Vittert will continue to anchor On Balance with Leland Vittert at 7 Pm Et, with the show moving to a new studio in Washington.

Chris Matthews was a surprise guest commentator Thursday on “Morning Joe,” and despite analysis of Donald Trump that some viewers appreciated, many more took to social media to decry the move from MSNBC as a faulty rehabilitation effort.
“Get that serial harasser and his s— eating grin off my TV,” one viewer wrote.
The morning news program previewed early Thursday that the embattled former “Hardball With Chris Matthews” host would be a guest. Dialing into the program, Matthews is shown in the clip below discussing the growing legal case against former President Donald Trump.

John Reiss is moving from his role as executive producer of Meet the Press to NBC News Now’s seasonal, single-topic show Meet the Press Reports, and he will be succeeded at the Sunday broadcast by David P. Gelles, who is returning to the network after nearly a decade at CNN.
Reiss has been EP of Meet the Press for the past eight years, and will shift to the streaming series that he and Chuck Todd, the moderator of Meet the Press and NBC News political director, launched in 2020. The series will enter its fifth season this fall, with each season running six to eight episodes.
Gelles, who joins the network on Sept. 1, most recently worked for CNN+, where he led the creation of four shows, Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace, The Newscast with Wolf Blitzer, The Source with Kasie Hunt, and Jake Tapper’s Book Club.

As most of us Whovians and ComicMixers know, BBC America became the All Doctor Who All The Wibbly Wobbly Timey Winey Stuff network this past week in honor of the premiere of Season 9 – which, as I write this, airs tonight, Saturday, September 19. So I pretty much kept my TV tuned to channel 101 (the BBC America station on my cable system), except for some episodes of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Hardball with Chris Matthews – oh, and the first half-hour of the Repugnantican debate on CNN, of which the less I have to say about that sorry affair the better, except that it disgusted me, and I returned to the All Doctor Who All The Wibbly Wobbly Timey Winey Stuff with relief.
So here’s a rundown of my opinions of random episodes in the lives of the Doctor.

Review Andrew Blair 14 Oct 2013 - 10:26
Andrew checks William Hartnell's final story, newly released and restored, The Tenth Planet...
This review contains spoilers.
The Tenth Planet, Mondas, is a vampire. So are its inhabitants. This vaguely supernatural aspect of the Cybermen is promptly never mentioned again. Author Dr. Kit Pedler – co-creator of Doomwatch – had begun Doctor Who's glorious tradition of turning scientific theories into fantasy yarns, the pseudo-science in the background just as motivated by narrative necessity as before.
Compared with the titular entity, there's a lot that's grounded about the final First Doctor story. Set on an Antarctic Base in the distant future of 1986, the space programme is in full swing, and it's a multi-national organisation (courtesy of the script and good casting decisions by director Derek Martinus). Sexually frustrated men of all creeds and colours gather to supervise routine probe flights. It's like a British version...

To celebrate the release of the classic horror Scream and Scream Again on May 27th, we are offering you the chance to win one of three copies of the DVD.
Police are called in to investigate a series of brutal murders. At first they believe the deaths are unrelated, until pathologist David Sorel (Christopher Matthews) performs a post-mortem revealing that each body has been sucked dry of blood, giving the appearance of the work of vampires.
Ordered by a government official to destroy the evidence, the police drop the case. But Sorel refuses to stop looking into the mystery. In an attempt to capture the crazed killer he is led to the mysterious mansion of Dr. Browning (Vincent Price), where he finds a secret operating theatre; a workshop for the creation of super humans out of limbs and organs from living bodies.

Where would a horror movie be without a classic death scene – or two? We’ve had some great ones over the years: Janet Leigh’s shower to end all showers in Psycho (1960); the ill fated nude swim in Jaws (1975); David Warner’s famous decapitation in The Omen (1976); John Hurt’s serious indigestion problem in Alien (1979); and the exploding head in Scanners (1980). And let’s not forget the gruesome ends that befell pre-stardom Kevin Bacon and Johnny Depp.
Hang on a minute! I’ve just mentioned all the classic ones! Well let’s face it, so much has been written and discussed about those famous demises, they’ve been pretty much done to death (sorry!). Therefore, the following ten are horror-related deaths that deserve some kind of classic status, a couple of which are notable for their surreal and ambiguous nature.But beware...since most of the best death scenes are...

Lots of ruminating this week. Mostly political. Mostly causing me to make sure my passport is up-to-date and to wonder what the hell country I can move to if the Repugnanticans – my term for what passes as the Republican Party these days – actually win the Presidency.
This past Thursday, November 17th, marked the two-month anniversary of the start of Occupy Wall Street. Some smart mouth caller to the Tom Hartman show pointed out that the prefix “anni” comes from the Latin anno, which means “year,” so November 17th couldn’t be the “two month anniversary.” Why did I think while listening to this jackass that he was a front for the Koch-funded Americans for Prosperity or Karl Rove’s American Crossroads? So just call it an observance, a tribute, a celebration, or a commemoration, asshole.

Torchwood has added Buffy the Vampire Slayer producer Kelly Manners to the team. Meanwhile, Eve Myles has rented a 1960s home in Hollywood, right under the sign to call home while filming the new season. But the good news is that she’s promised not to stay.
Gregg Araki’s omnisexual Kaboom is coming to IFC in January, giving you your chance to see Thomas Dekker get his bisexual on. Or that’s what the marketing print says, even if the press photos are pretty heterosexual.
The real David Karofsky is neither a bully nor a closet case, but he did go to school with Brad Falchuk, the co-creator of Glee. It seems that Falchuk names most characters he creates after people in his past. On Glee alone there’s Karofsky, Rachel Berry, and Puck is based on Noah “Zuck” Zuckerman. But nobody’s mad about it.

So, you may have recently read some of my other work on the site (Fangoria Musick), and wondered what the hell I’m doing here, amongst other things. I’d like to address that by taking a moment to drop all the masks, pretenses, and gimmicks. Even more so, I’d like to give you a glimpse of the fan beneath the fiction. This is the real Ben, not Benny Hell, speaking, and it’s with hat in hand that I write this for you today. Let me tell you a little about myself.
I grew up in Chicago during the 1980’s. I was a lot like most kids -I played in the sun, became horrendously enamored with all things He-Man, Transformers, and Star Wars, thought Andre Dawson of the Cubs was the greatest baseball player ever --and loved riding my bike in the busy streets around my Logan Square home.
