Personally this breaks my heart, because Tucker and I have become friends after frequent visits to Crossfire. Say what you want about him but he's a nice guy, take it from me.
MSNBC & Tucker, Sitting In A Tree...
As I cautioned yesterday, MSNBC hasn't signed a deal with Tucker Carlson, yet. This is the awkward stage in the relationship where the future couple is "just friends." One of Wonkette's operatives says that "it's not a done deal just yet, and that it may amount to more of a negotiating tactic than anything else." Negotiating tactic? Let's all wait for the announcement in early January...
> Also: "There's talk that conservative CNN Crossfire co-host Tucker Carlson could replace Norville in the time slot," USA Today's Peter Johnson says. And the NY Post picks up on yesterday's scoop.
> As for Crossfire: Tucker Carlson hasn't even signed a deal with MSNBC yet, but the speculation regarding who could replace him on Crossfire is already heating up. On The Corner, Jonah Goldberg says he used to think it would be a great job, "but A) I don't like the shout-show format very much anymore and B) I really, really, don't like hosting in such a format." Along the way, he describes the sort of show that could cut above the fray of political shouting -- and it's the sort of show I hope MSNBC premieres at 9pm..
