Turn off the light when you leave, Lou
I've seen videos of Dobbs on YouTube, with snippets from his CNN show. Here he comments on the Immigration Bill, and if you have a tendency toward hypertension, don't click that link. It's the most arrogant legislation that I've heard of in this country.
One theory is that Dobbs will move to Fox, as did Glen Beck. Beck's viewers, after his shift from the lonely Headline News, went from 400,000 to 2.6 million. Roger Ailes runs Fox News and he has a green, in the best sense of the word, thumb.
(There were some comments on the TNR blog and I tried to put in my two cents' worth and pressed the Comment button. And was led to the subscription page. Mandatory. And not only was it mandatory but I was told that my subscription would be renewed automatically at the current rate unless I called to cancel. Twenty years ago there was some decent stuff in the New Republic, around Andrew Sullivan's time. But I sensed it drifting leftward again and I cancelled. But even then it wasn't nearly this pissy, or grasping.)
Now that Dobbs has left CNN, it will be left to, in Jon Klein's, view, their core viewers. He's run off all the rest.
Thanks to Hot Air.
