MSNBC is not our savior [View all]

I know that CNN has been infuriating lately, and many of you have rightly pointed out that it is both sidering up a storm and turning to the right. I don't necessarily disagree, but if you turn to MSNBC expecting a more balanced view, beware. It's not happening, except sometimes in the primetime hours.

During the day, MSNBC has been ATROCIOUS the past few days. Their coverage of the midterms is subtle propaganda at its finest. OH NO!!! EVERYTHING IS HOPELESS FOR THE DEMS AND REPUPS WILL WIN NO MATTER WHAT!!!!! about sums it up.

They have these robotic young reporters (one female, one male) who stare blankly into the camera and read talking points from the Walker campaign and the Vance campaign. THEY DO NOT EVEN HAVE REPORTERS FOLLOWING THE WARNOK OR RYAN CAMPAIGNS. What could possibly explain this? Total blackout.

I know that not watching is an option, so replies to that effect will be ignored. They still deserve to be called out on it, am I right?
