Why on earth is Tweety repeated in that time slot.From what I hear his show isn't all that great in the ratings

3. I know what you mean he seemed a little tired on the radio today
I know he said he had a cold but he seemed a little off his game

4. I'm convinced more than ever Keith quit, walked out .... They were
totally unprepared for this. I think changes will be made as time goes on. I'm glad Keith said more or less to take this job and shove it. If Ed is under the impression he's "primetime"..he doesn't know the viewing habits of the east coast. He did not get a great time slot in this debacle.

5. MSNBC lineup & XM
Tweety does not deserve a repeat. I don't watch him the first time. I liked O'Donnell in his later slot; he seems excessively stiff and slow-paced in his new spot; does he have a different producer? Yes, I say put Ed in at 7 Eastern; that's when I watch PBS Newshour, but I would record Ed & watch later. Ed was sick today with a cold on his radio show, said he couldn't take any more time off his show, guess is allowed just so many substitute hours.

Anyone else listen to XM 167, Talk Left? I have been protesting Alex Bennett (11-2 Central) via email to XM. He is the only one on that channel that I detest - boring as heck, old and out of date, no guests, few callers, lame co-talkers, shoot from the hip opinions, talks about his aches & pains all the time, vulgar humor. UGGGH. WHY is this person on anywhere; he's on some NY City station in the morning live. Please contact XM if you also would like to see another talker in that slot and help the protest. I like Mark Thompson (Make it Plain) which is allowed only one hour on XM, late in the afternoon, but understand his show is 2-3 hours on radio stations.

7. I agree about XM radio


The right wing channel has hard hitting people who talk politics all day.

On my Sirius radio I am stuck with Alex Bennett and Lynn Samuels. The last time I tuned into Alex Bennett he wasn't even talking about Politics. It sounded like he and his staff were reviewing TV shows or something. And this was the day after the SOTU! And Lynn Samuels with all of her attacks on Obama and paranoid theories almost makes her sound Palin'ish.


We are severely underrepresented on Satellite Radio.


Its a shame. There are some good talkers out there. How did we get stuck with this lineup?

8. Why couldn't Big Ed (and Cenk for that matter) go away? They're both loud-mouths
who don't seem very bright.

10. Some people like loud-mouths.
I'd rather see Rachel get another hour.

9. Ed doesn't have that end of the day type voice or show. He's all wound up, not the type of show you
crawl into bed and watch. I liked Lawrence at that time of day.
