I like Dan, but I am really glad to see Rachael get her own show. She will debut after the conventions in the 9pm slot on MSNBC. UPDATE: Keith Olbermann has also posted a diary about Rachael’s new show over at DKos.

Just now breaking on MSNBC. More as the details come out. UPDATE 1: The DOJ will be holding a news conference at 1:20pm est today to discuss the charges returned by the grand jury. UPDATE 2 (and bumped) A PDF of the indictment is available here. The news conference is just now starting (1/2 hour […]

Scarborough continued his attack on bloggers this morning, saying we are a bunch of Cheetos eating, Harry Potter watching basement dwellers. Ignore the fact that I don’t even like Harry Potter, let’s look at something more interesting – the ratings. Here’s the breakdown of morning shows courtesy of TVNewser: Show (6-9amET) Network A25-54 Total Viewers […]

This would so rock: “At some point, I don’t know when, she should have a show,” said Phil Griffin, hours before he was promoted on Wednesday to president of MSNBC. “She’s on the short list. It’s a very short list. She’s at the top.” She is Rachael Maddow. Rachael would be awesome on her own […]

Three different times I turned on MSNBC and those three times the story they were covering was Hillary Clinton’s new haircut. “Her hair is shorter and her part is on the right”. This is news? I’m not the only one who has noticed it either.

I am going to try and keep up with delegate counts here. There’s a lot of movement today, so it might be tough. Interesting is that FOX already has Obama as the presumptive nominee.   CNN MSNBC FOX CBS ABC AVERAGE Clinton 1912 1918 1912 1910 1906 1911.6 Obama 2112 2107 2123 2109 2107 2111.6 […]

That’s how many more delegates Obama needs to cross the magic line. MSNBC has it at 41.5. Obama picked up two new super delegates today, which should be a sign of the week to come. I am going to work up a new tracker for the remaining delegates sometime today.

Andrea Mitchell continues to push it: On MSNBC Live, Andrea Mitchell failed to challenge Republican strategist Trent Duffy’s false claim that Sen. John McCain “was one of the first to call for Secretary Rumsfeld’s resignation.” In fact, as his campaign itself has reportedly admitted, McCain did not call for former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld’s resignation. […]

While working and listening to MSNBC this afternoon, I would have sworn Ted Kennedy had died. They were damn near eulogizing him on air. Positive thoughts anyone? On while on that subject – My thoughts and prayers are with Ted and his family. I won’t go into a dramatic MSNBC style wake, since I have […]

As much as I wish he was, he is not. The media seems to not understand that though. They keep going on about “if Obama looses Kentucky”. So? There is still a race going on. Neither candidate has reached the magic number to become presumptive nominee yet. Yes Obama will be the nominee. Yes Hillary […]
