Let MSNBC know you want them to keep Stephie!
I just received this e-mail:

LET MSNBC KNOW WHAT A GREAT IMPROVEMENT STEPHANIE MILLER IS ACTION PAGE: http://www.millionphonemarch.com/keep_stephanie.php

In the aftermath of the firing of Don Imus, some expressed the fear that his replacement would possibly be worse. Well . . . why don't we campaign for somebody better? And we have a wonderful opportunity with MSNBC giving Stephanie Miller a try out three days up until Wednesday, May 2, in the old Imus slot. From what we've heard she has been hitting it out of the park with her delightful progressive wit. So let's all fire up our keyboards and tell MSNBC she won the audition. The right wing tries to argue that we're just against things, demanding to know what we're for. Here is a wonderful opportunity to tell NSBNC that we are STRONGLY for classy humor with a progressive political bite, which is perfectly representative of where the majority of America is at in their thinking right now. We can be proactive. We can promote better alternatives. And our voices really can break though in the media, if we just keeping speaking out. Please take action NOW, so we can win all victories that are supposed to be ours, and forward this message to everyone else you know.

If you would like to get alerts like these, you can do so at http://www.millionphonemarch.com/in.htm
Or if you want to cease receiving our messages, just use the function at http://www.millionphonemarch.com/out.htm march46:125930

23. She doesn't want to move to Secaucus.
Couldn't they set up a few cameras in the studio she normally uses?

12. 898,000 actually tune in to the Fox n friends airheads?
What a dumb trio Fox serves up in the morning. The right wing weatherman is a man-child and does not belong on TV. Where's that Edy character?.....I haven't seen her around. Pumpin' out more neocon babies?

16. She must want the job
Because she has a banner on her website that says "MSNBC, Want More?" which links to the Million phone march.

26. She Wants To Stay In LA
I give her and her crew lots of credit in packing up the radio show and taking it across the country. She worked in a strange studio with lots of eyes and ears on every thing she did and came out doing great. From one whose tried to do what she's done, I was very impressed.

Her thing is she wants to stay on the left coast...which would mean doing the show from 2am-6am local time...and then back again for her radio show. That's a lotta work. But then if MSNBC is willing to set up shop for her in LA, I think Stephanie would be a little more interested.

24. I set my VCR and tape it.
It has a timer function, so it can record a show even while I'm asleep. I'm still working my way through Wednesday's show. Love it!

Stephanie Miller has been the best thing on MS-NBC EVER!

At the very least, this will send a message that we approve of her whole-heartedly.

Giant underarm sweatstains and all!

14. K&R!
It was so nice to have her on in the background these last few days. It's gotten so I don't even have the TV on in the AM anymore, except these past three days.

:toast: To "Momma"!

American Morning – 360,000 viewers (149,000)
MSNBC Live- 221,000 viewers (108,000)
Robin & Co. – 217,000 viewers (108,000)



This was Monday's performance
Morning programs P2+ (25-54)
FOX & Friends – 898,000 viewers (383,000)
American Morning – 365,000 viewers (163,000)

17. Go Stephie, your fans are the best word of mouth. I know that people who appreciate
her humor and approach will be happy I steered them her way!

Kind of like, TDS, Colbert, Real Time, and of course, Olbermann.

She was spectacular, BTW. MKJ

18. There are already nearly 5,000 signatures on the petition.
Make sure you send it to your friends.

Even if they don't actually keep Stephanie Miller, I think it's important that MSNBC hear how many of us approve of her.

And let's use this is another stick to hit some idiots over the head with-- those idiots who claim they can't sell Progressive Talk Radio in Progressive markets like Boston.
