reply to a request for comment.

1. I never watch it anyway.

They should have had Ron Reagan though.

[blm]

2. Jack Welch ALWAYS gets final say in who gets Meet the Press chair. He's the BFEE media fixer.

3. We saw that one coming a mile away, didn't we?

Now who's gonna get HIS show? Think he'll do both? Maybe that's why Joe S was sent to DC:)

Having HIM in DC and the rest in NYC, is not working all that well for Morning Joe..

Did Joe-dead-aide's family move to DC to be with him, or are they still in Pensacola??anyone know??

4. Please raise your hands if you don't give a rat's ass . . .

*who* moderates this show . . .

[Jazzgirl]

14. I damn sure don't give a damn who moderates it!

I used to watch it for years but got so tired of Timeh's obvious puke suckling that I quit looking. I used to halfway like David G. a few years ago but he became such a cynical asshole that I quite watching him. This just means I REALLY won't be watching MTP! :mad:

[Faygo Kid]

5. Maybe he and Karl can be a pair on "Dancing With the Stars"

A pair of what, you can provide your own answer.

6. What a joke.

Tom Brokaw was bad enough - I'll never get through an hour of David Gregory. Oh well, buh bye, MTP.

7. All in favor of

going to the vomitorium raise your hands!!!

The line forms in the rear and remember!!!!

No Shoving this time
everyone gets a number and their own bowel.

[gogoplata]

9. bowel or bowl?

[lamp_shade]

8. I don't like him. I won't watch.

[malaise]

10. Good fugging grief

Why?

[Berry Cool]

11. It's a real shame.

It used to be fun watching him go toe to toe with Snotty Scotty when he was press secretary. Back in those days, he actually questioned what * was up to and kept pressing. He and Helen Thomas could always be counted on not to let them get away with stuff.

Then, at some point, he decided his bread was better buttered on the other side. Don't know why, but he got co-opted. He hasn't been the same since he became a Solid Gold dancer for MC Rove.

12. Don't watch "Meet the Repugs" n/t

[underpants]

13. Saw this coming from a loong way away. The White House reporter almost always gets that job

Gregory is a joke
