Glad Cenk is out of there. "Access focused" indeed.

I can't believe they hired that Fox "news" hack.

3. Should they filter out anybody without proper liberal credentials?
Like FOX does with conservatives?

4. I would prefer to listen to Pat Buchannan or Ann Coulter
Point taken. The guy is a snake though.

5. And the Washington Wizards was a good basketball team.
But their job was to play against the World-Famous Harlem Globetrotters!

It's like pro wrestling, you need villains. MSNBC has to put a credible opposition onto the field. Buchanan is a legitimate political All-Star, his encounters with Rachel boosted her career. Michael Steele has creds, is telegenic, and is funny in a goofy sort of way, a great addition.

I'm not a great fan of Major Garrett but I think he chose journalism over FOX. He was a "liberal" there. I don't know what he has to add except playing that opposition role to provide "balance."

10. That's what I see when he is on the screen.
Think of a dummy that needs no ventriloquist.

12. Yikes! should have seen that. I'll try to correct but I think it's too late.

On edit: Too late -- my apologies to the Wizards, the Generals, Washington and all of DU.
