Going off the air will be "Rita Cosby: Live & Direct,"

Har!

"This was not a decision driven as much by the ratings for 'Live & Direct' as much as it was the ratings of tape programming and the desire to have that balanced over the network," Abrams said Thursday night. Cosby won't have a regular show but will be what the network calls primary anchor of "MSNBC Investigates" as well as have her own "Rita Cosby Specials" unit. "This will actually enhance Rita's visibility throughout the network," Abrams said.

Sure, Dan.

I have always had a crush on Dan Abrams... Is he going to be on at all? Or just working in the back?

Awwwww, breathy, throaty, ever-excited Rita is a goner. Maybe she can get a cooking show on the food channel.

Such a tragedy, really. She's very attractive, but her voice drives me up the wall.

Yes it does.

Can you imagine having to listen to Eleanor Clift for any prolonged period of time?

Ugh!

My favorite is Megyn Kendall. She's pretty and very intelligently concise and has a pleasant voice and great personality. She should have her own show. She's a pro. (jmo)
