be taken over, and implied his show could get the boot. I can't recall which other telecom it was, Time Warner, AT&T, dunno.

He goes back and forth, then seems to settle down and I've already stressed over his changes enough.

If he keeps up the RWers too much, it's adios.

Hubs and I were furious but always seem to give him another chance. TV is for shit anyway. Sometimes "new rules" are worth it, sometimes not. It's nice to be able to laugh at the assholes.

Tonight's guests:
Jeff Bridges, David jolly, Soledad O'Brien, Doris Kearns Goodwin, and Andrew Sullivan.
