Having three non-conservatives on MSNBC doesn't make it a left-wing propaganda network. Especially considering the fact that Cenk is a former Republican with some pretty moderate stances on domestic issues.

I think the former Republican/left of center moderate angle IS unique from both Olbermann and Maddow. Conservatives already love Fox News, Morning Joe and a zillion radio shows. That market is over-saturated, and that demographic is pretty much tapped out.

Cenk would bring in a *younger* demographic that is largely untapped, and that includes many of the enthusiastic youngins' and minorities that just got involved in politics for the first time in 08'. Not to mention that TYT is a bridge between old media and New Media.
