I just received my Comcast bill...no concerts I didn't attend in Mansfield YET...
and there it was: NO MSNBC AFTER JULY 15TH!
Aside from channels 2 and 44 when they're not in begathon mode
(and shouldn't the call letters for channel 2 stand for 
"we've gone bonkers her" rather than Great Blue Hill during pledge drives?) the 
TV channel I watch most is MSNBC, especially Keith Olbermann, who makes
me laugh out loud more than Jon Stewart and Stephen Cobert do most nights.
I can't write another letter to the Globe so soon after having one published,
but I will try to call a talk show about this or send an email to one of
the media columnists at the Globe or Herald.
