Chris Hayes tells MSNBC no thanks - will not be filling in for KO tonight.

OK: I'm not filling in on Countdown tonight because I didn't feel comfortable doing it given the circumstances. <1/2>

My not hosting tonight has *nothing* to do with several donations I made to two friends *before* I ever signed an MSNBC contract <2/2>

The hypocrisy of this decision is unbelievable.
