I was very sad to find out yesterday that MSNBC‘s television show Connected Coast to Coast with Ron Reagan (and this annoying conservative named Monica Crowley) is being canceled. The network is adding Rita Cosby (who used to have a show on FOX News of all places) to the lineup and Reagan is getting bumped. (Personally, I was hoping The Abrams Report would get booted — all the show does is sensationalize court cases.)

In my anger and sadness, I sent off an email to the Connected producers. You can too at connected@msnbc.com.

Here is my email:

Subject: where is connected going?

i just saw that there is a new lineup starting on monday and was sad to see that connected coast to coast is no longer scheduled for the afternoons.

is the show totally going away? what will happen to ron reagan? it was nice to have a liberal commentator for a change (matthews isn’t much of a liberal anymore, and olberman is more straight-news than commentary).

also, being from seattle it was cool to see someone from the pacific northwest with a show (since it seems everyone else is from the east coast or los angeles).

is there any chance getting connected back?

I’m not sure that my email was effective as it could have been, or that I necessarily contacted the appropriate people — maybe this is something I can investigate more, later. All I know is that I truly and sad that Reagan is being “disconnected.”
