Long as they let me have it. But having been on the air this long, i can tell you even in these weird times, there is sort of a constant i can describe to you. One thing that has progressed steadily and without change since i have been doing this, and its this shift that has happened in the news environment in which we work. Its that our friends and colleagues in the conservative media over the years, they have become more and more their own thing. Like i said, ive been doing this for more than a decade. At the beginning of me doing this show, i think it was fair to think of our friends at the Fox News Channel and conservative talk radio and in other conservative media i think it was sort of fair at that time to think of at least most of them as our, like, legit professional rivals.

One week after that, we went from 247 to 1,574. And the month of april has just been astonishing since then. In that one week between friday, march 27th, and friday april 3rd, we went from about 1,500 americans dead to more than 7,000. By last friday, april 10, that number had more than doubled, and now since last friday we are having more than 2,000 americans
