11. I only watch Martin Bashier regularly now.

Sometimes Lawrence. Sometimes Alex Wagner (who has probably the best and most intelligent program of all).

I'm so done with Rachel, for several reasons that I have said before. Chris Hayes is too hard to watch, although he does often make brilliant analyses. Tweety -- 'nuff said.

I watched Keith Olbermann EVERY DAMN NIGHT and would have watched him ALL DAY LONG.

He is the only one who was not owned by the PTB.
