Tuesday night was just one big bucket of breaking media news, what with NBC news anchor Brian Williams getting suspended without pay for six months, effective immediately, and Jon Stewart announcing that he is leaving the Daily Show forever, effective eventually. Brian Williams has got to be feeling pretty darn lucky about the timing -- Maddow leads with his suspension, of course, but what people will be talking about is Stewart's departure. In fact, following her own show, Maddow went over to Lawrence O'Donnell's studio and sat in on the panel discussing the changes -- the Williams announcement got five or ten minutes, and the Stewart news took up the rest of the program.

Three videos = three ads. If ratings don&#039;t improve, it will be five videos, then ten, then ...
Jessica Williams is great. The love child of Brian Williams and Pete Williams, I assume.
