Temporary Host Named for Meet the Press
The New York Daily News reported that NBC has named Tom Brokaw as the temporary host/moderator of "Meet the Press" until the November elections when a new and permanent moderator is selected. All I can say is, thank you NBC, for not selecting loudmouth Chris Matthews from MSNBC's "Hardball" to fill the role, because you would've lost a regular viewer if you had. If I could add my two cents, Brian Williams did a decent job sitting in this past week. He came across as fair and unbiased and I think he would be a good candidate for the permanent position. Though I must say, that the show just wasn't the same without Russert.
