Life Through My Eyes
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again – Countdown with Keith Olbermann is was the only news show I regularly watched on MSNBC. I have always preferred CNN over MSNBC. I’m feeling a little under the weather today, so I didn’t have the T.V. on so you can imagine my surprise when suddenly …
In the immediate aftermath of the shooting in Arizona, I quickly wrote about what I was thinking then. Now that a few more days have passed since, here are some of my expanded and more coherent (hopefully) thoughts on the matter. The second half will discuss tonight’s memorial in Arizona, which was appropriately themed as …
I have so many thoughts on this issue, but I can’t seem to put the sentiment of it all together. By now, I’m sure you have read online or watching news on TV about the fact that a 22 year old shot and killed 6 people (including a judge and a CHILD) and wounded about 12 others …
So as you may (or may not have) heard, MSNBC ‘indefinitely’ suspended Keith Olbermann earlier today in light of the news that Olbermann donated to three democratic candidates in the midterm election. Olbermann, who acknowledged the contributions, made the maximum legal donations of $2,400 to each of the three candidates. According to POLITICO: NBC has a rule …
So did you guys see this? I, in fact, hadn’t because I don’t watch much TV (and therefore I don’t see many commercials). One of my professors showed it in class today and it just made me laugh: P.S. Don’t forget to leave me a comment below on your thoughts! As always, I’d love to hear from you.
Is it just me… or did twitter suddenly become really big this week (for news reporters)? It seems as if all the journalists on the major news channels (at least the ones i watch most often) have joined it this weekend and keep talking about it on their shows. It’ll be interesting to see in …
I’m signed up to receive breaking news from both CNN and MSNBC, and I literally just got a Breaking News alert from MSNBC alerting me like fifteen minutes ago (after the debate) that “Man now known as Joe the Plumber (25 deb mentions) has gone 2 sleep”. Um, do I care? A little absurd don’t …
Stars from “Gossip Girl” star in an ad made by Moveon.org in support for Barack Obama … well actually it’s more of an ad AGAINST John McCain. The ad runs along the theme of the famous anti-drug ad’s that everyone has seen. This ad urges the viewers to “talk to their parents” about the consequences …
This afternoon was the memorial service that MSNBC held in memory of Tim Russert. Tim Russert’s son, Luke, also spoke. Tim Brokaw, Brian Williams, Maria Shriver, and Luke Russert were just four of the ten speakers who spoke in the service. Here are the links to watch most of the speakers from the memorial service …
As I was sitting at work today in the city, I received a breaking news alert on my cell informing me that after suffering a sudden heart attack and collapsing, Tim Russert died today at the age of 58. Russert was recording voiceovers for Sunday’s “Meet the Press” program when he collapsed, the NBC News …
