86. Lawrence O'Donnell is the Best There Is On MSNBC - Save His Show: Call 212 664 4444

Sun May 14, 2017, 06:48 PM

May 2017

I personally believe he is better than Rachel (much as I appreciate her).

Tonight, I called MSNBC at the following number (212) 664-4444. I asked to speak to some one in MSNBC management, and was switched to the MSNBC news extension. I left a message that they will most probably lose me as a viewer if they drop Lawrence.

Of course, I didn't get a live auditor, it being Sunday evening. but I did establish that the above number can get you into MSNBC, unlimited to any particular program.

I urge everyone who agrees with me to call the above number tomorrow and let the network know how you feel, so that Lawrence's support can be registered with them.
