(22,541 posts)Programming that stands in stark contrast to the other stuff on network TV like 60 Minutes which has gotten kind of tired and doesn't dig deep anymore. More of an MSM mouthpiece than the hard-hitting show it used to be.
Ed is blue collar, love him or not. That's what he stands for. He's not always right bit he does say what he thinks, as opposed to the others who say whatever the network wants. I think it's a good move. He will have the opportunity to distinguish himself. He will have the opportunity to speak for ordinary people to a new audience, people who've been too busy during the week to sit down and watch before. Now they can.
And Ed can have a bit more time to spend with Wendy and Wendy can have more time with Ed. She loved helping him research before. She was instrumental to his becoming a Democrat and radio talk show host. They're a team. I'm glad they'll be a team again.
So, think positively. Talk the show up. I'm excited about it. I think it'll be fresh programming.
