CNN's morning show very informative and engaging.

Like a mini 60 minutes. I like the way they allow those guests who are providing testimony to their personal stories, the ability to talk without interruption. Lots of compassion.

The segments are on point with what is important for the day. Structured in the right way. And I absolutely love the way they shut down savvy spinmeisters from the other side. It's a no bullshit zone.

1. I wish they'd wise up and devise some way for those of us with Roku to watch it.

Every other station has managed.

5. You can listen for free at Tunein completely legal. That's what I do links:

for MSNBC:

It's about a five minute delay. But, I think it's great they offer it for us who don't want to pay for cable, free access.

6. SiriusXM carries CNN too.

7. Thank you!

2. Brianna Keilar is a great addition to the show. She is really good!

[Baitball Blogger]

9. Absolutely.

More than a couple of times, when a segment ended and I thought I had a break to walk outside, she came on and I came back to watch. I also feel like the men on the show have raised their game. What they have to say also interests me.

[Peppertoo]

12. I think you mean man of the show. There is one John Berman with her.

[Baitball Blogger]

16. They have other guests or correspondents participating in the show.

[Peppertoo]

17. Yeah. That is right.

[Treefrog]

18. Berman is the co-host. I've long been a fan.

Surprised people are just discovering this show.

[Peppertoo]

20. I have been a fan of Brianna's for a long time. Don't know John well.

They seem to work together well.

19. She's my favorite from either CNN or MSNBC!

Keilar has become viciously honest about right-wing lies over the last few years. and the faster pace is much more enjoyable to me compared to Maddow.

[Peppertoo]

21. Yes. Brianna is also more adept at interviewing than Rachel.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

22. Agreed.

I don't sense the hesitancy from Keilar that she displayed when dealing with Michael Cohen a few years ago. Not that she did too poorly in that exchange either, but I don't think she'd be as polite about it now.

[Peppertoo]

23. Says who?

That was so good!


I think that is when the penny dropped and she realized that there was a huge difference between the Trumpers and ordinary politicians. She grew as an interviewer with that exchange.

3. I need to start watching

Morning Joe is just a habit I guess.

[Dennis Donovan]

8. MJ is trying to capture 4 year old lightning in a bottle for ratings that revolve round a circus act

....that hasn't moved on to less urine-pungent sawdust.

[underpants]

13. Now THAT was a review!

[Baitball Blogger]

10. I have jumped over Morning Joe.

I will come back to MSNBC at nine.

[underpants]

14. Yes

CNN > Morning Joe. The greater than symbol “>” won’t post in the title area.

11. It's less casual than the Morning Joe show.

[Hortensis]

15. No. A lot more news, a lot less opinion monologue. Not to draw

any other comparison, but it's a lot more like Fox in its energy, and I liked the zippy Friday roundup of what'd happened during the week. In my little exposure, I haven't seen the conservative spin Joe's slipping in, though that could well change.

Definitely different in any case, though. This is more what I'd been missing to start the day, the choice between Camerota's Fox-lite and Joe not what a choice for me.

24. This was their response to Tucker today - they did it tag team.

[Baitball Blogger]

25. It was very effective.

[Peppertoo]

26. It was. I hope they do more like that.
