All this kid does is repost PR releases from MSNBC/NBC. He didn't even bother to see if he could get some clarification from the Radar-on-line piece yesterday where Olbermann proclaims that Abrams runs only the dayside programming at MSNBC. Why? Afraid of offending the hand that feeds?

Little Brian is at it again, it wasn't enough that he had to post one press release from MSNBC he's posted two, stating that CNN should be afraid of MSNBC because they had one good night. Out of what? A 100? Please.

Great, great post, Robert. Did you see TVNewser today? Amazingly, this kid thinks he can post stuff about an 18-34 demo out of the blue, only when MSNBC 'won,' without MSNBC noticing.

Is there a way for you to ask MSNBC point-blank if a) they are paying Brian Stelter any money or b) has he been promised a job at the network?

Meant to say "without ANYONE noticing."

Oh fun...a right wing nut site. What did we expect from JD..and now we know why ICN has turned into a mouthpiece for fnc. Geez louise folks...get a life!

A preview of tonight's topics to be discuused and guests to be interviewed on Meltdown has leaked out. Word has it that Olby's computer has suffered technical problems and his usual "click and rip" technique for procuring his stories from the blue blogs, will not be in evidence tonight. With that in mind, tonight's lineup:

1) Incoming head of the House U.S. Intelligence Committee Sylvestre Reyes (D) is unable to answer even the most basic questions regarding our enemies in the War on Terror, failing to identify whether al Qaeda is Shiite or Sunni, for example. Reps Duncan Hunter (R) and Jane Harman (D) discuss the implications and whether this reflects the Dems lack of seriousness about the issue.
2) Rep. William Jefferson wins runoff in Louisiana. Embattled Rep. William "Cold Cash" Jefferson won his race, but now presents an ethical challenge to Democrats who have chastised Republicans for ethical lapses but not one Democrat has called on Mr. Jefferson to give up his seat in the face of such unequivocally unethical and probably illegal conduct. Have Dems been hoisted on their own petard? Have the Dems "handed a club" to the GOP for them to beat the Dems with on the ethics issue? Former Speakers Newt Gingrich (R) and Jim Wright (D) will discuss.

3) In an outgoing adddress in Independence, Missouri, United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan has harshly criticized the United States for allegedly failing to seek cooperation from the world community in facing world issues such as global terror. Unsaid in Annan's address was the axe that Annan has to grind against the United States because of its efforts in general (and those of John Bolton in particular) to expose the U.N. culture of corruption which exists w/ Annan's full knowledge and participation. Such scandals as the Oil for Food program from which Annan's son personally profited is a prime example of the graft and fraud that has permeated this increasingly irrelevant organization. John Bolton and Madeline Albright discuss.

Oddball

4) Citizens in the town of Chappaqua, New York have objected to the efforts of a merchant in this small town to purchase and display flags in the business district. The business person purchased the flags with private funds to encourage residents and nonresidents of Chappaqua to shop there. The flags have a blue backgound with white snowflakes and the word "Welcome" written vertically on each flag. Some resdients of Chappaqua objected stating that the flags look "too Jewish". The blue and white color scheme is symbolic of the flag of Isreal and some of the snowfalkes are said to to resemble the Star of David. No immediate comment from famous Chappaqua residents ex-President Bill Clinton and Senator Hilary Clinton was available, but speculation has now ramped up about whether the town's apparent anti-Semitic streak is a cultural dynamic that may have have been one reason the Clintons decided to settle here, of all places. Joe Lieberamnn (D) and Robert Byrd (D) will discuss.
