Sen. John McCain's daughter, Meghan, has joined MSNBC as a contributor, making her first contribution at noon Monday (Nov. 21) on NOW with Alex Wagner.

5. As long as I hate her dad, I guess I'll hate her too.

MSNBC is hardly relevant anymore.

9. Here's a legitimate reason to hate her

All of which adds up to journalism experince. It's the people who wasted their time and effort on learning journalism who I really feel sorry for.

8. Alex Wagner's show was putrid this morning

Even Melissa Harris Perry was disappointing, especially on the issue of OWS. How is that a conservative like Michael Steele was the only one of five people having anything good to say about OWS?

ALEX WAGNER COMPARED THE OWS PROTESTORS TO "REACTIONARY HIPPIES" (HER EXACT WORDS) OF THE 60S. REACTIONARY HIPPIES?

11. MSNBC is trying so hard to be middle of the road that it has

outlived it's usefulness.

[russspeakeasy]

16. It was pathetic. But it will probably go on for awhile because

it shows how MSNBC is so "fair and balanced".
Olberman was all they had going, now they've got nothing.

18. But it's Republican from the first thing in the morning until Al. Tweety is so off and on, you

can't call him progressive.

MSNBC is mostly Republican NOW. Why make it worse with McCain?????

[russspeakeasy]

20. EXACTLY.....

10. Who says you can't get a good job with a bachelor's in art history?!

[rurallib]

12. Next: Barbara and Jenna - international relations reporters

when they are stumped they can ask daddy.

eta - think I will change my name to Grover Fucking Norquist Jr. and go right to the top.

13. She qualifies as "leaning forward" because of her breasts, I guess...

[Twinguard]

14. I cut my cable a year ago, so I have no skin in this game.

I no longer have MSNBC, so I could care less who they hire as contributors. Pretty much all I get from MSNBC are the clips I spot here on the intertubes.

I have heard about/read/seen some of Ms. McCain a few times over the past few years. While I seriously disagree with much of what she says, she has occasionally sounded like a reasonable person... especially on social issues like gay marriage for example. She may be a kook, but I'd like to think she has the potential to be a somewhat reasonable kook sometimes.

Whatever.

[and-justice-for-all]

15. Ah fuck!!! hell no..nt

[valerief]

17. MSNBC is going the way of Huffpo. CURRENT TV ONLY!!!! nt

21. And FSTV

Along with Rachel Maddow and Keith, Thom Hartmann's The Big Picture on FSTV is one of the few really intelligent shows.

[valerief]

23. Oh, yes! And Thom, too! And Amy Goodman. And Rachel. nt

[valerief]

19. She'll be as useful as Luke. Blech. nt

22. Well, M$NBC is becoming more and more like Fox every day.
