Chuck Todd is interviewing 2 reps for the "Tea Party Patriots" |

Two of them at the same time and no counter.
I don't like Chuck at all.

1. His Corportate Masters have deemed it important to only show one side. |
|
Over and over and over and over and over again.

3. He sure as hell is NOT challenging them. He simply accepts their numbers. |

If it was Rachel, Ed, or Keith, they would have been torn apart.

9. Honestly, he has the on-air personality of a wet fish. |
|
Seems to me that he flops right.

laziness wouldn't account for the 99-1 ratio of ultra-right cons to moderates & dems.

10. Well, one 'bagger alone can't present a reasonable argument |
|
hence two or more are needed.

15. Yes, better to be blind to the crap they teach others |
|
That is one reason why we lose.

You forgot the sarcasm tag.
Watching them hour after hour, day after day, and complaining about it here at DU is sooooo helpful.
The reason we lose is that some who call themselves Dems become brainwashed by listening to this shit, while others are moles who spread it around in the name of "opposition research"

20. Another reason is that we are too busy tearing one another apart |
|
Of course it's easier to be unified when the other party's only agenda is helping the rich... I disagree with you that it is useless to study their media tactics. If dems do not get that "it's the media stupid" we will continue to lose. I'm less concerned with the "moles" hear that the issue of propaganda and how much it's destroying the progressive agenda.

21. I only recently realized that msnBS is propaganda. I can totally understand why you might still |
|
think that the people that are on between the hours of 5 and 11pm (eastern) are on your side.
If you really listen to what they're saying a lot of the time, you'll see just how much they're trying to steer public opinion. I really don't want that from a news organization. And I don't think they're standing up for left-leaning or progressive interests all of the time. Sometimes. I think they're trying to make us think that they are on our side but I think more than anything they want to keep the sheep from asking too many of the right questions and distract us from important things.
Plus it's really irritating how there is practically zero news on that channel. Even fox has an hour or two of reasonably unbiased news coverage.

17. It wasn't that which bothered me so much - it was that Chucky let them say whatever they wanted |
|
without follow up questions. I had to turn it off.

19. I was watching with my father and we BOTH hate his guts! He didn't take them to task |
|
on anything! And what's more, I live and work in Washington, D.C., and the so-called Teabag rally was an abysmal failure. No one showed up to that bullshit. Chuckie should have pointed that out.

24. You liked Matthews better? Why...I think you have a background to give me an answer |
|
that would be interesting. Why would you support Matthews over Todd?
