Why Hillary is still in the race.
Randi Rhoades on her Thursday, May 15th show NAILED it as to why Hillary is still in the race and campaigning so vigorously. Like Cenk said, "It's all about the MONEY, Lebowski!!!" Plus, for added goodness, Randi compares the Hillary Campaign's to Air America's financial RECKLESSNESS, in a clip I cut and posted to my (actaully my Dad's) mac.com web space. Let me know if you guys have trouble listening or downloading the clip, so maybe I can pass it off to somebody who can post it somewhere EASIER.permalink / read more (7 comments, 668 words in story)

Somebody please fill me in....? Thanks I think.

WWRL NEW YORK - WTFF?
What the fuckin' fuck?Finally, Air America "flagship" station in New York, WWRL, gets rid of the $350K paid right-wing shill Armstrong Williams in the morning...and brings in failed TV host Richard Bey with sidekick Mark Riley (who we still love from Morning Sedition, granted)?
Ummm what about putting Young Turks on in the morning? Cenk, who can we politely nudge about this? I'm so happy that the shill and closeted boy-harasser Williams is kicked off, even Lionel sounds better to me. But come on! What the fuckin fuck?

Why Brian Williams is Irrelevant
I've met and interviewed Brian Williams. He's a lovely guy. Personable, funnier than expected and smart. He is also irrelevant.There's nothing wrong with Brian Williams. He is a smooth, professional news anchor. He's not offensive, biased or fake. He plays it straight - and that's his problem.
It's not him. It's us. We're not interested in someone regurgitating the news to us and taking a half hour to do it. We don't need a professional news anchor to tell us what the news is. This isn't 1955. I've got all the news in the world at my fingertips, what do I need this guy to tell me what he thinks is important? Who cares what Brian Williams thinks is important?
In the old days, you needed these authority figures to sort out the news for you and tell you what was important and weed out the riff-raff. But these aren't the old days. I have a mind of my own. I don't need to borrow a news anchor's. And if I were to borrow one, that's not the first place I would look.
