A review of The Situation…

CJR Online has made an appraisal of The Situation. (hat tip: TVNewser)

I personally think it’s way too early to be judging the show. O’Reilly to0k a couple of years to really start getting traction on FOX. In fact O’Reilly’s show (originally called “The O’Reilly Report” I believe) was one of three FOX solo host shows that started at its debut. The other two were hosted by Catherine Crier and Mike….uh…drat forgot his last name (he used to anchor ABC’s World News This Morning before coming to FOX and left TV to run for office). Anyways, only O’Reilly is still around now.

PSA Time….

This really doesn’t have anything to do with Cable News but as it affected me (and I thought I just had a bad DirecTV box) I thought any TiVo and ReplayTV users out there who are DirecTV subscribers might be interested in this unfortunate happenstance.

End of Public Service Announcement…
