Reply #4: Ed's Show Is Doomed At The New Time Slot...... [View All]

In the CST he comes on at 5pm. People are just getting home from work and turn on the TV and Ed - being he is the big advocate for the working class - refreshing to watch after putting in a hard day at work kissing corporate ass. They identify with his rants and it certainly goes well with a cocktail or beer.

By moving Ed to the later time slot - he will be up against more prime time programming and by that time the corporate ass kickers are settled in and watching CSI, Law & Order, The Good Wife, etc and just want to veg out.

I think MSNBC/Comcast is putting Ed in this time slot to facilitate his demise. His ratings will go down at this new time and they'll have a good excuse to deep six his program.

It will be interesting to see what happens to Rachel. How will they try and control her program?
