Phil Griffin's moves at MSNBC make more sense now?

12. Who exactly was doing the slime throwing.

It certainly was not Keith. He attacked people's policies, not them personally. I remember when a woman who was substituting for him made some disparaging remarks about Dave Vitter's wife. She remarked to the woman's dress was so inappropriate when she stood beside him at his big public apology for using prostitutes. The next day Keith personally apologized to her on the air, He made it clear that such personal attacks had no place on his show and would not occur again. It may have upset Mr. Griffin that Keith chose the high road.

As for alienating the advertisers, Keith was the biggest money makers for MSNBC and had the largest audience. Only Rachael has matched his ratings since he left. Rush is a disgusting blowhard who directly appeals to all the haters and bigots in this country It is ridiculous to put him in the same category as Keith, an intelligent articulate professional.
