Newsbusters' Greg Sheffield makes a
great point: MSNBC "talent," including Tucker Carlson, Joe Scarborough, and Keith Olbermann, are all seeking to "punch up" on FNC--that is, "punch up" to higher ratings. This punchy strategy, which Sheffield attributes to new MSNBC honcho Dan Abrams, doesn't seem to be working, but Abrams has to do something to justify his new job, right? So maybe this is worth a try--and what better "talent" to expend in this ratings-quest than Carlson?
