Rachel Maddow is moving to a "prominent morning drive-time spot" on AAR.

[Lex]

Rachel Maddow, a regular on The Situation with Tucker Carlson, is about to move into a more prominent morning drive-time spot on Air America Radio. "Rachel is the universal donor of good chemistry," MSNBC rising star Bill Wolff says...

1. Good!

I like her wonkishness, always thought she would be better than Springer.

2. She's Is Very Resourceful

Very good news!!!!

3. Hooray !!!.....i like Rachel !!!

4. sounds to me more like she will replace morning sedition

6. Why can't Rachel join Marc and Mark? I want it all. :-(

11. I've been saying since they canned Unfiltered, IndyOp

I've always said that Rachel is the perfect cure for Morning Sedition's lack of gravitas, and that their shows should be melded!

13. That would be a great combination!

She could do hard news and interviews and leave the Marks to do their thang. She's a little too serious for the morning all by herself.

5. I saw that reported on some other media site today!!!

Rachel is GREAT! My top 3 in 'prog' radio would be Mike Malloy, Rachel Maddow and Stephanie Miller! Sorry Randi!!!

12. Keep your fingers crossed, Myers

Al Franken peddled his book on Stephanie's show last week--quite surprising since they're supposed to be rivals. Could there be some kind of syndication deal in the works?

7. She's awesome

She really has a skill for presenting her points.

[Lex]

8. I agree. And she doesn't just rant and rave. She makes points.

And I like that.

9. Hmmmm, interesting...

Guess I'll have to check it out...

10. Thanks!!!

That's great news. Rachel's been on too early in the morning for me to catch her, and it's a bit uncomfortable for me to watch her on Bowtie Boy's show.

14. actually I think Rachel will be working with Mark but not Marc

and I like them both and wish all 3 could be on.

15. Very very cool.

Of course, it won't change anything for me, as the AAR/liberal radio affiliate airs local programing until 9am.

Still, glad to see that she's being given a more prominent role- she rocks!
