Why the F*** is Brian Williams given such an ENORMOUS presence on MSNBC?

[librechik]

oh, right-- CIA --Mockingbird. "Trusted" sources.

lost hope forever

[Orrex]

1. Hey, give him a break--the man survived a near-fatal helicopter crash!

[NightWatcher]

3. I thought he survived the Titanic disaster

[Democrats Ascendant]

4. Lol!

[malaise]

25. Spitting coffee

[Democrats Ascendant]

2. New show. They are still promoting it.

Not expecting it will last, but I guess it's better than Lemon, which I have long found to be aggravating at best.

[MADem]

5. MSNBC is the farm league--it may be important to those of us who follow politics closely,

but most people don't watch that shit. They'd rather watch Duck Dynasty or Tiny House Nation.

He was the anchor for a major OTA NETWORK. Now he's on a cable news channel owned by that network, with fewer eyes on his show than the shopping channel.

[bravenak]

12. I love Tiny House Nation.

I always find myself wanting one and then remembering how much crap I have

[MADem]

19. LOL- I live in a rambling old manse filled with "treasures"

that go back four generations! I'm a member of the "Don't have to buy their own furniture" set!!!

I'd need a half dozen storage lockers--after the purge--before I could move into a tiny house!

Besides, there's too many family up in here--and they wouldn't fit in one of those things!

It would be fun to find a quirky and cheap sliver of land by a nice lake, or something, and toss one of those things up -- do the "worst house in the best neighborhood" type thing, and use it as a vacation retreat. Then send the family up, two by two (or three, if the weather is really, really good--hee hee).

[bravenak]

22. Oh yeah, that would be fun.

I saw on Texas flip and move one time where they built a tiny house on a trailer, you could tow that thing anywhere. Lights worked and everything, I totally want one, told my husband to get on it, learn how to build that.

[Warren DeMontague]

6. Because this:

[librechik]

7. <3

[MADem]

21. That. Was. HILARIOUS!!!!!!!! nt

[C_U_L8R]

8. WTF Christie on Trumps taxes

I see nothing.

[napi21]

17. It's dumb to even have Christie on. He's obviously a damn lapdog!

I almost chocked when Christie said the reason The Con won't release his older tax returns is because things tend to remain the same year after, so people would be able to make deductions about the one's currently under audit. WELL, YEAH! That's why we've been asking for the older returns. The fact that he admitted the reason on National TV is astounding!

[spiderpig]

9. Apart from his being a self-aggrandizing liar, I can't stand his droning voice

At least they're confining him to a half hour. For now.

[librechik]

10. the despair. it burns.

[Satch59]

11. He's going to an hour tonight...

Wind bag Christie still on...

[redstateblues]

13. A show at midnight? Hardly an enormous presence

[Greywing]

15. At 9PM in Denver ... still considered prime time here

[Akamai]

14. Well, don't you remember that at the Democratic convention he said that the anti-war chant was

"unfortunate"?

In other words, not proven to be worth a bucket of warm spit.

To pooh-pooh antiwar protestors at that time, in such a superior manner, was very, very galling.

[uppityperson]

16. It's really sad. He did great coverage during Katrina, but now seems to mistake fiction for

reality. Conflation helps no one.

[DURHAM D]

18. MSNBC is helping America get more sleep.

[Lil Missy]

20. Because some people like him. n/t

[hibbing]

23. smarmy

Can't stand him with all his little inside jokes and quips that make him feel like he's so funny, while Rachel google eyes him...gag.

Peace

[emulatorloo]

24. He's in exile basically from NBC. And he's easily ignored

He's been demoted to MSNBC. Yes he annoys me, but I can't get too upset about it. CIA? Lol, don't flatter him.

[underpants]

26. Are you kidding? He's great. Look at that haircut.

It SCREAMS Anchorman. That part is perfect.

[librechik]

27. well, exactly. But shameless casting, NBC. SHAMELESS!
