I needed that.
I had to go to school on that one to gain street cred around here and keep it real.

A temporary replacement and a successor are two entirely different things.

Jones has no degree past high school. He’s basically sent on the streets to talk to people. The 8-9 time slot is Fox’s premier hour. Bet this pisses Jesse Watters off. But Jones fits the slot well. He’s black, not to smart and will do what he’s told.

Corporate pandering continues.

I wonder how reporters and anchors at network headquarters, and in Fox local newsrooms around the country — who have been doing stellar work for 15, 20, or more years — feel about the sudden elevation of a guy who was peddling his bike to junior high when they were on the beat reporting actual news stories and anchoring newscasts.

It’s an old junior high school stunt. They are trying to convince people that they are not connected because they don’t know Lawrence Jones. Myself? Never heard of him.

He isn’t and he won’t. He is an Obama voter who calls himself a libertarian.

He used to work for Glenn Beck quite a while ago. I think. I could be wrong.

P.S. Who is he?

He’s pretty decent actually, but as I put it the other day: I don’t have cable. I would occasionally watch Tucker on big news days via livestreams. People would livestream his program on YouTube, probably illegally. It takes some effort to search and find a livestream because the people who do it don’t do it for long. I assume they are going for subscribers and monetization (ads). It doesn’t turn out well for them, or they get booted. Thus, there isn’t anything consistent to turn to. Jones, while decent, isn’t worth the effort to track down a livestream. Just call that a lack of motivation on my part. I have other things to do with my time.

IMHO he’s a weak replacement.

Until all Affirmative Action is banished, every person who gets hired like this will have to disprove the label.

If they do, fine, I am good with that.

But until Affirmative Action is gone, it will be the first phrase out of my mouth sight unseen.
