The whole news hour will soon be reporting on the political going ons in the here after.

Presumably they'll be replaced by Breitbart alumni.

No idea who any of these people are.

Ooooh. Alright, so judging by the Wikipedia article, this is all just part of #DrainTheSwamp.

I'd like to see HotBoxxy and Aurini take over. Also, rebrand PBS as the Pepe Broadcasting Service.

I've always maintained that a time honored English tradition be kept in requiring News Hour anchors and commentators to wear powdered wigs.

I didn't expect how sad this would make me.

Me neither. I watch Newshour every night; it's probably the only thing where I'll get upset if I miss it, in a sort of Rainman Wapner sort of way. I hadn't seen Gwen around, but they kept talking about Washington Week so I guess I assumed they were giving Hari.. I dunno how to spell his last name.. more Anchortime, like maybe Gwen was going to concentrate more on other endeavors. The shock I felt when I heard, on The Newshour no less, was about the same as when I heard that Leonard Cohen passed late last week. Except even with Cohen, I saw it coming (the new album, though fantastic, is every bit as much a living will as Bowie's Black Star or Zevon's The Wind.) I lost a friend today.
