What’s Hot/What’s Not: 11/13/11

What’s Hot:

MSNBC’s Conrad Murray Doc – MSNBC caught all kinds of heat this week over its Conrad Murray doc. The Jackson Estate appealed to NBC to kill it. Information came out regarding how the money flowed or didn’t flow in NBC getting the doc and the exclusive interview NBC got of Murray.

Penn State coverage – It was pretty much non-stop all week…

Cheslsea Clinton to NBC News – No word on whether she’ll appear on MSNBC. Makes no difference. The Red blogs will tie her to it nontheless…

What’s Hot:

MSNBC/NBC Universal sued by Murray Creditor – Good luck with that…you’ll need a miracle to get any money out of MSNBC or NBC Universal.

Conrad Murray verdict overkill – If you were looking for a news channel that wasn’t covering the Conrad Murray verdict…good luck. ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, CNNI, HLN, FNC, and MSNBC all covered it. No idea if the biz channels did (I’m looking in your direction FBN with your history of breaking business news coverage for non-business breaking news coverage). I flipped over the the NHL channel and hid until it was all over.

Layoffs at CNN – And just in time for the holidays too…

MSNBC = Must Not Break Crime – CNN and FNC both covered President Obama’s newsy news conference Sunday night. Alas, MSNBC couldn’t find its way to break crime tape…

DSL Modems – Specifially my old one…

Star Alliance’s Micronesia AirPass – If you live in Asia, it’s great. If you live in the US and want to risk losing your snorkel in warm tropical waters, be prepared to pay through the nose to fly to Guam via Honolulu before you can even use your AirPass.
