If it's true, I'm glad, but who woulda thunk?

[nostamj]

9. I've heard talk of a Howard Dean Show

I forget who he's subbing for tonight...

[Melinda]

14. Tina Brown, eom

[mzmolly]

11. I can't wait!!!

:hi:

[NightOwwl]

12. Is CNBC changing their format?

I thought their focus was financial news.

BTW, thanks for the heads up! This is going to be good.

[NoPasaran]

13. Need to figure out what channel is CNBC here

:kick:

[madfloridian]

15. Here is the full schedule for the show tonight.

From the blog:

Governor Dean Guest Hosts Topic A
See Howard Dean as the guest host of "Topic with Tina Brown" this weekend:

Sunday, August 8th
Airing at 8:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. on CNBC

The upcoming election, the electronic voting system and the potential for lost votes and computer hacking are of great concern to many Americans. Joining Governor Dean to discuss the E-voting issue are Author/Digital Activist Bev Harris and California Secretary of State Kevin Shelley. Harris will also demonstrate how easy it is to access and hack into a computer and the ominous implications of the E-voting system.

Dean will also be joined by Jon Stewart from "The Daily Show" for a one-on-one discussion about the success of his Comedy Central program with the 25 and under set; the approach his show takes to the news, their spin on the media at large, and of course, Stewart's jabs at Dean on the campaign trail.

In a roundtable discussion about the issue of race in this country will be Tavis Smiley, NPR radio host and syndicated radio host Tom Leykis discussing recent comments about the black family made by actor Bill Cosby at a Rainbow Coalition event.

In addition, outspoken Actor/Comedian Margaret Cho will talk to Dean about her widely anticipated stand up tour, "State of Emergency," which launches next month.

"I am delighted to be stepping in for Tina this week. This is an opportunity to speak about issues that can change this country," said Dean. "I am glad to have this opportunity to discuss topics that are of relevance to all Americans.

[Fleshdancer]

16. Pure heaven

This lineup sounds too good to be true! I can't wait

[nostamj]

17. and catch Sibel Edmonds on 60 Minutes at 7

to make a real night of it!

[vetwife]

18. Thanks for the Heads up !

[GCP]

19. I looked on their schedule, she isn't mentioned

are you sure she's on?

[nostamj]

20. there was a thread on it earlier n/t

[NYCGirl]

26. Yes, she's on tonight. Here's the link:

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/1998/07/08/60minutes/main13502.shtml

LOST IN TRANSLATION - A whistleblower tells Ed Bradley that when information from terrorism suspects needed urgent translation right after the 9/11 attack, the FBI unit that did that work deliberately slowed down. And now, the FBI admits one reason it fired her is that she blew the whistle.

[janx]

34. If you're looking for Bev Harris, see post #15.

People are now talking about and linking to two completely different television shows/subjects in this thread.

[janx]

33. I'll have to watch the later one, but I'll be sure to do so.

Thanks, MF. :hi:

[Zhade]

21. Wonder if Bev will mention her Qui Tam suit?

I'm still waiting for an explanation of the discrepancy between her accusing others of filing suits (which didn't happen) while filing one herself - with the knowledge that the way her suit was filed wouldn't seal evidence (so why did she say at the same time that ANY such suit would cause the evidence to be sealed if she knew otherwise?).

Whatever. Anger OFF.

</instigation>

Can't wait to see Jon and Dean!

[nostamj]

22. .

[LSU_Subversive]

23. We've been avoiding cable/network news for so long, we had no idea

they were actually doing this. We watched the Krugman talk last night. This weekend's show can't actually be representative of what's normally available can it? What's going on?

If it weren't for DU, we wouldn't have known that either of these segments were scheduled.

[unfrigginreal]

24. Link needs a period after www

http://www.nytimes.com/2004/08/08/opinion/08sun3.html

[Reciprocity]

25. Thanks , lets keep this kicked up for folks like me.

Ozzy Osborne has a longer short-term memory than I do.

[Kanary]

31. I have a good memory, it's just short.

:evilgrin:

[Blue Gardener]

27. Kick

Don't want anyone to miss this!

[reprehensor]

28. Thanks for posting.

Woulda missed it.

[proud patriot]

29. 50 minutes til showtime kick

:kick:

[proud patriot]

40. Shoot I had the time wrong ..10 min ..til showtime Kick

:kick:

[Reciprocity]

32. Kick

[Cha]

35. Kick

Looking forward to all your insights on this.

[Ladyhawk]

36. Could someone--Wonk?--capture this for those of us who can't watch? n/t

[Ladyhawk]

37. Could you fix your link?

It's wwwnytimes.com. You need a period (not that kind of period). :)

[nostamj]

39. I'm sorry

but it's MUCH too late to edit. don't know how it happened. was a cut/paste from someone else's post, so the problem was probably in that post too.

I missed the error as I had already read the article and didn't use my link...

again, my apologies.

[madmax]

38. Must see

:kick: :bounce:

Thank you Dr. Dean!! :bounce:

[CatWoman]

42. coming up next

:kick:

[AntiCoup2K4]

43. The Doc actually seems pretty comfortable as a TV host

Has he done this before? :shrug:

[Robbien]

44. Love Jon's comeback when Dean tried to

make it appear that Jon's show is an important force in politics.

"There was a man in Germany back in the 1930's who did political commentary who said we sure showed him"

Jon is adamant. He is fake news. No more, No less.

[Cha]

46. It's an important force in politics whether Jon cops to it

or not.


And, I don't get this.."There was a man in Germany back in the 1930's who did political commentary who said we sure showed him"

[Robbien]

51. How much did political commentary effect

Hitler and his plans?

Political commentary at that time had no effect. Jon thinks he doesn't either.

[madfloridian]

88. But he does. He knows it.

He is pretending so the right wing minds don't explode from truth.
:evilgrin:

[Robbien]

89. I believe he really just wants to be a comedian

He doesn't want to be "the news". But people are dragging him to the newsroom while he is kicking and screaming all the way.

[0007]

45. Fantastic!

48. hey buddy

want to get that shit out of here?

[Rose Siding]

52. Oh the horror!

"...she will feed the media "progressive" news, some of which appears to be a smear campaign against the President of the United States!" *gasp*

[jdj]

76. Who's smearing President Gore?? I'll kick their ass!!!

Let me at 'em!!

[AntiCoup2K4]

54. Go spam freeperville with your bullshit

Oh yeah, they probably sent you here :eyes:

[ParanoidPat]

69. No, believe it or not, he's from Bart Cop!!!

:shrug:

[nostamj]

74. i know

but i dare not comment further...

[Kathy in Cambridge]

55. Nice try

:eyes:

[Cheswick2.0]

60. I am sorry for your frustration, however you should know

The people here are not likely to be upset about Harris "smearing" the Resident in the whitehouse. All of us think he got there by stealing the election and we think he has killed americans and Iraqis in his lust for power in the middle east.

As far as your busines with Bev, why are you posting about it here? Here we are very worried about the Black box voting problems. Your issues pale in comparison.

[nostamj]

49. i was about to panic but

they just promo'd Bev

as for the previous "not flaming" post... :puke:

[CatWoman]

50. i'm on it

i've already alerted that bullshit

:hi: cutie pie

[Moonbeam_Starlight]

53. I did, too

and who wants to read all that, anyway? Sheesh.

[janx]

59. More than you know. I'd like to spread her name around,

if she's still in business...!

[WilliamPitt]

56. THIS IS THE BEST GODDAM CABLE TELEVISION I'VE SEEN IN 10 YEARS

[Cha]

57. Please tell us more!

B-)

[janx]

61. Yeah--I have to wait another couple of hours to watch it.

[Bluebear]

58. You got that right!

And not just for content, it's calm, it's conversational, it's in-depth...surely my eyes deceive me!

[rucky]

62. what was it 10 years ago?

OJ?

[FlaGranny]

67. It's almost like reading the

posts on DU. ;-)

Howard Dean is a great interviewer.

[Moonbeam_Starlight]

83. You said it Will

Dean is a bit unpolished, but I always liked that about him, anyway.

Wasn't it REFRESHING??? I don't ever normally turn on the TV, but I will for things like that, The Daily Show and convention coverage on CSPAN.

[KittyWampus]

63. Wow, This Is Real TV Journalism. I Could Almost Cry

first time I watched Bill Moyers Now... I DID cry.

[CatWoman]

65. Oh,

SHUT UP
SHUT UP
SHUT UP

:D

It's like night and day, isn't it?

[Junkdrawer]

64. BTW: They must have cut the most disturbing part of Bev's demo...

And that is that, after her edit, the detailed report would have shown that nothing was changed. That is, the election would have passed a spot check and yet the election summary (what is used to call the election) would have changed.

[nostamj]

68. they also glossed over

the fact that a password was needed to VIEW the results but NO PASSWORD was needed to HACK the vote!

[Junkdrawer]

73. I'm sure Bev will chime in at some point.

Let's see what she says.

[Cheswick2.0]

66. I love Howard Dean...OMG it is great to see him doing this

Yes you can tell he is new at this, but It is such a pleasure to see someone allow their guests to answer. I don't usually gush over politicians except for how they relate to the issues etc.... but he is too damn adorably cute to shut up about.
This is such a pleasure.
I guess I am going to have to go join crushies for Dean now.

[Rose Siding]

70. He was wonderful with Margaret

I love him too.

[Moonbeam_Starlight]

84. I started crushies for Dean last summer.

In fact, I also started Hot Big-Chested Women for Dean last September.

Oh yeah. He's a cutie, alright. Just give me him, Edwards, and a private room for an hour with my husband's blessing!

O8)

[madfloridian]

86. LOL

I have seen that site. It is so funny and cute. LOL

[Zhade]

96. So...where does this group meet?

:evilgrin:

[Robbien]

71. How great it is that our Bev got to sit beside Dean

and show Dean what's what.

Dean listened and cared. And Shelby (in California, in my mind the jury is still out on him on certain other issues) is taking a correct firm stand on this issue.

It is obvious.

Why is this still allowed to happen in all states and questioned only in one?

[unfrigginreal]

72. Damn, what a program!

I know that I'm biased but the Gov sure had a knack for this. And great topics, shit I wish this would become a weekly program.

[gristy]

75. Glad to see Dean following up on my discussion on BBV with him last summer

:) Actually, it wasn't much of a conversation. For 5 minutes as we walked from the gate at Albany Airport to the curb, I talked and he listened. You rock, Howard!
:yourock:

[Cha]

77. How neat to see that conversation develope into this

..on cable tv with Bev Harris.

[Bushfire]

99. he's been hearing about BBV all along the campaign trail

and I'm also glad he seems to finally have listened. He was given personally copies of Salon.com's articles of Bev.

[madfloridian]

78. That was excellent. I liked that he had Cho on and gave her a chance.

The way she was cancelled at the convention was upsetting. I am not a fan especially, but it was just too much.

You can tell he and Tavis Smiley are friends.

Thought the segment with Stewart went really well.

Obvious that this is new to Dean, being a host. But he did a pretty smooth job of it.

He always said he would be loyal to those who supported him, and Cho did. And he is.

[Cha]

79. Yes, when I saw Cho was on ...I thought that

was pretty cool. Dean sure had a lot of great people jammed packed in his hour.

I hope the ratings were good.

[BuelahWitch]

80. Margaret Cho is fantastic

I liked when he said at the end for her not to get arrested because he wants to see her show at the Apollo. I'll go see her if she comes to Misery (Missouri ;-).

Wow, whole hour that was informative and truthful without the BS of the cable network news. What will they think of next? ;)

[madfloridian]

81. Dean did not sound like he knew that C-Span carried Hilary and Chelsea.

Did you hear him ask Stewart about it? I don't think he realized they cut away to that during his ovation at the convention.

[Cha]

82. What did c-span cut away to during his Standing Ovation

at the convention? I didn't realize that they cut anywhere.

[madfloridian]

85. They put the cameras on Chelsea and Hilary sipping something.

I think there was nothing to it, but the way they did it was irritating. They moved the cameras from Dean to them in the audience.....very obviously to divide Democrats.

At least I thought it looked that way. Being careful how I word it here.

[janx]

87. It looked like champagne to me, as if they were toasting Dean.

[Rose Siding]

90. I can't find an e-mail for that show

"Topic A with Tina Brown"...or any general one for CNBC. Just a phone number for comments: 877-251-5685

[Aftershock]

91. Bev Harris was impressive tonight.

She showed us how easily and quickly the electronic voting machines can be tampered with (90 seconds).

I hope a lot of people saw this. I'm in an uproar about how easy these machines can be fixed, and everyone who votes should feel the same way.

[vetwife]

92. She was very good..Way to go Bev!

State of Florida Sec. of State declined invitation to appear. Glad Dr. Dean told it ! And the spokespeople from Diebold

[madfloridian]

93. Screen captures for those who missed it.

Not complete but quite a few.
http://www.takeyourcountryback.com/DEAN_TOPIC_A/

[janx]

94. THIS IS KILLING ME! Do you remember this?! Did they go

back to the Daily Show footage for this? I can't wait to watch this tonight.

The screen capture is even better than what I saw on the telly all those months ago!

This is SO funny!

[madfloridian]

95. They showed a lot of Daily Show footage.

I like that they both agreed it was damage control. I really enjoyed the whole thing.

[janx]

97. Thanks, MF.

:hug:

I'll tune in in about ten minutes for the rebroadcast.

[Ladyhawk]

98. I'm watching the re-broadcast now, but I missed Jon Stewart.

Did anyone capture this?

BTW, Dean was pretty good, eh?
