Tom Brokaw Named to Russert Seat Through Nov. Election

Keith Olbermann is said to be crying himself to sleep! Heh.

NBC News has named Tom Brokaw moderator of Meet the Press through the 2008 presidential election, beginning next Sunday, June 29. The news was announced on the program today, a little over a week after the death of Tim Russert.

Thank God that little Keithy didn’t get the job.  Can you imagine what a joke that would be?

The credibility deficit alone would kill the show!

Brokaw is an extreme Left Wing liberal, there is not a non-partisan, fair or balanced bone in his socialist body. Better than Olbermann? At least with Keith we know what a liberal scum bag he is, while Brokaw plays like a nice guy, while shoving his liberalism down the throats of his listeners.

Of course, they could have picked Chrissy Matthews and I suspect after November if Osamabam wins, they still might go for Chrissy.

Chris Wallace of FOXNEWS SUNDAY comes closest to the fairness, honesty, humor and toughness that so characterized Tim Russert.

I agree pparets.  I think that Chris Wallace would do a better job.  However, I’m pretty sure that we shouldn’t count on seeing someone from FoxNews being hired anytime soon.  Can’t let a semiconservative run the show!

LOL, Thank goodness!
Olbermann isn’t a journalist and doesn’t even come close to qualifying for the position. He is merely an opinionated ass commentator and an foolish one at that.

Brian Williams was pretty spineless today, letting Biden push all the Obama talking points without challenging him on them.

The liberal MSM is going to run out of liberal/left news anchors and pap pushers—then what?  Will they hire someone who has not voted Dem all their adult life?  What fun it will be to watch as the MSM scrubs itself clean and lily white once again.  Maybe a series of national town hall meetings with the Kalbs, Rooneys, Moyers and the like debating the middle of the road wonderfulness of the MSM.

Halatbis on June 22, 2008 at 04:40 pm

I agree Mark.  I caught part of the rerun and Williams didn’t challenge anything Biden said.  I did think that Gram held his own pretty well.

If it is being said, it is only by nitwit nutters who just can’t be bothered with actual facts.

As for myself, not only have I never threatened to quit if I don’t get Tim Russert’s job. Not only have I not vied for it. Not only has the subject not even come up between me and anybody who will be involved in this sad task. Not only did the Post make this up. Not only is the very subject of Tim Russert’s job not appropriate now, as anyone with a shadow of a heart would understand, but I don’t even consider myself qualified for it.

Have you ever seen one of Brokaw’s interviews of Bush? He was softer than Jeff Gannon on the guy. Brokaw sucked up to Dubya so much I thought he was going to start sucking him off.

That’s because Wallace, O’Reilly, et al, are partisan hacks and serial liars—-exactly what you people want from your media.

Jack on June 22, 2008 at 05:45 pm

I’m pretty sure that Mr. Gannon was hard on the guys.
But only bush would know for sure.

TIM Russert’s body wasn’t even cold in the ground before MSNBC anchors Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann started jockeying for his job, sources claim.

what are you babbling about boob? The link I gave was via Suitably flip, which I had viewed earlier in the day.
But I didn’t see any video. Where is that, delusional boob?

I went to the page you linked to and read it. I did not feel compelled to click on any of the links there. I figure they’ll probably show up without attribution in one of your reader blogs sooner or later!

Speaking of not being able to figure stuff out, have you figured out that when you borrow stuff without attribution it’s plagiarism?

BTW, rbb: You’re probably a pretty poor judge of character if you don’t think either Olbermann or little Chrissy Matthews wouldn’t have taken the MTP job in a New York minute if it had been offered to them.

All that false (in his mind!) modesty is just him trying to save face! (see Aesop: Sour grapes)

Well, he’d have to be more precise than you, cut-and-paste-boob! I imagine he gives attribution to his sources at least occasionally!

If you’re not going to plagiarize someone, how about another pointless photoshopped picture (that you won’t give anyone else credit for) or maybe a little “pocketa pocketa” action?

I would exactly call Russert objective either.
Both were/are liberals.

It enjoyed watching Chis Matthews express awe at the intelect and integrity of Tim Russert, while lamenting the fact that Russert supported the war in Iraq.

Unlike Matthews, Russert was a devout Catholic who believed that some causes were worth dying for.  It’s pretty hard to convince secular numbskulls like Matthews that dying is necessary at all—at least, without triggering litigation.

There is only one guy out there who might be a credible replacement for Russert, and that is Chris Wallace.  If he were to get the nod, I believe the Democrats might be pleasantly surprised, and the Republicans might feel a bit betrayed.  Wallace would possess none of Russert’s warmth, but he would be every bit as objective, which would make spending time with him every politician’s nightmare.

Brian Williams, by the way, was Joe Biden’s bitch yesterday.  My guess is the ratings will tank unless and until a “new” Russert is found.  Of course, if you can believe it, NBC isn’t in it for the ratings—which would be a good thing if it were true.
