He’ll replace Ceynk Uygur at 6 p.m. Sharpton has been subbing for Uygur for three weeks already and has done well with older viewers.

What SNL skit, firedup? The only time I watched Cenk was in the Pol Vids section of another web site. Between the "ummms" and the frat boy delivery, I never got his appeal. He sounded like a moderately intelligent 8th grader.

A while ago I posted that Cenk's interview style reminds me of a running skit Chris Farley had. He would do really bad interviews with guest hosts.

That was DAMN funny. I never saw Cenk do an interview but the idea that it would be this painful doesn't seem that farfetched to me.
The ones you are noticing are more terrified than anything else. They are lashing out because they are comfortable; and to acknowledge what is happening is a threat to that comfort. Ignore them, for they are not the voices that will rise in the coming days, months and years. They are not the voices of our collected humanity. They are the old voices of fear and impotence. - Anonymous
Wow, what a leap from the little NY a.m. show he used to do on Sunday mornings. Credit where credit is due -- when Sharpton first appeared on the scene some 25 years ago or so -- I wasn't impressed to say the least. But... I couldn't help but notice that, as happens with many of us over the years... we are not who we were 25 years ago... some of us, even if we don't realize it, grow up in our views.... looking forward to his show!
