MSNBC is going to lose a lot of viewers since Olberman and Matthews will not be anchoring their coverage. Who in the world would want to watch D. Gregory all night?

1. I agree with you!
They made an absolutely idiotic move by taking Olbermann and Mathews off the anchor desks.

Now, Tweety is not my fave person, but for me, he and Olbermann ARE election/debate night on MSNBC.

I hope this comes back to bite 'em in the ass big time.

2. I don't think anyone wants to watch that
Let's be frank about it- the guy is an idiot.

Show me one person who's watched him and concluded otherwise.

3. I won't be watching his hack ass.
He is such a tool. He can't even hide his biases well. At least we KNOW for sure where KO and Tweety stands. Gregory tries to act like a straight reporter when he is clearly not.

5. As much as I can't stand Douche Gregory
At least there will be 2 1/2 people with brains on MSNBC (Assuming Keith & Rachel are present, and "good Tweety" shows up that night and not "bad Tweety")

Far from perfect, but better than nobody reliable at CNN, and pure sewage on FAUX. Or you could just get shit faced and laugh at what will (hopefully) be a bunch of Corporate Pukes in pain as the map lights up blue across the country.

11. Pretty much my take--if I'm gonna watch commercial TeeVee, it'll be MSNBC.
Otherwise, it's CSPAN or PBS.

6. This just in - ice storm moving toward nether regions. Our on the spot weatherman, Richard Nixon is
reporting that it is suddenly much cooler and a huge low front is blowing in powered by David Gregory's hot air!!!

Hahahahahaha!

Love ya, my3boyz, I won't watch that monkey-faced asshole either.

7. I'll watch C-SPAN or not at all if they don't cover it
Gregory is a proven hack - I'm not going to give him a ratings point.

9. If so, be sure to turn it on right after the debate.
There will be a special Countdown then.

(It's too bad so many people will end up tuning out KO just to spite Gregory. I wish there was a way I could hear ONLY what KO has to say on election night.)

12. I will not watch MSNBC when either Gregory or Brokaw is on.
I think their ratings will show that the people who normally watched MSNBC for election coverage will NOT be tuning in to see those 2 tools.

13. Spinless, Lying Worm
Gregory's on-air persona is that of a "man" who will say or do anything -- no matter how insanely inaccurate he knows it to be -- to advance his career via fabricated conflict. We've all seen him do it over, and over and over again. What a despicable piece of shit. Oh, and BTW, our MSNBC household surfs elsewhere whenever Gregory shows his weasely face.
