After the RNC, New Shows, New Names

By Chris Ariens 

So, as we searched for the parking garage where we left the rental car hours earlier in downtown St. Paul (a 15-minute search, by the way), we ran into MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow who was about to do an interview with IFC.

We’ll be doing a live chat with Maddow later this week. And she also let us know, that if you want to get a sense of what her new MSNBC show (premiering Monday at 9pmET) is going to look like, go to the Campaign Asylum channel on YouTube.

And in the cable news name game, we also learned the new title of Rick Sanchez’ afternoon show, via his Twitter. Rick Sanchez Direct premieres Monday at 3pmET.

And this begs the question: how many words in the English language are left that have not been used in the title of a cable news show?

Record? Taken.
Live? Taken.
Center? Taken.
Prime? Taken.
Factor? Uh, Taken.

Go eponymous.
