Countdown MAY be on tonight...and a way to vent.

I called MSNBC just now, and according to their receptionist, it's SUPPOSED to be on, but they don't know for sure. (Typical)

The good news is that you can leave a message on their viewer comment line. The number is [phone]. Just ask for viewer services. I was careful not to bash; just said I missed "Countdown", their Thursday program was the most moving coverage I've seen, and that they have a real asset in Keith Olbermann that they aren't using.

Guess we'll see later today if they come through, eh?

1. Not according to Charter programming...

They have MSRNC tonight showing "MSNBC Presents..MSNBC Presents... MSNBC Presents... Rita Cosby... MSNBC Presents..."

I'm NOT kidding about that. That's what the programming schedule looked like early this morning. I think they WANT the network to fold. How else could you explain it?

2. That's what I have on my cable lineup, too.

But there's some hope. "Headliners and Legends" was supposed to be on, and they pre-empted that.

I'm not getting my hopes up, but I guess we'll know 8:00 EST. In the meantime, call that comment line and email MSRNC.

3. I'm betting not. The "Countdown" clock was running earlier

today, with less than eight hours to go, hence my question as to Muffy's sources. I don't see it now at all.
