MSNBC is a network of bastards.
Edited on Tue Sep-02-08 02:31 PM by Dangerman
They don't want Keith to be at the RNC and instead they got right-wing nutjobs running the broadcast!

I hate MSNBC! :mad:

14. I don't think MS-NBC is all that bad
sure - there are the usual reich-wingers. But all-in-all - nowhere near FOX.

22. So Fox is now the yardstick?
No wonder Amnerican is in such a sorry shape.

5. Are any of the rest of them any better.....
discounting c-span, of course, since there are no talking heads on c-span during the speeches.

10. I doubt it -
I usually watch MS-NBC.

If I want an unbiased reporting, I will go to BBC.

24. Even the evening guy on BBCA seems to have a slight
anti-obama bias, but that could just me wanting everything about our candidate to be positive.

25. Well, it can't all be positive
Or else it would resemble Chinese and North Korean media, and I certainly hope none of us want that. I'd rather our candidates in both parties take their drubbings in the media than have media so tightly controlled no one can criticize a political individual.

A little friction for us is fine, when everything is perfectly smooth you know something is amiss.

20. I was going to post that, but
as I was getting ready to, he did, but only briefly and as a question to David Gregory and how it would impact the convention. No comment at all.

6. RWers Pat Buchanan and Intern Killer Scarborough cover DNC, but Keith is too partisan to cover RNC?
Oh well - GENBC has once again fully reared its ugly fascist head for yet another election.

23. I actually heard Olbermann
was pissed because MSNBC wouldn't give him security, apparently he was concerned he would be assassinated.
