David Shuster to Return to the Airwaves
He just Tweeted this...

I'm returning to the airwaves as the sub for Jim Bohannon on his terrific radio show this Wed. Dec. 29 from 10pm - 1am http://tiny.cc/a8kou

Thanks to all of you in advance for listening in. The show airs on +300 stations nationwide and streams live on the web site.

I'm amazed that he hasn't surfaced before now. Did he not WANT to? Or has he been totally blacklisted by the MSM? I always thought someone would pick him up.

1. Shuster was under contract to MSNBC until this month:

I suspect that he was contractually forbidden to broadcast until his contract with MSNBC expired.

7. He was and techically his contract ends 12/31/10
he may not even be able to address his MSNBC relationship until after he has formally been released by them.
Besides working on his Masters, he has been developing other potential journalism projects in other forums.

5. I agree! I miss David Schuster but I'm NOT tuning in to Bo
just to hear David. I HOPE he will get a full time gig sometime soon.

11. I know that but I'd have to keep checking to see when the idiot in off,
an also feel like I'd be supporting Bo's show, even though he wasn't there. Kinda like someone told me today that they watch Sarah's show because they love seeing the beauty of AK. They still show up as a viewer of her show!!!

14. Here:
Apparently, Phil Griffin likes suspending people. Unfortunately for David Shuster, he didn't have the huge activist fan base that KO does. :(
