It's simple DU peeps. Watch or DVR 60 minutes and the very

[Ninga]

next day, purchase one of the advertised products. Even if it's something you may not use.

Megan Kelly and the MSNBC idiot who thinks she is a good idea, need to fail.

[Equinox Moon]

1. I'm all for actions like this. I also have some questions.

Why does her program need to fail? What will she be doing on that program? Is it fox so-called news coming to M$M?

[redstatebluegirl]

3. I say both are good reasons.

[Ninga]

4. I base my thoughts on her history. She is a looker for sure, tall, assertative, has

muscles, blond, and just a mean spirited soul.

19. Because Santa Claus is white, and we need to get over it! I know this because Megyn put on

one of her prom dresses and told us so!

Anyone who's that frightened of a black Santa has some problems and shouldn't be trying to shape opinions of people with brains.

23. She made the same claim about Jesus, too! Yet scientists say he probably looked more like this:

[Squinch]

24. What? You mean he wasn't the blue-eyed Justin Timberlake look-alike that

Evangelicals say he was?

Shocked! Shocked, I tell you!

[politicaljunkie41910]

2. I just programmed my DVR and I hope they have some products other than a cars

and major appliances. Otherwise, I'm all in.

[Equinox Moon]

5. They will have some prescription drugs to sell you that might kill you.

[Ninga]

6. Really? Are you making fun of my OP? Do you think it is a bad idea? Just say so.

[Equinox Moon]

8. No. I had not intended to make fun of your op.

I support any and all efforts to resist on any level.

I was making fun of the comment I responded to. Yet, now that I think about it, at that time of night most of the ads are pharm ads with a looooong list of really horrible side effects to include death. I really hate those pharm ads and always reach for the remote to mute them or change the channel.

[Ninga]

18. Thanks. I'm a bit oversentative. All I really want, is to to see folks who are inclined,

support 60 Minutes. Which is not perfect, but far out classes Ms Kelly.

[TexasProgresive]

13. I thought it was funny.

Big pharma keeps churning out and marketing more and more drugs with a list of scaaary side effects.

[Pacifist Patriot]

15. FWIW, I didn't read it as making fun of the OP at all.

[tazkcmo]

7. lol

It's a pretty good bet they will. A pill that has possible side effects much worse than trhe condition it supposedly treats. I really hate these commercials and think they should be removed.

[Equinox Moon]

10. They should be outlawed just like smoking commercials have been.

[Madam45for2923]

9. Is that because it is at the same time as her show?

If so please let me know what they advertise as I don't watch TV unless online.

[Equinox Moon]

11. Prescription drugs.

[Madam45for2923]

12. Other than that?

14. 60 Minutes examines the unfortunate fate that stalks some of Putin's most prominent critics: June 4

60 Minutes examines the unfortunate fate that stalks some of Putin's most prominent critics: unsolved shootings, suspicious suicides and poisonings. Lesley Stahl reports on Sunday, June 4 at 7 p.m. ET/PT.

27. Excellent! n/t

[DK504]

16. If 60 Minutes were the same show as the 70's or 80's, now they are nothing

but a propaganda wing for the right. I will never watch that show or help them in any way. I'd rather watch PBS and donate that money to them.

[Squinch]

20. Look at the post above yours. Seems like it's changed.

[Motley13]

17. She is going to interview Putin & I wouldn't miss that

it's either tonight or tomorrow night, 9PM?.

[former9thward]

21. No, I am not going to buy things I don't need.

The people on 60 minutes would not do that to support me.

[MFM008]

22. Never watch mode

On her and Greta.

[tritsofme]

25. I'll do one better and not watch either...

[underpants]

26. I'll make a prediction - this wasn't a good move for either of the parties

I'm no TV executive (they never make mistakes) but...

For her
We all know she was in a toxic situation, of her own choosing - she had other offers when she decided to go into broadcasting, so she had to get out. NBC is archenemy #1 for Fox viewers so expect almost no carry over audience. Trying to position herself as one of the top echelon of newscasters is a stretch but you have to take that leap I guess. It's a leap.

For NBC
Head to head against 60 Minutes? With basically a summer time launch? That's a big leap.
If you are watching TV and that stopwatch starts clicking you are staying in to see the teasers. 60 Minutes is still the Cadillac of TV news magazines. Different reporters, different stories. 60 pioneered the immediate intro long before Seinfeld did for sitcoms which is now the norm.

I think NBC is under appreciating the carryover from the flagship O'Reilly show. If you'd sit and listen to Hannity, you'd listen to anything.

The camera loves her and she is bright. Getting Putin - who is like a baby pigeon to America, we know he exists but we never actually see him - is a huge scoop. I may watch or watch video simply to observe him. She may have a big first night or two or three and her show will make money but I don't think this is what NBC hopes it will be.

Time will tell. tick tick tick tick
