Dude, Ted looked Happy!

His Bush Era exile was finally OVER and he could appear on a cable tv show without looking like a defendant in a court case (witness the Sean Hannity Atack) on youtube.

And Ratigan had you on for too short a time but Ted. Your performance was very good and the plug for kickstarter is also good.


Ted please, please come by the Pashtun areas, the Baloch lands and drop by Karachi in Pakistan.


And because you said you respond to people who have accounts, here is a blog I openned up. I promise I`ll add more to it.

Good job on the appearance, may we see you smiling on TV more.

Sincerely

And yes anon @ 12:03 You Can Drop Dead.

Ratigan is the most radical of all of MSNBC's liberal left voice box pundits.

Corporate America knows it can make money of him; why would they want to amplify his voice against them?

Plus TV is where Republicans organise/receive their marching orders from.

Ted - you should find a way to get the video from the msnbc site - or some member of your fanbase should - and they should put it up. I know how to get videos from youtube and google videos. Corporately protected sites like MSNBC and Comedy Central are a little more difficult. When corporations design commercially available stuff to be unbreakable, it generally means that if you want to break through it, you'll have to turn it into a project.

So yeah - you should put your video up.

Y-S,
Sorry to rain on your parade, but Fox News has more Democrats watching then watch MSNBC.

And Pew Research has found the FNC's audience is much more balanced as well:

Their annual survey of cable news audiences now shows:

* FNC: 39% Republican, 33% Democratic, 22% Independent
* CNN: 18% Republican, 51% Democratic, 23% Independent
* MSNBC: 18% Republican, 45% Democratic, 27% Independent

Anonymous 12:03,

Your information is not really relevant. Most young people today get their news (if they watch the news at all), over the internet via their computers or their cellphones. They do NOT sit down and watch news over the TV. In my case, I read newspapers until 1998, when I switched to the internet. I've never watched TV news in my life.

Not to worry though. FOX News has captured the scared, old white racist viewership quite well.

So Susan,
All those democrats watching FNC are racist?

BTW since you don't watch FNC how do you know anything about it?

Yesterday evening in France you were in a documentary

La BD s'en va en guerre

The title roughly translates to "comics go to war", with a kind of childish spin ("children's crusade" anyone? :-) ).

Interviewed were you and others who also mix reporting and drawing (e.g. Joe Sacco of course).

I couldn't find any streaming.

It was fun forme to see you, because I generally feel I'm about the only French person to know about you. :-)
(I read you because some family spent time in the US and sought out some original comics to bring back)

How can you post comments in defense of Fox News on www.rall.com without buying and reading all of Ted Rall's books? You can start with "Wake Up, You're Liberal" unless you're some kind of hypocrite.

Spacious Specious,
I have been reading Ted since his days on KFI. Nice try though.

FNC's 3am Red Eye beat out CNN's prime time programming last week.
