Ummm...on NBC, wasn't that supposed to be a Palin interview with Brian W???

[kid a]

And WTF is up with this 10 minute free McCasshole commercial on Rachel.

Brian W. def got to call the shots tonight.

I hope Obama get 10 minutes tomorrow night.

The press is tilting their time to the fucking losing, pathetic, slime factory.

1. I know

I just turned off Rachel in disgust. Her show has really been annoying me lately.

[AnAnonymousDemocrat]

4. Why does it annoy you?

I stopped watching her about 2 weeks ago.

[kid a]

7. Rachel rocks - Brian just got to dictate the time tonight.

edited to remove offensive attack.

Whew - be glad for Nov 5

[AnAnonymousDemocrat]

8. Why are you suspect? (n/t)

[kid a]

18. Welcome to DU! sorry about the jumping to conclusions - I like Rachel and her show

You do not...Fair enough.

Nothing more. But you should at least give her a chance after the election to see how her show pans out after a time. No matter the outcome of the election

Welcome to DU!!

10. Which may explain why, Keith's own figures...

the number of people watching is down about 200K since she came on. It use to be over a mil. Now it's 800/900K.

[Left Is Write]

5. I turned off Rachel because I had just seen the clip on Keith.

Was not interested in seeing the same clip again.

[ComtesseDeSpair]

11. Why does Rachel annoy me?

Well, there's the fact that the production of her show is so unprofessional. A few days ago the camera was zooming in, then out, then in, then out. Then there is all the background talk - it sounds like she's taping in a cafeteria sometimes. That annoys me. Then the other night she was going on about Obama "suspending his campaign" - making it sound like he was pulling a stunt like McCain - when really she should have said that he was cancelling a few events to go visit his ailing grandmother. And then tonight she let Brian Williams run an infomercial for McCain. And she also has that MORON Pat Buchanan on all the time. I can't take anymore of that tool. So, that's why she's annoying me lately. I still love her, don't get me wrong, but the last few days I've much preferred Keith.

[AnAnonymousDemocrat]

14. I'm with you, I'm with you...

I only asked because I posted similar sentiments about a week ago, and was seriously attacked for it. It's good to find out that I'm not alone.

[torbird]

17. Totally agree on all points

...especially the noise in the background. Production values? Zero.

[kid a]

19. Welcome to DU!

[Uzybone]

2. Brian Williams really disappointed me

I know he is a media whore but I expected him to at least be professional and do his damn job.

[kid a]

3. I think this "tenseness" thing is just BS. McCain sat there and spewed and the media

is just playing and playing and playing it.

All I saw was a 10 minute commercial.

[Cha]

22. David Letterman does a better job than

Brian Williams and I saw that Letterman show when Williams was on and saying he wanted to interview palin but they wouldn't do nbc 'cause of KO or something..

At the time I thought.."yeah, if you interview her it will be junk."

Too bad he's so predictable.

[kid a]

23. Thanks for bringing up Williams/Letterman piece - I puts his absolute non presence into perspective

Williams threw softballs then sat silent as a good audience does.

[Cha]

24. Yeah, Williams is a little Brokaw wannabe in

every sense..too bad they don't have any.

[paparush]

6. Horserace helps the ratings. More viewers. More eyballs. More ads.

[1corona4u]

9. I think I am going to stop watching her.

It's like watching the same shit from Keith. Pretty tired of it. And, tonight, I don't know why she had to have the fucking interview again. It's like she's a glutton for punishment or something. Really starting to piss me off. She knows that story has been out there, and she knows it has had PLENTY of airtime. And she said NOTHING to make the situation/story any more acceptable. Sometimes I wonder who's fucking side she is on. Not to mention that she has that sack of shit Pat on all the time.

I really resent her for some of the shit she does.

Fuck it. I just decided, she is not for me, and I will not watch her anymore. I don't waste my time on people who piss me off, or make my blood pressure rise.

[AnAnonymousDemocrat]

12. lol - wow - a strong reaction!

Actually, I have similar feelings, although I'm maybe not as dramatic as you are. I just felt like, from the beginning, her show was a watered-down version of Countdown, or a repeat of Countdown - with Rachel as the host.

[1corona4u]

15. Well, you shouldn't have been attacked for your opinion,

but then again, this is DU, where people like to attack people because they don't agree with the 'sainthood' of people they like.

I can't wait until this election is over.

[AnAnonymousDemocrat]

16. I agree. (With both of your statements.) n/t

[life_long_dem]

20. If Rachel's show was on before KO, would you think his

show was a watered down version of hers? Maybe both of their shows are watered down versions of Hardball.

I still watch all three shows, but I think KO's is the best.

[kid a]

21. I think Rachel is still figuring this medium out - under the confines of NBC news

[AnAnonymousDemocrat]

28. I don't know, but I doubt that I would

Olbermann's style and content seems sharper to me. I'm sure Rachel's show will become better. I'm just expressing my honest opinions.

[AlCzervik]

13. i'm going to watch the next segment tomorrow night, i thought she sounded like

a total good, her speaking style is ridiculous and he looked like a damn fool counting off the like of Kissinger, Haig and Schultz.

[Disturbed]

25. When Pukecannon comes on I switch stations.

I cannot stand his voice & his stupid opinions. I wish she would cancel him.

Same thing when he or his stupid sister are on TV anywhere.

[AlCzervik]

26. i meant the next segment tomorrow night of the interview on nbc news.

there is no way there is not some major gaffe or ass clinching moment on it's way and i'm not missing it.

I watch Rachael a few times a week but i'm not a dedicated fan, i like her but there is a lot of overlapping stories that sometimes don't offer up any new details.

[gauguin57]

27. AARP magazine implied Williams leans toward McCain cuz he's very pro-military.

Brian's all about military families and veterans ... and he likes McCain because of how friendly and accessible he's always been. So sez AARP.

(Brian will soon turn 50 -- that's why he's the cover boy this month).
