Greta to MSNBC... Kelly to NBC.... Faux News is quickly moving to eliminate the female hosts. After all, them thar women ain't really supposed to be puttin' themselves out there. They's spose to stay barefoot, pregnant, and in the kitchen!

The right sends the female hosts packing. The GOP President-elect openly admits groping females is okay. The GOP Congress moving quickly to defund the largest provider of cancer screenings, pregnancy counseling, women's health care in the U.S. Wonder how many of those "Trumpettes" will continue waving his banner once they see women's rights moved back decades.
 
Msnbc already bringing in familiar faces. Ex CNN money and Al Jazerra guy/reporter already doing news segments. They brought back Brian Williams. As a network which is a business you can't rely or cater to a niche audience and survive.

Many purest are upset for two reasons. First a host from a more conservative network then many are complaining that the media in general is just recirculating the same old thing. In other words out with the old and in with the new. I think Msnbc had plenty of young or new talent that could've attracted a range of viewers. It's like a sports team signing a known player rather than developing their own talent.

All that being said Van Susteren has always been pretty straight forward. And she's going back to where she got her TV start. She basically made her TV fame during the OJ Trial commentating at night.
 
She is hardly the type to go with the flow if she is against something. Greta is quite seasoned and will press for answers in an interview--label her views however you wish but she may not always agree with the views of which you have labeled her. I remember her before she went to FOX. New talent can still be developed--they utilize many of them filling in slots for the regulars but it must take time. I was watching one of the crew try to extract an answer from a senator last night. He continued to tap dance around the issue. That seems to be what politicians do best. Chris Matthews is good at bringing them back. You may say he is left but often times disagrees with it and will credit those on the right if he agrees with them. I expect that Greta will be similar.
