Russert lied at the Libby trial and was willing to see Libby go to prison to avoid personal embarrassment.

MSNBC Doesn't even usually have live programming on weekends, just episodes of LOCKUP and other shows like that. Turn it off if you don't want to watch, it's not like they're making you watch.

You don't know what your missing. Sprout channel has a new Thomas and Friends and History Channel a UFO marathon.

I figured I'd be sacrificing something grand on TV, but I will persevere in the yard. Potting soil is dribbling off my fingers onto the keyboard as I type this. Back to manual labor. It's all I'm really good for anyway.

Well to be fair it wasn’t ALL day yesterday because it wasn’t until early afternoon MST (late afternoon EDT) that we even found out he died. And his show is Sunday so it’s logical they’ll do something then.

But other than that, it’s a TV network, you really didn’t expect them to have sane priorities did you?

NBC/MSNBC cynically goes for ratings on the corpse of Tim Russert. - RIP Big Russ and Little Russ

He is. I’m sure this is devastating for him, too.

Give PMSNBC a break. After all, they are covering their own funeral.

I don’t do TV but I tuned in to Hewitt in the last hr. and it was all Russert, he said he was doing all 3 hrs. in tribute to him. Had to tune out.

>>>Has anyone seen or heard anything from Chris Mathews? Just curious

He’s got another tingle in his leg over the thought he may be Russert’s heir to “Meat the Depressed”....though he may have to mud-wrestle Ol’Beerman for it....(wearing spandex...)

Why did you turn to those channels to begin with?

They know Gregory, Wilson, Olbermann, etc. won’t be able to fill those shoes.

Who is Wilson?

Perhaps you meant Williams as in Brian Williams.

On the issue of looks, maybe Chris will carry the tourch for “normal” people.

This weekend? The only time my TV is tuned to any NBC product is an occasional Sunday night when the Patriots are playing.Other than that,they lost me when Belushi and Ackroyd left Saturday Night Live.

I’d rather have ‘em worshipping Russert than worshipping Obama, which is what they will return to doing after the weekend.

NBC = Nattering Barack Channel
MSNBC = Media Slugs Naming Barack Christ

Yes, I meant Williams. Thank you so much for correcting me. I’ve had more coffee now and am clicking on all cylinders.

When Ted Kennedy does pass on you’ll see the same thing...
btw I hear the Daily Kos-sacks are trying to get NBC
to put Keith Olbermann in Russert’s spot and I said to
myself, the same thought had crossed my mind: knowing
the lame stream media that’s just what they’ll do. “We’ll
put in a distinguished, serious, fair, intellectual
host for Meet the Press: Keith Overbite!”

Watch. They just may...
