Fox's Van Susteren recommends Rachel Maddow replace Brian Williams

Fox News anchor Greta Van Susteren thinks MSNBC's liberal host Rachel Maddow would be a fine fit to replace Brian Williams as anchor of NBC's "Nightly News."

"How about a woman?" wrote Van Susteren on her Gretawire blog Wednesday. "My suggestion: Rachel Maddow. Whether you agree with her or not, she will stir things up and provoke a debate. She is also the right price — she is already on the payroll!"

Van Susteren's suggestion comes in light of news that Brian Williams has been suspended for six months as anchor and managing editor of NBC's "Nightly News."

Van Susteren wrote that NBC News should experiment with its newscast format, perhaps mirroring cable news where commentary and debate take precedence.

A brilliant idea.

Talk about a diverse candidate.

A woman(?), a person admired for her sexual deviance, a shill for all things liberal and a woman(?)as dumb as a bag of hammers.

A perfect candidate!

Gee I have an idea. How about just report the damn news and keep your opinions out of it.

Greta wants NBC’s ratings to tank. This is not unlike the press trying to pick the nominee for the Republicans.

I’m still wondering how the terminally uninteresting, unenlightening Greta got her gig.

Definitely put her up there. Her particular brand of low-rated smarmy lunacy is wasted on cable.

Replacing Williams with Maddow would put the NBC Evening News ratings in the toilet and send sponsors running.
