Poll question: Tweety's new segment: Hardball Hotshots or Fascist Fridays?
Edited on Fri Jan-27-06 07:09 PM by blm
Please check whichever title more appropriately fits Chris Matthews' new Friday edition of Hardball. We can pass it on as a suggestion for the programmers at MSNBC.

1. It is mind boggling isn't it? I sure hope he starts losing some
advertisers.

Everyone should be well-practiced at calling, e-mailing and faxing people by next week.

Hopefully, then we can turn those skills toward the Hardball advertisers.

2. after this Alito bizness, we must turn our energy to the media.
Nothing changes till we get democracy back in our newsrooms.

3. Sorry to ask a stupid, completely uninformed question
but what are "Hardball Hotshots"?

Fascist Fridays sound like they could fit almost any day of Hardball, at least the way I recall the show. They should change the name to MalkinBall because she is the last right winger with whom Tweety played Hardball, to my recollection.

6. Isn't Olbermann an anchor? How about Dan Abrams?
I wonder why Olbermann and Abrams were snubbed by the Tweety Turd, unless it's limited to a roundtable of fascist MSNBC anchors, in which case "Fascist Fridays" is the only appropriate name.

The Fab Fascists were pre-empted for prison documentaries.

17. How about Ms. Rachel Maddow for the roundtable?
She's regularly on The Situation.

On second thought, that wouldn't be fair. Ms. Maddow would crush them all.

Seriously, if MSNBC had a working brain cell, Ms. Maddow would be much more prominent.

Okay, TWO working brain cells. They still have Mr. Olbermann on.

10. I started a thread about the HotShots
Lori Klausutis, a 28-year old worker in one of the HotShots offices was found dead on July 20, 2001. Could LardBall or Rita do an in-depth investigation into this mysterious death in the office of then Rep. HotShot Joe Scarborough? We've heard plenty of investigative reporting about missing young blond women. This young woman, Lori, isn't missing ... she was found dead in Scarborough's office.

15. Maybe Nancy Grace needs to be emailed about Dead Intern Joe
She's with the competition, after all (yeah, I know they all have their lips firmly planted on BushCo's ass). Maybe she could do some good for a change.
