Meet The Press: Who should get the gig?

Won't happen, but I'd like to see Aaron Brown do it.

 

just for laughs?

 

Aaron Brown, heh. That'd be borderline hilarious.

 

I like his smarminess, what can I say.

 

what he said

 

I can't help this....

Rush Limbaugh?

 

I'll be very surprised if it doesn't go to Gregory.

And Aaron Brown is done. I'll be stunned if he ever gets another significant network gig.

 

I read her name as a possibility b/c her run at CBS is likely over soon, but if anyone at NBC gives any serious thought to Katie Couric, they should be fired.

 

Easy choice: Nancy Grace

 

Sirs, Madames,

In the realm of the outside-the-box:

One who has ridiculous talent and could take the show in another direction: Jeffrey Toobin. It seems like he can do anything he puts his mind to, a real all-arounder.

YD&OHS, etc

 

Calm down. That was a joke.
Russert had no true peers, so it's no wonder picking his replacement is an almost impossible task. A few out-of-the-box candidates I think might be good are Ted Koppel and Thomas Friedman.

 

Toobin's very good, but I think he lacks the wonk-factor you have to have for that show.
Another good choice would be Brian Williams.
