Alan Keyes Is Making Sense was a short-lived news talk show on MSNBC hosted by conservative commentator Alan Keyes. It ran for 23 weeks in the first half of 2002. It did not air on some dates because of the 2002 State of the Union Address and coverage of Robert Blake's arrest.
Guests included former (now current) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu,[1] Pat Buchanan, Alan Dershowitz, Dr. Laura Schlessinger, Chris Tucker,[2] Mona Charen,[3] Neal Horsley,[4] Ali Abunimah,[5] Bernard Goldberg,[6] Rich Lowry, and then-Jerusalem Mayor Ehud Olmert.[7]
The show's cancellation led to an ongoing boycott of the network by 78,137 people, sponsored by the Jewish education group Mesora.org.[8]
In the weeks following the cancellation, the Israeli government presented Keyes with an award for his integrity in journalism. This marked the only time the award had ever been presented.[9]
