And really, the network stumbled upon progressive analyst/activism by accident though the relative success of uncontrollable Keith Olbermann. Before that, their failed experiment with Donahue was what lead to MSNBC prior strategy of mimic Fox News in tone and politics. The thinking was that America was conservative and Republican after all. The success of Fox *and* the GOP and the Bush Campaign and Administration at the time seemed to bear this out. A vestige of this time, beside Buchanan, is Joe Scarborough who hosts the network's lovely morning Dom-com "Joe Loves Mika". But if Buck is out, who are they going to get to play the part of the "lovable racist old uncle"? Ron Paul is too busy with his perpetual campaign for President of Austria-America. -- Wesley McGee http://www.ambivi.com http://sterlingnorth.vox.com http://drawing-a-blank.tumblr.com Twitter: @westwit G+: http://plus.google.com/113413697748381364954 Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/wesleymcgee -- TV or Not TV ....
