That's the word around the control/green room. Also, Russert is NBC News Bureau Chief which, I'm informed, is actually a higher-ranking position than Brokaw's (and therefore Rather's).(S)winehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07448245975795082170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5376280.post-1101927046924895322004-12-01T13:50:00.000-05:002004-12-01T13:50:00.000-05:00I'm definitely a Tim man.

Could you imagine the centerpiece of the NBC Washington division headed up with Mr. Hardball? <br /><br />Lauer is in the running, actually, unlike my choices, although he lacks the requisite helmet of hair. No word yet on whether CBS Master of the Universe, the sinister Darth Moonves will go for the balding pleasant Today Show host and break precedent.The Corsairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01804543581141264145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5376280.post-1101911016860951792004-12-01T09:23:00.000-05:002004-12-01T09:23:00.000-05:00NO WAY MATTHEWS GETS MEET THE PRESS.

Why do you think after all these successful years on cable, NBC will only use him in limited slots? He's a barking dog who hardly ever listens...that's not what MTP is all about. What ever happened to the Matt Lauer rumour? He'd be great in place of Rather.(S)winehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07448245975795082170noreply@blogger.com
