The guy who's currently hosting on MSNBC -- do you know who he is?

I've always liked him and he got zillions of bonus points by opening on a positive note about the demonstrations, not with a note of, I don't know, little negative notes tossed in as Andrea and Tamron did.

Thanks.

1. They've been having Tom Roberts at this time, I think that's him

But all those generic white guys look alike to me.

2. Haha -- yeah he does look like Central Casting's "anchor". He's always pleasant

seems to know what he's talking about and doesn't seem to slip into the "but are you afraid of violence???????????" type of questions.

Thanks! :hi:

6. I remember his name since it is the same as hubby's ancestor n/t

3. Was once on CNN and let go.

If I recall correctly he is gay. (Not that there's anything wrong with that.)

9. Yeah, Inna just posted a link to an article in the Advocate and he's the cover guy. nt

4. Thomas Roberts...

he used to be a local anchor at my local station - WAVY TV in Norfolk, VA about 10 years ago. He is a decent anchor and does not seem to have a political agenda, like so many other so called "reporters."

7. I'm glad to see he's made the 'big time'. Seems like a really nice guy, too. nt
