No Rachel - the really funny thing is you carrying more of this Trump bullshit

[malaise]

and I have no intention of watching you giggle and carry a Trump fundraiser live on air.

A real tragedy is taking place in California while you hacks promote this crap for an election over a year away.

Goodbye. I'd rather watch Cake Boss

[virtualobserver]

1. I just record the shows and fast forward through them later

ten minutes of real content sometimes

[malaise]

2. No they can't have their cake and eat it

This is madness

[Laurian]

5. I agree. I turned it if as soon as she

started with the Trump bullshit. Damn, it's unreal how the media caters to this fool. I'm about ready to tune out MSNBC altogether. I used to basically have MSNBC on all day. Now I'm down to Chris and Rachel, but I turn it off if it's more Trump coverage on those two shows.

[malaise]

6. Same here

Can't take this non stop RW BS.

[japple]

42. It is sheer and utter madness. I haven't had a teevee connection for 3 years

and no, NPR isn't perfect and they have some faulty reporters (you know who you are), but they deliver much more bounce to the ounce than any of the networks on cable, and I have enough sense to filter out the bullshit. I do read the news online and watch clips here at DU and from other sources. You don't have to live with those crappy advertisements playing non-stop day and night, plus the slop-sided news from the cesspools of the dregs of what was once considered the media.

[babylonsister]

3. Trump advertised this as his first

major policy speech. She had to air it.

Ugh, he's such a nimrod. I just don't understand how anyone can support him, yet too many do.

[bullwinkle428]

8. He's a lying sack of shit - it's the same goddam stump speech we've all heard

at least a hundred times before! Get the hook!

[babylonsister]

12. AMEN! Policy speech my ass,

but this really solidifies the fact he's a moron. We already knew, but he's sounding ignorant.

[pinboy3niner]

23. That was't even CLOSE to a foreign policy speech

What a fucking joke!

[babylonsister]

25. So he's been proven to be a liar,

a photo op on the USS Iowa to raise money for a 'veteran's org' comprised of one person who is trying to raise funds for him. Sounds fairly disgusting to me; I hope that gets some attention.

[99th_Monkey]

34. Like Rachael didn't already know Trumps was a moron?

and The Donald has never been anything other than arrogant.

What's NEWs again? It's utterly lost on me.

That Comcast buy was the turning point, after which, they promptly
axed Big Ed for "too much Bern".

And ever since, Rachael & Chris Hayes have been playing hot potato,
alternately slipping in positive (albeit conspicuously brief) coverage of
Bernie, to 'balance' the other 85% of their airtime given to Trump.

[pinboy3niner]

11. It's sickening to hear another chickenhawk paying lip service to veterans

[babylonsister]

15. Yep, especially after so publicly bad-mouthing McCain.

Another freakin' hypocritical rethug...what a surprise.

[pinboy3niner]

19. And dissing ALL American POWs

He put anyone who was captured in his category of "losers."

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

4. She did expose what a scam this fundraiser is.

More to follow after it's over.

[think]

14. From what I've heard so far he could be toast. Looking forward to what she adds now. /n t

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

21. Apparently you and I are the only ones who heard it.

Having a fundraiser on a battleship for a one man scam artist is a big deal.

[think]

24. HUGE Even! It does sound like he's toast unless Rachel has her facts wrong. /nt

[YvonneCa]

32. Rachel is right. n/t

[jberryhill]

7. Cake Boss?

I've been finding the hidden porn on Netflix.

[malaise]

13. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

not a porn fan.

Cake Boss is making a cake for Common and John Legend - the bridge and MLK.

[pinboy3niner]

28. There's hidden porn on Netflix?

PM me RIGHT FUCKING NOW!

[jberryhill]

30. I've posted reviews of some

9. I keep wondering

if the MSNBC hosts have a say in it or if the Comcast executives (that got rid of Big Ed, etc.) are forcing them to cut to TheRump whenever he's on live.

To Rachel's credit, she and her folks did their homework on this veterans "organization" (one guy) and exposed it as a sham.

(TheRump said there are "hundreds of thousands" of members in this phony "organization.&quot

[lostnfound]

17. I think she's being forced to cover him but is making the best of it by exposing the scam

[hedda_foil]

10. Truly disgusting. Before the creep started blathering, Rachel remarked that he.hadn't run a single

[Center][Font size="60"]Ad[/center][/font]

Nobody else would run ads either with free media showing every speech and spending hours more musing on why he's doing so terrifically well.

[Retrograde]

16. Of course not - MSNBC is doing it for him

why pay money when you can people to work for you for free?

[hedda_foil]

27. That seems to be the story of his life

[TeamPooka]

18. MSNBC is tryng to be a "breaking news" station so this stuff wins. nt

[vanlassie]

22. I have it on now and they have a ridiculous bright red

banner -twenty minutes after he stopped blathering like an idiot. Looks like Fox, FFS.

[spanone]

20. K&R...

[daleanime]

26. Well, maybe not Cake Boss....

but I'm sure I can find something better. Definitely find something more useful.

[nolabear]

29. Too bad. You missed an interesting event.

The Donald only talked for a few minutes and apparently there was a sizable, voluble protest. His "policy speech" was void of any policy. I'm
glad they're paying attention and pointing out the facts that he's a blowhole.

[nadinbrzezinski]

31. You know what makes me laugh

she is not alone.

I just ran a story that is heavy on policy (and good news to boot) I got the exclusive, since the rest of the media packed it up after the SONGS testimony was over.

So no, she is not alone. You know how many hits I will get when compared to oh if it bleeds it leads, that we do run from time to time? So partly I blame the viewer at this point.

But do go enjoy cake boss, whatever the hell that is.

[stevenleser]

35. It's not the viewer's fault or the networks. He's the leading candidate for the Repug nomination

for President.

It's the Republican base's fault at this point. News services should be covering the person in the lead for nomination the two major parties. And in the case of them being nutty or some other major flaw discovered, the media should be covering it so the person can be disqualified.

This objection to Trump coverage is silly.

[nadinbrzezinski]

38. Partially.

One thing is covering...another is breaking for every speech.

Regardless, trump translates to eyes on screen. So...I actually get it. Almost the same way a bad car crash does. And I also understand why he is doing so well as well.

On edit, I just refuse to post that analysis here...or the story we just ran. Normally I would think a progressive site would be interested...alas...

[stevenleser]

43. I just hope we don't end up regretting that we didn't talk about him more.

He's currently leading all Democratic hopefuls in head to head matches.

I'm more interested in talking through making sure we can beat him than complaining about MSNBC covering him.

[nadinbrzezinski]

44. We have run analysis pieces of why he is doing that well

we are among the early media to take him (and Sanders for vastly different reasons) seriously as top ranked candidates. In fact, I know I need to write another of those pieces.

I just will not post those pieces, on either of them, here. As I said, just ran a story of a juvenile justice program that has reduced out county daily populations by 40 percent at juvenile facilities, will not post that here either. I am done with a few people essentially harassing.

Hell, the just the facts, here are the polls...nope. Won't do it either.

[malaise]

47. Policy stories are way more relevant and important

but they require real work and the corporate media love pre-packaged BS.

[nadinbrzezinski]

49. But you missed this by a mile

so does the viewer. And if you need to pay the bills...

[world wide wally]

33. Some people are saying that Trump bought MSNBC: All Trump all the time!

Just sayin'

[alcibiades_mystery]

36. Chris Hayes was crowing that they wouldn't be carrying a Trump speech instead of his show tonight

His whole damn show has been nothing but Trump speeches for weeks. I haven't watched his show since mid-summer, when this asinine programming decision was put into effect.

[jalan48]

37. I thought Rachel was the best. It's sad to see her prostitute herself like this.

[Skittles]

45. I have no doubt she is receiving orders from above

it is all Trump all the time now it seems

[CaptainTruth]

39. Tweet her @Maddow

I've been doing it a lot lately.

She kept obsessing about how Fox was going to divide the candidates for the GOP debate, while I sent her articles about how the GOP had repeatedly "hacked the vote" & changed vote totals to steal elections, & she ignored everything I sent (or at least no mention on-air).

In the end, it doesn't matter a DAMN how Fox (or anyone else) divides candidates for debates if the GOP changes vote counts & steals the election. It's focusing on something totally irrelevant while ignoring the single biggest issue of the 2016 election - GOP election theft.

#Frustrated

[Iwillnevergiveup]

40. Whew - glad to see

I'm not the only one who was disgusted with the long, never-ending schpiel on Trump. The story of the bogus vets org was right-on, but waaay over the top on today's reality show in San Diego.

malaise - thanks for posting and what channel is Cake Boss on? For future reference.
