53. I think Keith is stuck between a rock and a hard place here.
Edited on Fri Mar-13-09 10:34 PM by Berry Cool
He's actually gone further so far criticizing Cramer on his show than he ever has criticizing any of his NBC family stablemates before--he's done it twice--and he may be getting heat from the network. I'd still think, though, that if anyone at MSNBC could get away with talking about the Jon Stewart dressdown, he could.

Updated to add: Ah, so the story is, the MSNBC PRODUCERS were asked not to cover this. Interesting.

So this is the first time Keith has had to deal with a "story my producers are forcing me NOT to cover."

Chances are, if he wanted to cover it and they went along with him, they'd be fired. HE wouldn't be, but THEY would be.

Crappy situation.
