News You Can't Use: A Skewed Look at Modern America's Life and Times
Willie Geist has a front-row seat to the news every morning on his show Way Too Early with Willie Geist and on Morning Joe, a program The New York Times called one of the ten best on television. Sitting at the crossroads of D.C. politics and New York media, Willie sits face-to-face with the country's biggest newsmakers, adding his biting satirical take to the national conversation. A rising star and the youngest host in all of network news, Willie was recently compared to a young Dick Cavett by The Village Voice. Willie's presentation is at once a hilarious, topical commentary on our culture and a more sober look toward the future of his own business.
