MSNBC's weekend stuff is worse than Fox.

MSNBC decided to spend Saturday flushing itself. Seriously thought my remote was broken and had landed me on the wrong channel. Hideous WTF programming. Even their prison crap is preferable to the "coverage" they're vomiting out today.

It seems they take one story and tell it over and over all day long. They went downhill fast when they fired Keith Olbermann. I thought Rachel was good but lately they all bore me with their interpretation of what they think news is the story du jour.

I used to be an avid MSNBC viewer.

Once Olbermann left, and that bagger bought MSNBC, it's been slowly sliding downhill towards complete baggerdom.

Their edge is dull now.
