I'm thinking Ed Schultz might become the 10 p.m. guy on MSNBC

[Armstead]

There were stories a while back that MSNBC is looking to replace the 10 p.m. rerun of Countdown with a new show.

Ed Schultz is subbing for David Schuster. He did it before, and he's been on the network a lot lately.

My hunch is that he is being autitioned and/or groomed for a host slot.

Any thoughts?

1. Beats the hell out of AC360!

17. An hour of the Emergency Broadcast Signal with the sound On

beats AC360

2. that was my thought too when i saw him sub recently

[polichick]

3. Looks like it - fine by me.

4. I was initally opposed to the idea....

... because I like as much Keith as they're willing to give me. But I'd prefer Ed to ANYONE else on the planet.

5. that's how they tested Maddow. she side kicked for Keith

and when her witty and intelligent comments were seen as not only credible but building their own audience....voila!

I can see MSNBC making a huge surge past Fauxnews one of these days.

12. Someone posted that he's going to interview Obama this week.

[snowbear]

13. Yep! President Obama will be on Big Eddie's show tomorrow !!

President Barack Obama will join the show Thursday March 19th 2009!

WTG Big Ed !!! ~~~~~

[Thrill]

14. You know Eddie is going to ask about the EFCA

[snowbear]

18. I didn't catch the details about the interview.. Only caught...

.
.

...A few minutes of Norman Goldman who sat in for Big Ed today, and he was all excited about Ed's big interview tomorrow.

First Big Ed scores a front row seat at a press conference, now this!!

15. I don't know about Fargo Eddie

but I sure am lovin' Ron Reagan on Air America. He's doing a fantastic job on the radio and I think he'd be even better on teevee.

16. What MSNBC Really Needs is High Definition!

I sometimes watch other channels merely to get a high def feed.
