If you're a TYT fan I'm asking you to do 3 simple things:

1)-Email XM Radio at talkprogramming@xmradio.com and tell them you want The Young Turks back in the morning drive slot (they're being demoted to weekends).

2)-Visit this and leave a comment insisting that they add Cenk Uygur/TYT/The Young Turks. It's FREE and takes 30 seconds.

And then send an e-mail to TVNewser asking them to add TYT to the poll: tvnewser@mediabistro.com

3)- In This DU Poll.

1. Already did 1 and 3, but I gotta vote for Sam Seder on that MSNBC slot
Don't get me wrong -- I'd be ecstatic if Cenk got it, but I think Sam is a better choice.

5. I saw that, and I reject and denounce you.
I actually like Sam, but I know Cenk is the better choice.

2. Voted on 10pm Slot .. WHY is Lou Dobbs on the list ..
Dobbs is nothing but a right-winger who bashes Obama and says all in one breath, I'm not a republican.
Really?
Hey Dobbs .. You may "claim" to not be a repukelicon, but you sure do SOUND like a repukelicon.

6. That's not a bad choice, even though I'm personally not a fan of his show.
But I'm able to separate what I personally like with what I think would do well. In the case of Ed Schultz, I think he does a good job of reaching out to moderate Democrats and Republicans without complicating things too much (he's pretty general IMO), especially red state types who enjoy huntin' and fishin' and Ed's accent and way of speaking.

Again, while that holds very little appeal to me personally, I think he's a valuable voice and I'm glad he's out there doing his thing.

9. Schultz's appeal ... I think he can turnaround the dumb rednecks ..
He probably reminds them of limpbrain, eventho' Schultz is NO limpbrain!
Plus, he's SERIOUS. He's not a comedian.
Hannity, Limpbrain, Savage and the rest are successful because they present their message in a serious way.
I'd never want "comedians" ... who can't deliver with the same impact.
Steph Miller, Maddow, Mark Maron ... too silly.
Politics is SERIOUS. This is no time to be "silly".
Silliness just lessons the impact and the message for those who need to be turned around.
I know a lot of dumb right-wingers, who've watched Maddow and Olbermann, and they just "don't get it".
Back to Hannity they go!
Schultz will spoon-feed the morons until ... they "get it".

10. Congress could stop this as easily as it was put into place. Freeze the assets from the first
Edited on Sat Jan-31-09 03:22 PM by 20score
bailout so the second 350 billion is not distributed. Use anti-trust laws to break up the banks that are 'too big to fail' put in an blanket oversight law to make sure all federal money over a certain amount is spent in the public's interest. Appoint an ombudsman from the GAO to carry out the oversight.

And if we don't do things along this line, the financial CEO's are right. We're suckers and they can take anything they want with impunity.

And K&R
