No Morning Joe in the morning. I turn it on out of habit, the channel

[monmouth]

is usually left there the night before. Tomorrow I will tune into local and just live with it..Hope everyone does the same. When Joey, who I hear has the juice with Capus and Griffin, starts to see his numbers plummet, he may realize how extremely popular Keith is. That must really annoy him...LOL. If Joe was suspended (bwahahahaha)I doubt there would be much of an outcry. Just a reminder.

1. What will every one be watching then, cuz fox is out and CNN is unwatchable

[tularetom]

2. Gotta be a "Law & Order" episode on somewhere

:shrug:

[monmouth]

10. Sometimes I purposely go to TCM and watch an old B&W. It's

very calming. 1930 and '40 films (especially the detective shows) are great.

[butterfly77]

25. I do too...

it takes me away like Calgon..

[monmouth]

3. I'm going to watch my local and then at 7:00 it goes to natl. I cannot

stand Matt Lauer so will have to channel surf. Local may give me enough news until I get to DU or maybe CNN will be tolerable.

[eleny]

5. First, I'm going swimming at the local rec center

When I get home I'm going to clean my house for a change and then I'm going to start sewing some curtains. No tv where I can sew. But I can listen to the radio and will probably catch Hartmann who airs tape delayed or maybe NPR.

I'll sew until it's time to make supper (homemade Chinese tomorrow night) and then it'll be time for Rachel. I'm curious about what might happen tomorrow and will decide if I'll watch Rachel and Lawrence after I read some DU. If not, I'll read a book in the evening for a change. There's always a stack!

How about you?

[Hawkeye-X]

20. OOh. Chinese. What kind, and can I come over?

:hi:

[eleny]

23. Assorted veggies, grilled chicken pieces and brown rice

C'mon down!

A while back my aunt and I made a mini shopping trip to the Asian market down in Alameda Square (where the old Denver County Social Services building used to be). That market is big, bright and not too pricey. So I prepared a whole bunch of veggies and froze them in bags. Now I have magic meals on the spot.

P.S. I heard we might have snow showers by Thursday.

21. Good heavens, xultar, why don't you read your political

news -- American Prospect, Mother Jones, Liberal Opinion Week, The Nation, The Progressive, The New Yorker. These are online as well. For other news, National Geographic, Wired, The American Gardener, Audubon Magazine, and many others, also on line.

If nothing suits you could always read mysteries from the library. But I'm biased -- except for Keith Olbermann, Rachel Maddow, and now Lawrence O'Donnell, I really despise TV. Even with those three mentioned, I've got to take a vacation from them -- the noise of the TV, the interminable commercials, even on mute, tend to give me a headache. I often skip the TV and watch their segments online.

[eleny]

26. The DVR has changed my tv watching for sure

Being able to zip passed the ads has saved so much time not to mention sanity.

[rug]

27. Bob.

[dkf]

4. Why does it matter if you aren't doing a Nielsen diary?

[eleny]

8. If you have a cable I heard they know what you watch and/or record via the the DVR

[dkf]

11. Are they? I hadn't heard they were invading our privacy that way.

[eleny]

15. Well, here's what Ed Schultz says...

He asks people to record his show if they can't catch it when it's live because he gets credit for a "watch". So it does sound like the cable provider can tell what's playing. But I've never seen anything in provider literature about it.

[Oceansaway]

6. easy...dead intern Joe never gets

watched by me.....never....

[Jensen]

7. Doing the same, local and then ....? It was hard Friday but I did it , NO MSNBC

until Keith comes back!K&R

[Sedona]

9. I listen to Stephanie Miller while getting ready for work

granted I'm a West Coast kinda girl

12. Try CSPAN's Washington Journal in the A.M.

Good for some belly laughs (the callers are hilarious).

:hi:

[monmouth]

18. I have a mad crush on Bill Press...Love his show...n/t

[sabrina 1]

24. True, I like Washington Journal too.

[proud2BlibKansan]

13. I only watch him if that channel is on when I turn on my TV

Then I immediately turn him off. I seriously can't stand that mother fucker. And Mika is no better than Schmoe.

[FrenchieCat]

14. Thanks. I stopped watching MSNBC till KO for a while now......

helps me be productive in my real life!

[deminks]

16. Yes, don't leave your cable parked on MSNBC overnight.

:kick:

[caty]

17. I watch

BBC world news on BBC America at 7 AM. I find out things that I never hear on our news networks.

[Angry Dragon]

19. You mean that guy that killed his intern in his office??

[lisa58]

22. I watch local news anyway, but I like the idea.

[Better Today]

28. I don't know how you could stand watching MSNBC before noon in the first place.

[jp11]

29. I wish I knew what this was about other than

the assumption that KO provides a false lead to Morning Joe's ratings, and if that is all there is to it I now feel silly for thinking there was more.

I turn to MSNBC over whatever infomercial is playing on the channel I had it on the prior night which usually starts me with first look or whatever the show(s) before Joe are then I watch MJ for a little while before heading off to work. I actually find it interesting in a sort of 'fox lite' way without all the propaganda, but what do I know I've never watched Fox news and never will.

[caty]

30. I always put my channel

on the weather channel before I turn the TV and cable box off.

[niyad]

31. between the food network, diy and planet green--who cares if dead intern joe is on?
