1. Good for him - this is a big deal and I'm glad the national media

is paying attention.

[montanacowboy]

2. Good!

glad he is there to report

[Little Star]

3. Thanks for the heads up! k&r

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

4. He just wants to be on TV.

Per Scarborough.

[PFunk]

7. Others yes, but not Chris.

His reports on this have been spot on so far. I think he wants to highlight this further and be closer to the story. And with the war against reporters there this is the proper call.

9. It was sarcasm. From what Scarborough said this morning.

5. I think his reporting on this has been great.

For many, it was a defining moment when he expressed the surreal image of a policeman dressed in a combat type uniform on a military vehicle pointing a machine gun aimed at peaceful demonstrators (that is not an actual quote but its close).

6. I love him and he is one of the few I can stomach on M$NBC,

[JaydenD]

8. He's a very sharp guy, Lawrence O'Donnel isn't too shabby either.

Most of the rest bore me to tears with their repetitions.

[Blue_In_AK]

10. I'm with you on that.

I like Rachel, too, but her style of repeating her point in several different ways, all in a row, kind of grates on me sometimes. I would guess that most of her viewers don't need that much explaining.

11. Chris on the difference tonight

Very minimal police presence, feeling of exuberance and peacefulness among the crowd. What a difference a day makes.
About to broadcast from the heart of the protests
Several hundred marchers just went by chanting "Hands up! Don't shoot!" With a single cruiser trailing them.
