MSNBC .......whores for more Republican viewers! |
|
Don't you think they know? Don't you think they know the following?
Who conducts all of the polls and what questions they ask? Who they call for those polls, how they are selected, and how they record the responses?
Don't you think the MSNBC lineup has been screwed by GE into trying to make this look like a close race?
Don't you think we need some news source who doesn't try to color the results to get ratings?
BBC....shows that Obama is ahead in key states, with a couple in the margin of error territory, not enough to make it a win for McCain.
It's 11 PM at BBC..watch them at 6 PM Eastern on your cable system, if you get them.......they say NO WAY McCain will win.
Why can't we have honest news reporting on America TV?
At least we can pay $35 a month to get stuff like this, BBC.......honest........really straight for real facts.
MSNBC.........whore for GE.
Fixed Noise..owned by Rethuglicans
Every other network.........just so inferior.
Comments?

1. I remember when we used to get real news on all news shows. |
|
It was a long time ago. I'm pretty sure it wasn't a dream.

4. Good choice for reality |
|
But sometimes I want to hear someone summarize what all the news of the day is.
C-Span is accurate, in-depth, very wonderful, but focuses so much on DC.........when the USA is so much more than DC.

5. Let's start a movement to make MSNBC honest and direct |
|
for a change......maybe GE has to sell it off in order to maintain profits in the ratings.
But the lies and misinformation coming out of MSNBC idiot talking heads, and allowing Pat Buchanan to be on the air......just very un-American to allow him to be seen and heard on that network for the times we face now......no more racists, please.
MSNBC, try to be a LITTLE BIT like a vanguard of media, not an apologist for rich racists.

6. Oh. God. We could have only dreamed of a network like MSNBC |
|
If someone told you four years ago before the NBC leadership change that a major network would have a solid liberal - even progressive - lineup in prime-time, would you have believed it?
Get off their backs.

7. MSNBC has been around longer than that. |
|
They screw America 99% of the time, with less than honest reporting, less than full impact......they are a sports network for politics......you are too forgiving....have too low standards for what America needs in terms of honesty and full factual information on the media.
You sound like the government guy in Louisiana or Mississippi who said be glad your slave master doesn't whip you daily!
Let's see if you can have some imagination about what America deserves from her commercial on-air networks!
You really want to keep that slave master who just doesn't flog you daily?

8. I know they've been around - that wasn't my point |

They've been around since the late '90s. My point is their change in direction under new leadership has given us something we could have only dreamed about just four years ago. Now, because it's not DNC press releases around the clock - people here are bitching bitching and expecting wayyyy too much. The fact is the MSNBC primetime line-up is a Republican's bad dream.
ON EDIT: By the way, you're comparisons were downright insulting. Nobody here (except you I guess) expects MSNBC to be the Air America of television. Flogging, daily? Sheesh. Insulting. Go away.

9. IMHO, GE-TV is unwatchable during the day. |
|
For the most part, I don't even tune in until Countdown comes on, although lately I've been tuning in for the second airing of Hardball.
