With over 15 million people unemployed, I think the time has come for a Job Search TV Channel or Job Search on VOD. Heck, I’ll take just fours hours of programming a week if that’s what is possible at the start. I whispered this idea to MSNBC’s Chris Matthews and a few others yesterday and they all loved it too.
