The TV talking head and former right side of CNN's political cluster#*$&
Crossfire has passed away.
Robert Novak died Tuesday morning at the age of 78 from his bout with brain cancer.
The right-wing pundit was a journalist first as evidenced by his long stint in the ink stained world of newspaper reporting from his days as an Illinois sports stringer to his columns for the
Chicago Sun-Times. But he's probably best remembered by audiences' eyeballs for his work as a TV pundit and

Tucker Carlson has been ousted from his MSNBC show. Carlson's one-hour talk show, called

Tucker, it's hard to fathom how switching Carlson for Gregory is going to increase the discourse.

Will Tucker sport a bowtie? What if he ends up being a really hot dancer? Will he and Paul Begala re-unite as surprise dance partners? You got me good, ABC. You got me real good.
Gosh. I really can't believe this. It's like Carlson

Good Morning America before this really sinks in.

Have you seen those promos for
dick Tucker Carlson's new MSNBC show,
The Situation? It looks a lot like the ESPN show
Pardon The Interruption. That's the first thing I thought of when I saw the commercial for it the other night. It looks like Carlson is going from one show where everyone yells at each other (
Crossfire on CNN) to a show where it looks like they'll yell at each other even more.
