Boo, MSNBC!

I thought MSNBC was improving and taking a more reasonable view of Cheato. I even started a couple of threads praising them a few days ago. I guess I should have known it would be short-lived. Or maybe this is their usual week-end routine. I don't watch on weekends too much.

Anyway... when describing Cheato's loss in court yesterday, Alex Witt said that trump was already responding on "lies" social as I call it, and then she LAUGHED. I'm sorry, there is nothing about this that is funny. To be honest, I would be surprised if an anchor on FAUX laughed after reading the verdict. Unbelievable.

Then they went to their correspondent. Liz someone, who recited Cheato's unhinged diatribe verbatim with NO FACT CHECKING, including when he accused Biden of being behind Carroll's civil case. Just reported it as though it were true.

No fact checking when they returned to Alex either. Oh, but she was EXTREMELY careful to fact check everything that was said about Cheato, pointing out twice that he was found liable for sexual abuse, not rape.
