This article from Huffington Post about MSNBC's strong ratings for its most liberal commentators (Maddow, Hayes, and Lawrence) in the face of management's determination to move the network to the right is very interesting

I spend my day turning MSNBC on and off. I can't stand Chuck Todd, and I'm gratified to know that others are having a hard time with Greta Van Susteren, too. Her ratings, apparently are miserable. What in the WORLD is wrong with Andy Lack?

(1,642 posts)Comcast, often referred to as the worst company in the world, does not need MSNBC for profits.
Rather, they see MSNBC as a means of propagating a conservative-industrial world view.
Why did they bring Brian Williams back from the dead? Because he is gleefully willing to be a parrot for their messages, like "How beautiful are our weapons ..."
