Anyone who tried to get Sarah Palin in as VP should not be commenting!

CNN has a much better panel going!

MSNBC has been terrible since KO was forced off. The day the Convention is over, I'm cutting off Rachael and the Slicky Boys.

CNN has been crushing the Trump surrogates. Racist is as racist does.

While MSNBC seems to be on 'equal time.'

In general, I've been moving away from MSNBC. I used to watch it exclusively.

I have never done the switch...felt like I didn't have a choice. Even Rachel acts weird, and I can't take that.

I used to like Hillary when she was our first lady. Now I have very little respect for her. I could have even managed be glad that we finally have a female president if she wins. Unfortunately, the low road she has taken in campaigning against Bernie will probably make it impossible for me to ever respect her again even as I hold my nose and vote for her in November.

No more Keith. No more Reverend. No more Big Ed. No more Cenk. No more Martin. No more Melissa. And from before the Iraq War - no more Phil. What a giant shit-show. Remember, any time there is a problem within an organization, it is always the fault of management. The management (Comcast) has stifled any voices from the left and now we get to see Hugh Hewitt. From the pedia:

In February 2016 Hewitt wrote that, despite being publicly insulted by him, he would support Donald Trump should he become the GOP nominee for President.[19] Among the six reasons Hewitt would support Trump over Clinton, Hewitt singled out Trump's daughter Ivanka for having an "extraordinary intellect" and for having a Svengali-like influence over her father.

Such a keen intellect and such insight! Can't imagine why he hasn't been an MSNBC mainstay until now?

Que WTF MSNBC???

Had to leave US media though. US tv is mostly rubbish anyway, look at the ads to see who is still (barely) tuned in.

Went between CNN and Al Jazeera till they petered out. They are completely unwatchable anymore.
