ALERT! Countdown WILL be on tonight.
I have received word from a Certain Erstwhile DU'er who has called MSNBC today (yes, they are answering their phone; the area code, however, is 201, so the number is 201-583-5000) that she has received reassurance that Countdown WILL be on tonight.

She said they said "Countdown" will be on. She didn't say specifically that they promised Keith, so the pessimist in me rises. :-( But anyway...DO TUNE IN at 8 ET tonight, or you may miss something.

Much thanks to Certain Erstwhile DU'er. :-)

2. Oh, I hope Keith is on.....
I really need an honest journalism fix ! Between my compassion fatigue and political blame games, I need reassurance too.

But it is a holiday, so am not getting my hopes up :(

3. Well, if the person she talked to turns out to be wrong about the show...
...don't worry, I will publicly post a picture of a person in sackcloth and ashes and say "MEA CULPA! MEA CULPA!" (which of course, we know, covers all sins :-))

4. Not to worry......
the cable newsies schedules have been verklempt all weekend, which I'm assuming includes tonight.

I know the Countdown staff lurks here, so just want to say, if it's Tucker or Rita at 8pm, I'm going to Anderson at CNN, and flipping over to see Geraldo or Shep on Fox.

These people were WONDERFUL all weekend. MSNBC was a miserable failure :(

We'll all get through this :loveya: :grouphug:
