3. I have a confession to make. I ... liked it.
I liked the concepts, I liked his counterparts, and he himself was pretty amusing at times.

But um.

4. i liked the show too
I enjoy listening to Rachel Maddow and Max Kellerman (used to host Around the Horn on ESPN). Carlson is one of the few conservatives who doesn't annoy me since he not your typical angry, bitter, boring, talking points reading conservative...

5. On TVNewser, Rick Kaplan is saying it's not going to be a right-wing show
"What we have on the air is not a right-wing program or a left-wing program or even a middle-of-the-road program. We think that we have a program that's full of opinion and full of biases on all sides. I think that's really the key. You want to leave it with the viewers to make their own determinations."

I didn't watch the show, but in my opinion, MSNBC already too many shows which let the viewers form their own determinations. I know how it works: Repuke guests come on and lie their asses off, and if we're lucky there might be a liberal or more moderate guest there to refute the lies and keep the fake "balance" that is so acceptable today on cable news channels.
