(27,315 posts)3. Many people on the media are worse than you can imagine, and it is true of MSNBC as well
This morning, the person subbing for Tamron Hall said "There is no god but god and Mahomed is his prophet is apparently the first pillar of Islam""
Apparently ? She is not sure? What about MSNBC making sure that their anchor have some basic knowledge. And it is even worse when it is print : MSNBC had a scroll a few days ago stating that Obama had a "soar throat" due to "refulx". It took them nearly an hour to correct "soar" and they still left the second typo.
