There's no gentle way to put this, so I'm just going to come right out with it: The Rachel Maddow Show, from Rachel on down, is taking the night off. Instead, msnbc will be showing "msnbc Films: The Assassination of Dr. Tiller hosted by Rachel Maddow."
In a few minutes Kent will be publishing a special cocktail recipe, so hopefully those of you so inclined will find some solace there. We look forward to seeing everyone on Monday.
