I would like to congratulate MSNBC for two outstanding journalistic choices today:
Strongly hinting that all the lawyers in New Hampshire should be filing an emergency injunction to change whatever law allowed some idiot to be waiting at the Obama speech venue with an unconcealed handgun, and
Playing "All About the Benjamins" as the outro music after the financial report teaser.

Maddow About You*

Today's #1 article on NYTimes.com is about Rachel Maddow's crazy good ratings on her new show. Hello, I only just started watching Olbermann. Slow down, MSNBC!
But the most curious thing to me in this article was the "25-to-54" demographic. What? Hello? Are there any 54 year olds out there with the same viewing habits as the average 25 year old? Or the real reason behind ratings: how many advertisters are really aiming at both? Why the 30-year spread? Sure, my mom and I may both click over to CNN, but I doubt her regular viewing habits include rushing home for Gossip Girl or watching True Blood on demand or dedicating her Saturday to America's Best Dance Crew reruns.
*Yes, I know. Negative points for corny title. I hang my head in shame.
