OK, so maybe that’s not exactly what MSNBC president Phil Griffin said, but it’s probably what he was thinking.
MSNBC is searching for a mad dog personality to fill the open 10 p.m. time slot, which is currently occupied by a replay of Keith Olbermann’s “Countdown” program.
In fact, Griffin believes a new 10 p.m. program is a top priority. He said that the channel needed a third original show – in addition to Rachel Maddow’s and Olbermann’s — in its primetime lineup.
“We can’t let this momentum stop,” he said.
“Where the hell can I find another lunatic who looks good in a suit,” he thought.
