The word is that Tom Brokaw will fill in through the November elections.. but what’s really disturbing is who have been floated as permanent replacements for Tim Russert.

“I’d hate to see ‘Meet The Press’ become another mouthpiece for the Democratic Party.”
That’s exactly what it will become. There are no objective journalists left at NBC. They’ll have to look outside their four walls to preserve the standard Russert set.
Still hard to believe he’s gone. RIP Tim.

In case you missed the article which matt linked to (actually a blog posting which linked to an article which referred to some other artoicle)… the list of “disturbing” possible hosts was David Gregory, Andrea Mitchell, and Chris Matthews… all of him are supposedly Democratic mouthpieces.
Meet the Press was pretty successful with Russert as the host…. his successor will likely be in the same vein as Russert. Don’t look for Glen Beck or Michael Savage to take over Russert’s chair.

Don’t look for Glen Beck or Michael Savage to take over Russert’s chair.
I know you’re being sarcastic, but here goes:
Savage has already been fired or had resigned from MS-NBC for some allegedly inappropriate comments he made to a gay guy. Funny thing is, I had never seen his show until I saw him say that. I didn’t see anything wrong with what Savage said, but then again, I’m one of those so-called “racist, bigoted, xenophobic homophobes.”
Brokjaw would be better than all three of those lunatics; however, if I had to choose, Mrs. Greenspan would be my pick…
