Rusty Muck 4390 Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 With all due respect to the good people in Alabama (and no respect for the lousy people), I refuse to let any one state speak for an entire nation, but I get your point. I just don't know that that's the best measure of our national mood. The distrust between Democrats and Republicans has become so immense, said state issue has become a national issue, as will be the ramifications of that election. The winning side will find a way to make it a measure of the national zeitgeist, regardless of how appropriate (or not) it is. And no, I have no trust in Alabamians whatsoever to do the right thing.
Daybreak 289 Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 Out of all the allegations of other Celebrities, politicians, and media personnel that have come out so far, this one hurt me the most. Charlie Rose was someone I respected. I’m so conflicted and confused right now at this. It just really break my heart
Eat News 4745 Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 "Mick Jagger Groped Me 50 years ago...he should lose his job ."
mountainave 606 Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 "Mick Jagger Groped Me 50 years ago...he should lose his job ." What's your point? Because Charlie's actions didn't happen yesterday, they shouldn't matter? Or do you just think sexual assault is funny? To get back on track, I think the last 24 hours should be a case study in how to handle a situation like this. Swift action from CBS followed by frank, honest coverage confronting the issue.

Swift action from CBS followed by frank, honest coverage confronting the issue. The media is feeding a hysteria, but now the media is being eaten by "it's own"... I think it's funny as hell. Every single one is getting the same "justice" they have passed out to others.... Like I said last year.... "Rodger Ailes is only the beginning.." Yup... I'm cracking up!
Eat News 4745 Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 Is Oprah the new Rose? The Post says CBS is hoping on Oprah to... https://pagesix.com/2017/11/21/cbs-this-morning-is-begging-oprah-to-fill-in-for-charlie-rose/
Rusty Muck 4390 Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 Oprah doesn’t need the job. But I would have said the same thing about Gayle and Charlie when CTN launched. Both of them were already highly successful and didn’t need it.
Georgie56 3318 Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 Vladimir Duthiers is the first fill-in for Charlie Rose.
mre29 1552 Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 Vladimir Duthiers is the first fill-in for Charlie Rose. I wouldn't call him the first fill-in for Rose. That implies that Rose is coming back, which he's not. Perhaps we can say that Duthiers is the first of the guest co-hosts, instead.

mountainave 606 Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 It's tough to think of who CBS might call upon to help preserve the show's forward momentum. A well-respected journalist who can banter, too, seemed to really work. If I were CBS brass, I'd be knocking on Chris Cuomo's door. Serious and seasoned journalist with a sense of humor, too. Has built name recognition and morning show experience on CNN and at GMA. I would hope that, given Charlie's age, CBS brass might have given some previous thought to who they'd turn to. But, never know. Regardless of who it is, it will simply be a different dynamic.

mountainave 606 Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 ...and stiff as a board to boot. Never seems comfortable when I watch him on New Day. I admittedly don't watch New Day often, so it's been a while since I've seen his style. If that's the case, maybe he'd do better with different co-talent.
mountainave 606 Posted November 23, 2017 Posted November 23, 2017 Erica Hill ripped Charlie a new one on her show. Without mentioning his name, she recalls how, when they were coanchors, he told her that she could only speak when he pointed to her. http://www.stltoday.com/news/national/erica-hill-staying-silent-no-longer-an-option/html_ad7ede70-ef07-54ce-9c13-375c11effccc.html
Eat News 4745 Posted November 23, 2017 Posted November 23, 2017 Let's also thank Charlie on behalf of all those people now out of work during the holidays. I'm sure all the employees of the production company are grateful to the women who waited all this time to report Mr. Rose...the other women who had nothing to do with the misconduct are grateful also. Scorched earth. Happy Thanksgiving.
Jase 1065 Posted November 23, 2017 Posted November 23, 2017 Ali Velshi and Stephanie Ruhle I would vote no to both. They are better off staying at MSNBC. I think the role at CBS This Morning requires someone who is, aside from having excellent journalistic skills, both objective and level-headed. Neither of these two fit that bill imo.
Colortini 76 Posted November 23, 2017 Posted November 23, 2017 If Anthony Mason isn’t offered the job, I’d say Harry Smith. I’m not sure how much longer he has on his NBC contract but he’s a familiar and trusted face and has been an important part of CBS This Morning since the late 80s. I know most would argue been there, done that...they’ll never be #1 with Harry, etc but he’s solid and completely under utilized on NBC.
WAVY 10 Fan 233 Posted November 23, 2017 Posted November 23, 2017 Saw on FOX News and Deadline that it appears Charlie Rose played a major role in running Josh Elliott out at CBS http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2017/11/22/charlie-rose-got-potential-heir-josh-elliott-ousted-from-cbs.html

Didn't stop progressive Alex Wagner from being an anchor on CTM: Saturday.
nynewslover 277 Posted November 23, 2017 Posted November 23, 2017 Not for nothing but I'd like to see Maurice Dubois from WCBS get the spot.. he's more than prooved himself and would be a great fit for the format.
FiveNews 378 Posted November 23, 2017 Posted November 23, 2017 TJ Holmes. He was formerly at CNN for many years. Currently at ABC/Good Morning America. A young face that has proven himself versatile on many levels.
Jase 1065 Posted November 23, 2017 Posted November 23, 2017 Didn't stop progressive Alex Wagner from being an anchor on CTM: Saturday. Her 'voice' has never carried much weight. She was a very small fish at MSNBC and is likely a non-factor at CBS. Has she ever filled in during the week? I completely forgot she was on the weekend show.
USNewsie 50 Posted November 23, 2017 Posted November 23, 2017 Her 'voice' has never carried much weight. She was a very small fish at MSNBC and is likely a non-factor at CBS. Has she ever filled in during the week? I completely forgot she was on the weekend show. She filled in this morning.
