Because you were compelled to run stock footage of wrestlers throwing chairs for your piece last night, now you have some real footage to work with. Of course, you will correct the record, right?

[Ferd Berfel]

1. MAddow sold out to protected her multimillion $ contract

dont count on her correcting anything or apologizing

[AgingAmerican]

2. She ran the stock footage because she had seen this video

And it didn't properly catapult the propaganda

[davidlynch]

4. Ya gottah....cat-a-puhlt...the..prop-a-gan-duh!!!

I can just hear it!

[HooptieWagon]

3. No. She'll continue to lie for her paycheck.

[snowy owl]

10. Nothing and no one makes me angrier than this so-called political commentator. Total propaganda.

Is it just the paycheck? I think she had a huge ego and now we've all seen it at its most out-of-control. She enjoys the subterfuge.

[davidlynch]

5. Calling all Hillary Supporters Chime In Please...

* crickets *

[JaneyVee]

8. Chime in about what? Bernie fans threw chairs, bottles, and death threats.

When are you guys gonna chime in?

[davidlynch]

9. Did you even watch the video of the chairs being thrown? n/t

[JaneyVee]

11. Youre ok with this behavior? Misogyny, death threats, harassment?

[davidlynch]

13. Your narrative just fell apart: all day it was "chairs" thrown, please comment.

Or is it just going to be deflection, distraction and spin?

[JaneyVee]

15. No, all day its been misogny, death threats, harassment.

[davidlynch]

18. Those accusations are about as believable now as this video of "chairs being thrown" n/t

[bigtree]

35. no one except sad Sanders folks are listening to this bullshit anymore

...who cares what you believe? The denial is the nail in your campaign's coffin.

[beedle]

21. You mean like when that Hillary supporter

beat up the Sander's supporter couple?

Like when that big Hillary supporter came running up to the front of the stage to aggressively confront Sanders supporters who were 'chanting'?

[snowy owl]

25. More alarmist talk. Check out what happened and you might tone it down. I hope.

I wish Clinton would ask her supporters to respect the process and be even-handed and fair. It might help.

[puffy socks]

37. Did this asshiole pick up a chair ready to throw or not?

Yes he did.


I have no idea if there are any more videos. I'm sure we'll see soon. Sanders supporters screamed profane insults throughout Saturday's convention. It wasn't just booing oh yeah, I forgot #FreepassforBerniesupporters

I know, I know its time to whittle it down and pretend its nothing because its Sanders supporters.

[davidlynch]

40. Picking up a chair and holding it over your head is not throwing it...

And the Hillary supporters have already gone on record saying that people were "throwing chairs". Notice plural. That is to say, their narrative is false.

[puffy socks]

41. He had to be talked out of throwing it.

and DWS said there were chairs thrown. I'll take her word before I take the word of the fools who keep fabricating conspiracy theories , threatening people, playing dirty politics. and lying. If there's a video from the location I hope it comes out soon.


Not only that their behavior was reprehensible regardless of chair throwing . It wasn't just booing.

Bernie's going down, and going down hard unless he pulls his head out of his soon.

[lagomorph777]

45. I would take the word of DWS

after Satan's word.

[rusty fender]

6. That was a provacative

Act of aggression. He was stopped, but it was definitely a scary action.

[Ferd Berfel]

14. What Scary? There was no throwing

The guy held the chair over his head for about 2 sec and someone took it from him and set it down - THE END.

Right wingers (not you rusty fender) are authoritarian, histrionic, frightened little children

[rusty fender]

20. Two or three people

Had to wrap their arms around him to hold him back---he definitely wanted to fight someone or break something.

This is the problem with Libertarians: when they don't get their way, they just want to break people's heads.

[Maedhros]

33. What evidence is there that he was a Libertarian?[n/t]

[Ferd Berfel]

43. NOne - Rusty was speculating or playing games

Today Hartmann has 2 eye witnesses (one of them a DNC person) on his radio show

Basically DWS is a lying sack of crap and Bernie and his supporters are being swiftboated by DWS, Camp weathervane, the Corporate media. FUck these creatures.

[Maedhros]

44. Seconded.[n/t]

[apcalc]

32. You can't be serious with that statement.

Guess what .... It is not normal to hold a chair over one's head "for even two seconds".

For what purpose if not to threaten?

To keep the rain off his head? To keep the sun iut of his eyes?

Under almost every circumstance that is threatening behavior.

[BillZBubb]

28. Oh please. Maybe if you are afraid of your shadow.

[PowerToThePeople]

7. Paid propagandist

We overthrow nations that do what we do.

[corkhead]

12. You mean she took time out from her wall to wall coverage of The Donald?

[ozone_man]

16. She lost my respect as a journalist.

Welcome to your new peers Rachel, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Chris Mathews.

[arcane1]

19. Seriously, she went to Fox's level. How disappointing.

[snowy owl]

26. No, Fox is actually better these days than MSNBC. But you don't watch so you don't know.

You really ought to check out the competition. You would sound more informed. And you would be more informed.

[ozone_man]

48. I rarely watch Fox or MSNBC, but good to know

that Rachel is actually worse than Fox. Where's a progressive to get their news these days? I like Amy Goodman and Thom Hartman myself.

[litlbilly]

49. I listen to them too, used to listen to Stephanie Miller, but, she now sounds like a Hillbot echo

chamber. Cant stomach it anymore. I cut the cable a long time ago and couldn't be happier. I hope more people would do that. It is so much better.

[snowy owl]

17. Chair-throwing causing anguish for Axelrod and Henderson on CNN. Good for Van Jones.

Wringing of hands and clicking of tongues on part of Clinton surrogates. Jones said perhaps Clinton should also have made clear that all primaries and all conventions and counts and delegates should be honest should be honest and respectful. But has she? Has even one Clinton supporter heard her utter such words? It's a small incident of deserved protest.

[cliffordu]

22. Shit. We throw more chairs at my AA meeting.

[.99center]

23. Awww they hugged him!

It almost brings a tear to my eye. Good job keeping the peace Bernie supporters!

[davidlynch]

24. Adryenn Ashley explained that Bernie Sanders supporters "hugged" the guy down...

She saw all of this and explained it all last night before that video surfaced:

https://www.facebook.com/AdryennAshley/videos

[Cheese Sandwich]

29. Maddow = paid liar. She's the liberal Sean Hannity

[BillZBubb]

34. I think shes worse. Hannity is obviously pushing propaganda.

Maddow is usually a more subtle. In her push for Hillary though, she's gone to extremes. Playing a phony video over the narrative of a story is about as low as you can get in journalism.

[Cheese Sandwich]

36. It's not obvious to his fans

Just like it's not obvious to her fans.

Not to pick too much on one person. Chris Hayes is a HUGE sell out. He's almost more disappointing because I expected better from him. His book was really good. I don't think anybody honest can survive on that channel.

[snowy owl]

39. Many RMS fans watch only MSNBC and that's not a lot of people. Few people overall watch MSNBC.

CNN is increasing its viewership but still behind Fox. And Fox is getting better while MSNBC is getting worse. But CNN still most neutral. I used to be a fan of MSNBC - addicted in fact - until this primary season. I couldn't ignore the bias - every minute of every broadcast. And I recognize juvenile mockery when I see it. I am now watching CNN pretty regularly. And besides, their non-news programming is so far ahead of either MSNBC or Fox News, I'm surprised anybody watches those two on off-news days. Lock up? Really?

[BillZBubb]

30. I think everyone with a brain has seen through Maddow now.

She's a shill and a hack. She rode to get big bucks and now she's using it to keep her lofty salary.

[oldandhappy]

31. ignore MSM -- do not let them infringe on your power.

[snowy owl]

38. Dana Bash on CNN way better than Maddow. More trustworthy and better analysis. Fair.

[ThePhilosopher04]

42. She's now wallowing in trash with the likes of Fox News. So disappointing ...

she had so much potential. Credibility gone in an instant.

[pdsimdars]

46. I emailed this to her. I have already sent her what I thought. Let's see if she comes clean.

[anotherproletariat]

47. Eye witnesses described far worse than that. Nice video, but not relevant. nt
