David Shuster Possibly out at MSNBC?

[MadBadger]

Its been reported that he taped a pilot over at CNN. MSNBC obviously wasnt too happy about that.

Now shuster.msnbc.com has been wiped clean. It's blank.

Here is a summary of everything that has happened with the Shuster situation.

1. Damn damn,damn.... please don't let this be so... n/t

[havocmom]

2. MSNBC has not acknowledged Shuster's contributions and potential

They are fools

[Warpy]

4. That's true, although he's been all over the place

almost as much as Tweety has.

Maybe he'll give CNN a little of the class it desperately needs. They need someone to groom to take over for any one of their rapidly aging ranters.

[ecstatic]

7. He deserved Dylan's spot

Instead they had him doing all sorts of silly segments at several different hours of the day.

[Political Heretic]

9. I like Dylan.... I think.

From what I've see, which is not a lot.

[Lilyeye]

12. I agree. He should have had Dylan's spot.

And why couldn't that lame ass Chuck Todd be the one out. He belongs on Faux News.

[Catshrink]

3. I wonder if he'll replace Christiane Amanpour

who is leaving for ABC?

5. I'm really sorry to hear that. I liked David, but MSNBC has been

trreating him pretty bad lately. It's no fun to work split shifts like he's been doing, and for some reason they feel they had to have a co-anchor with him in the afternoon. I can't blame him for looking for greener pastures.

8. Looks like I'll have to start tuning in CNN to get my Schuster fix!

[malaise]

6. I thought he sounded very sad today

It wasn't the usual Shuster.

10. and Contessa Brewer remains? There is no justice! n/t

[Neecy]

11. noooooooooo

He's the best reason to watch MSNBC during the day. I refuse to watch CNN.

[Jane Austin]

13. Disaster.

CNN is horrible - through and through.

Everybody there, from Blitzer to John King to Dana Bash to Candy Crowley to Howard Kurtz to . . . .

I cannot watch that channel except for Fareed Zakaria's show.

I won't watch all those other clowns just to see David Shuster - and he's one of my MSNBC faves.

Damn.

[brooklynite]

14. CNN wouldn't invest in a Pilot that they didn't think could be developed...

Either Schuster is at the end of his MSNBC contract or thought he could get out of it.

[medeak]

15. k & r in support of Shuster n/t

[NNN0LHI]

16. Didn't(doesn't), Shuster's father work at CNN?

[meowomon]

17. I'll watch what ever he does.

He gets to the bottom of things.

[mod mom]

20. I agree I would follow him to CNN as well.

[WeDidIt]

18. If Shuster jumps to CNN, I'll watch him there. n/t

[Cleita]

19. On the bright side, does this mean that CNN is going to start to hire

more lefties, especially since it seems that FOX's Nielsen ratings were cooked? Since CNN was trying to be FOX light and the ratings they were looking for weren't there, is it possible we might get something like the old CNN back? I hope he replaces Wolfie!

[Kind of Blue]

22. Exactly, if Shuster goes there it'll be the first

time I've tuned to CNN in years. And I'm sure others will follow him there. If it's true about he and Michel Martin - who I really like on NPR - then her listeners will tune in as well.

[LostInAnomie]

21. He should have gotten Ratigan's spot.

Shuster knows his shit and refuses to be ran over with a bunch of bullshit talking points. He's leaps and bounds better than Dylan.
