Find two college students majoring in production, a well-lit room, and set up a YouTube channel.

College students can keep the production values high.

Yes it is.
MSNBC is all we have and it is about as progressive as the reality show is real

I want liberal voices on as many YouTube as possible, since the MSM...ie CNN, MSNBC...et all will not show these segments
