NBC channel 6 out of Miami must be run by the teaparty...grrr

For ages I wake up on Sunday mornings and turn on MTP at nine a.m. on the RARE chance that DG will have some intelligent speakers popping in. Usually I just mute it and have my breakfast. But I really look forward to the half hour Chris Mathews show following. Interesting guests and format.

Soooo... today I turn it on and everything is permanently changed. Local news now at 9 am. Yippee... makes my Sunday morning to hear about the Saturday night crime sprees in Miami. MTP at 10 (well at least I will be able go to a ABC or CBC and view their shows. Which is better?)

But as I scan around looking for the Chris Mathews Show... nothing. So I search harder, and guess what?? It will now be aired at SEVEN A.M. On Sunday morning. Seven a.m. In other words, the producers have decided that no one should be watching it.

I did email the CMS and let them know that they will be missed. And that David Gregory is a partisan jerk.

Morans.

He's not so much a broken watch as a broken calendar.
