3. They fire her because they didn't like her column.
I heard they fired Moore after they got pressure from the Repugs.

9. they fired her because she would take out the libel of her column
and since he had a column in the paper today, and was going to be at the garden today, we'll have to see what happens tomorrow.

but moore's supposed to be on letterman tonight, so maybe we'll find out what's what.

14. Is there a resource for Moore being on Letterman tonight?
Someone else posted about that, but when I looked on Letterman's schedule, it isn't listed...

If you happen to know of some confirmation of it, I'd be most happy. :)

Thanks.....

Kanary

7. From what I understand....
I think I heard this from NPR yesterday but MM is still doing the column...he just doesn't want to go back to MSG. He wasn't fired though.

12. I just saw an AP photo of him at the convention
surrounded by photogs and reporters. So, I guess he made it.
Awesome column this morning, by the way. Make sure to go out and buy the paper, NOT just read it online.
