just saw msnbc's rate card. they're figuring that friday night's donahue show will draw the biggest ratings it ever has, as people tune in to see his humiliation. as a result, the network will be charging double for commercial time, with a 60-second spot during the hour costing nearly $13.

LOL! For a minute I thought you were serious. Now I'm ROFL at $13 for a 60-second spot!

MSNBC must have done the Donahue cancellation because they just spent a bundle on revamping their image slogan (for the second time in about 6 months) plus they're anticipating a need to spend big bucks on WAR COVERAGE and probably some hefty "compensation package" payment for Dona-who.
