MSNBC: friend or foe [View all]
I love Rachel, and sometimes, I like Ed and Lawrence. I willalso admit I hate Chris Matthews for being a loudmouth, even when he is on our side.
However,I think we need to look at something. Yes, Obama did not bring an "A" game, and yes,we all knew that the Media would praise Mitt even if he tied a dog to the roof of the arena. Citizens United has proven that the media will WHORE themselves for those Billion$ that Pacs will throw around.
I think that while we can LIKE MSNBC,we have to realize that they are controlled by GE, the enemy. After all, for Andrea Mitchell to call out the president for QUOTING HER shows the levels to which Mrs. Greenspan does NOT want to piss off her masters. Yes,yes, copyright, did Miss Mitchell have to personally take the nasty tone, and speak to Obama as if he was some bad boy that took the cookies? Note that not even Rachel deviated fromthe nasty tone and ringing the DOOOOM Bell.
I am not saying there is a conspiracy...but I am sayign that the staff of MSNBC may very well be unable to break away froman elitist perspective, which is another way of saying even though they are left leaning, they still have huge egos which can make it hard for them to take their heads out of their arse.
