24. Morning Joe and Joscar

Mon Feb 18, 2013, 10:41 AM

Feb 2013

I also have grown tired of the Morning Joe lack of objective content when it comes to issues important to the American people. MSNBC has a reasonably good evening line up of programs that objectively address the political issues, perhaps the network could switch Joscar and his merry band to the late evening, possibly midnight?
I am fortunate to receive Current TV on sat and can DVR programs which I tend to watch in the AM, Particuarily The Young Turks.
The CNN route is just not appealling as a viable alternative, once was a cutting edge network.
MSNBC had the opportunity to do better.
