(613 posts)[ 1 ] Who do you think is watching MSNBC? None of us liberals is convinced by Trump's cycle of lies! I seldom watch, but when I do, it's hilarious to see this buffoon try to weasel his way out of any responsibility for all the damage he has done and continues to do. And where do I find out about his idiotic misdeeds? On MSNBC! This cable network gives context to these bizarre campaign events. And let's be analytical about this. No conservatives are watching. So, what difference does it make whether MSNBC airs his lies, since they also contextualize them through their standard programming -- all day long!
[ 2 ] The "protesters" need to be televised as well. Those of us who actually watch MSNBC know exactly who these cultists are and why they are protesting. MSNBC does nothing to promote these people or their issues. It simply allows us to witness the idiocy. If MSNBC filtered the news, it would be no better than Faux "news," which broadcasts so many events out of context, and distorts reality to push its ideology. Please give MSNBC and its viewing audience some credit. Neither the network nor its regular audience are under any illusion that these protests are anything but right wing theater. I would much rather see the actual news and draw my own conclusions, rather than have MSNBC censor the news for me. I don't need that. Does any liberal need it?
