Alan Keyes had a number of Arab groups complaining about him and putting the pressure on MSNBC to can him. This move was MSNBC's way out. I emailed them about these Arab Islamic groups and giving my support for Alan. So much for an individual who has a pro-Israel position on one of these networks.

He wasn't getting the ratings at night, so they were going to move him to daytime. It looks as though he quit, though:

Former presidential candidate Alan Keyes, who got a show just last January, declined to move to MSNBC's daytime lineup and will be off after July 15, the day most changes take effect.

I guess blaming Arabs and GLAAD sounds more impressive than saying he quit.
