“Alan Keyes Is Making Sense” to Air Weeknights at 10PM, ET Beginning January 21st
SECAUCUS, NJ- January 7, 2002- Former Presidential Candidate and Reagan-era U.S. Ambassador at the United Nations, Alan Keyes has joined MSNBC as host of a new one-hour commentary show, “Alan Keyes Is Making Sense,” weeknights at 10PM, ET. Erik Sorenson, president and general manager, MSNBC, made the announcement today.
“We're excited that Alan is bringing his highly-regarded grasp of global issues and his larger-than-life personality to MSNBC," said Sorenson. "This network has distinguished itself as the cable news channel for smart young viewers interested in knowing about their world. Alan's deep knowledge, incredible capacity to frame debate, and provocative views will be a great addition to an already-terrific primetime lineup.”
“Alan Keyes Is Making Sense” is a live one-hour talk show providing in-depth analysis and commentary on the issues of the day from politics, economics to the various cultural hot buttons. The program will originate from Washington, D.C.
Keyes received his Ph.D in Government Affairs in 1979 from Harvard University. He served during the Reagan Administration in the U.S. Foreign Service and on the staff of the National Security Council before being appointed Ambassador to the United Nations Economic and Social Council in 1983. He was the Assistant Secretary of State for International Organization Affairs from 1985-87.
Alan Keyes is also a two-time Republican presidential candidate and two-time Republican Senate nominee from the state of Maryland. His greatest public exposure came most recently through his dynamic and much extolled performances in the 2000 Republican Presidential Debates.
For the past 10 years, Keyes has reached a nationwide audience each day through his nationally syndicated radio program, “The Alan Keyes Show: America’s Wake-Up Call.” He is the author of two critically acclaimed books, Masters of the Dream: The Strength and Betrayal of Black America and Our Character, Our Future: Reclaiming America’s Moral Destiny, with a third to be released soon. Keyes and his wife of 19 years, Jocelyn, reside in Maryland with their three children: Francis, Maya and Andrew.
Keyes joins MSNBC’s weeknight line-up, which also includes:
 “The Abrams Report” at 6PM, ET: The latest headlines and investigation on the American strike against terrorism.
 “Hardball with Chris Matthews” at 7PM, ET: A provocative look at the politicians and newsmakers from the business, entertainment and media arenas that have helped shape the country’s political and social landscape.
 Emmy Award-winning “The News with Brian Williams” at 8PM, ET: The only comprehensive live hour-long nightly newscast in primetime. Using the worldwide resources of NBC News, Williams provides viewers with in-depth coverage of the day’s top news stories; interviews with the world’s newsmakers; and a first-hand look at tomorrow’s headlines from around the world.
 “A Region in Conflict with Ashleigh Banfield” at 9PM, ET: Host Ashleigh Banfield takes viewers inside various regions in conflict for a close-up look at the people and their struggle for survival, the politics, and the struggle for power.
“America at War with Lester Holt” at 11PM, ET: The only live news-hour which recaps the days headlines and the most recent developments in the war on terrorism.
If there is an audience left in America for Constitutional values and conservative principles, Dr. Keyes will energize them -- and hopefully convert some naysayers to our cause.
It is about restoring the Constitution, and I can't think of a better spokesman to get that message out than Dr. Keyes.
As always, I wish Rev. Peterson the very, very best success with his efforts! I was there for the repudiation of Rev. Jackson last year!
Hugs.
Tomorrow, my friend!
Nighty night!
No problem.
Oooh ... may take one to know one but you're in serious Bimbo Territory now, baby.
Horowitz is an opportunist, plain and simple, who's playing an integral part in making the GOP feel Clever and Excused (after all, it's OUR turn now) for choosing all the WRONG pages from the Left's playbook.
His almost visceral reaction to Dr. Keyes during his first townhall (back when this forum was not quite so chock full of Enthusiasts) was practically a foreshadowing of what you all have turned into.
Keyes is not a problem because he's self-serving or criticizes Bush or refuses to leave the GOP even if he's going to criticize it as well.
Keyes is a problem for you all for he stands as a buoy all can see in the distance ... marking the ever-widening expanse between the GOP and the objective truth the GOP has been compromising in earnest as it abandons the Constitution, abandons the fight to overturn the Mother-Only Right to Homicide and cheers the President's Clintonesque decision to provide no funding for the "destruction" of embryonic human lives but only those which had "already been killed".
In your hearts -- and you consciences ... we all have one -- you know good and well that's why you attack him so viciously. If he really were all the things you say he is, he would be UTTERLY irrelevant.
Do you see a "relevant" anti-war movement or criticism of the administration today? There aren't any. It's Un-Patriotic.
I wish you all would just drift in peace and allow this man to spark some consciences where he can. Many of us would rather go down knowing how precious life is rather than just sort of fading to Grey in the Area of moral relativism and "war-time" powers which are obliterating forever what's left of our Constitution and exiling to another world entirely the letter and spirit of our Declaration.
As Horowitz writes The summary event I mentioned took place during a debate in the New Hampshire contest, moderated by Tim Russert. It was a moment when the redoubtable Keyesa preacher without a church stepped forward to call Sen. McCain to judgment. McCain's mortal sin was to reveal that he had been to a rock concert with his fifteen-year-old daughter and had liked a band called Nine Inch Nails.
In New Hampshire, McCain's misstep allowed Keyes to turn his lamp of righteousness on his hapless opponent.
Keyes (sternly): Don't you think that as leaders we ought to be a little bit more serious about the kind of influences that are now destroying the lives of our children, instead of aiding and abetting the cultural murder that is taking place?
McCain (to Russert): Can I get a life-line? (laughter)
Russert: Who do you want to call?
McCain: My 15-year-old daughter. (laughter)
Keyes (glowering): I'm a father and I've got to tell you I'm not laughing.
It was as if Keyes had caught the Senator making whoopie with the Antichrist.
While I'm no fan of McLame's, I remember the exchange and all I could do is shake my head and laugh. What a pompous little jerk.
When I was fifteen I went to Led Zeplin, The Who, Rolling Stones, Deep Purple,etc etc concerts in in New Orleans and I turned out alright.
The Keyster is a just a mean spirited little idiot.
Shall we work really hard for that 1,000 post goal? Who knows....if it goes fast, we may even set a new target, say 2,000....will certainly appreciate the help at that time, as well, and you can be assured I'll get the attention of others to let them know about your willingness to help out the conservative cause.
Bless your lil' old heart now and keep bumping....don't let the computer viruses take you down. :)
The job of coming up with new and substantive guests will belong to his producer. If he has a good one, Dr. Keyes will do at least a good a job as they do on Nightline.
There is no evidence that Microsoft and NBC have ceased to desire to make money. They know that the typical GOP tv watcher has more money to spend then the typical liberal. They want to get the money (by proving to advertisers that they are selling their products). This is an attempt to cash in on a successful market which FOX has been monopolizing. While they may be devoted lefties, what they really worship is their paychecks.
Wow, CAL, sounds a bit like Nightline with more joe citizen participation. Do you know if their is any chance that this show will be shown on CNBC also, like so much MSNBC, I get CNBC, not MSNBC.
