Watch MSNBC ignore the Rick Sanchez epsisode..

[SoCalDem]

I have a feeling that if he was a Fox guy who said it, CNN & MSNBC would have been all over it..but CNN's veneer still has a little bit of shine to it, so I'm betting it will be ignored...unless someone brings it up on Morning Aide Killer.

1. I doubt it

Keith has gone after CNN before.

2. Keith tweeted it, so I suspect he'll mention it.

14. Apparrently.... a hit and run.... "or" an errand boy, sent by a grocery

4. Wonder what MSNBC would say if Shuster went to CNN....n/t

[SoCalDem]

7. Shuster? who is this Shuster?

MSNBC pretends he never existed.. he is dead-to-them.. They are probably Conaning him & holding him hostage to a contract so he cannot work anywhere else..they want to pretend he's gone.

5. It's featured quite prominently on their website

6. I don't know... Sanchez and Olberman had been going at it...

Rick Sanchez and Keith Olbermann traded jabs Thursday after Sanchez said that Olbermann, Rachel Maddow and MSNBC as a whole were cheerleaders for the White House.

During a segment on "Rick's List," Sanchez said that "MSNBC is to Barack Obama what Fox was to Bush and Cheney," and went on to read Deputy Press Secretary Bill Burton's comments that Olbermann and Maddow provide an "invaluable service" by prodding the White House from the left. To Sanchez, this was more evidence of partisan journalism:

Pushing and prodding progressive values is an invaluable service? What if as an American I don't agree with all progressive values, Mr. President? And by the way, since when is news supposed to have a limited point of view, only progressive?...Look, from what I can tell, I wasn't necessarily liked by the Bush White House. And I don't think I'm particularly liked by the Obama White House as well. And you know what? That's the way I like it.

9. A bit full of himself don't you think?

I doubt if either the bush WH or the Obama WH even knew who this douchebag was.

And even if they did, since his audience apparently consisted of about 86 viewers, they probably din';t even bother to have an opinion of him.

Once again, some third rate twit has tried to take on the big boys and made an ass of himself in the process.

I never heard of him until yesterday. And now he is gone.

Probably turn up on fox.

11. Let's see...2 people at one network for the current pres

vs. an ENTIRE NETWORK BASED ON PROPPING UP AN OUT OF CONTROL POLITICAL PARTY. Yeah, sounds about even to me. :eyes:

12. Who is Rick Sanchez?

I know who he is, actually, but only watched him once and then only for a few minutes. I disliked him, generally.

But what's the consequence of him being fired? Was he on our side?

[Dappleganger]

13. Right now he's NOBODY.

He wasn't on anyone's side but his own.

[JI7]

15. he was on Olbermann's worst person list
