Choosing the producer before deciding what the show is going to be is the kiss of death. Another impending disaster for MSNBC!

Not necessarily. It could mean that the producer will have more authority than the host, and that's not necessarily a bad thing. These star-driven talking head shows give me hives.

I did get a chuckle out of the statement that Buchanan and Press will still be "contributing" to MSNBC. I suppose there must be some toilets in need of scrubbing somewhere. The two of them would be perfect for it.

They should just put up a test pattern for an hour. It'll probably recieve their highest ratings.

They should sign up a few retired Senators for a news talk hour. Fred Thompson, Phil Grahm, Zell Miller, etc. Just gab away on one topic a day.

Start with the Bill of Rights, one item per night (or week).

Genuinely put forth the idea of educating the American people about their government.

I know sincere education would be a desperate move (< /sarcasm>), but with PSMBC's ratings and holes in their program schedule, they might want to try something really radical (for just one hour a day).

Could it be the "Coulter & Ingraham" show I've been praying for?

The AmishDude show. The time is ripe.

Of course, I'd get better audience numbers on public access.
