If you don't like him, change the channel. Eventually if enough people do that, the channel will notice a drop in viewership at a particular time.
For example, see the reputed soon to be done shuffle that will move Chuck Todd to 9 AM. Apparently MSNBC noticed that after good numbers from 4-5 PM (Nicolle Wallace), viewership dropped at 5, and then went back up at 6 PM (Ari Melber). So there is talk that Todd will move to the slot following Morning Joe.
With the lackluster performance of Todds MTP Daily at 5 p.m.a hammock, as one insider put it, between the robust ratings of Nicolle Wallaces 4 p.m. show and Ari Melbers 6 p.m. showthere has been talk of switching Todd to 9 a.m., as Page Six first reported. Under that scenario, the current 9 a.m. anchor, Stephanie Ruhle, could move to 3 p.m., where her financial expertise would mesh well with the market closings.

I am trying to stay civil. Let's just call him a "very enthusiastic" number-cruncher on TV. nt

He locked up his "big board" screen last night after all the manic swiping and flailing around

His energy can be jarring, but he is always keyed into the bellwether questions
