I'm listening to Malloy rebroadcast now and he's talking about comcast being in business with FOX and attempting to buy a majority of stock in NBC. If that happens, how long to you think Matthews, Olberman, Ed, or Rachel will last? I know that all of these corps. are only interested in profit but if comcast/FOX become majority owners of the stock instead of GE, do you think this is possible?
I know Malloy can be a bit over the top sometimes but dear God!!!! If that happens I hope I really don't live longer than my dad who died of a heart attack at age 67. I'm 66.

2. OH MAN, I hope you're right. I'm retired and probably pay much too much |

attention to politics but I get so discouraged with what sems like almost ALL the cable chanels & even the main ones are either leaning WAY to the right or at the very least oartly. I made the mistake of switching to CNN tonight during a comercial on MSNBC and found John King ripping on how lame the rally in DC this past Sat. was and how many more people were at the Beck one. I thought CNN was at least a bit equal in their broadcasting, but NOOOOOO not tonight! I listened to a bit of Parker/Spitzer and and Elliot did a great job interviewing Elizabeth Warren, but there are so few shows like that it's very discouraging.

3. Its always the money. If MSNBC/KO/Rachel/Ed, at al, get good ratings (= advertising |
|
dollars) then they're good as gold.
