What's going on with MSNBC

when Alex Witt picks our an outlier poll to announce that Biden's job approval is down to 36% when there's a slew of recent, larger and more comprehensive polls that show his average ticking up back above 45%?

Is she trying to scare Democrats and motivate them to go vote? Or are they just enjoying the ratings that put-downs and negativity get them. I'd expect that kind of crap from CNN, but I thought MSNBC had higher standards. Even Scarborough isn't pushing the negativity.

Most polls I’ve seen put him in the low to mid 40s. Don’t know why MSNBC is pushing the outlier.

They get rid of liberal favs like Olberman, (at the time) Ed Shultz, Melissa Harris-Perry and probably more if I thought about it longer. Oh, (at the time) Chenk Yuger or however you spell it.

I see no light between the two. I’ve heard so much corporate media bs spewed on both of them I can barely stand to watch either one anymore.
