'Chris Matthews' Turns 5

摘要

Chris Matthews' syndicated political talk show has its fifth anniversary next month. His MSNBC program Hardball may get more buzz, but The Chris Matthews Show, from NBC Universal Domestic Television Distribution, is a force as well. During the week ended Aug. 13, Matthews averaged a 2.0 household rating. That trails Meet the Press (2.6) but is even with Face The Nation and bests This Week (1.6). Matthews spoke with B&C's Ben Grossman about competing with Russert, rooting for Comic, and picking fights with Cheney.
