Yes, it's why I don't watch any of it. It's a distraction meant to divide the masses. nt stillwaiting Feb 2014 #46

Absolutely. And that is what Maher means by comparing it to Faux. That's that what they did sabrina 1 Feb 2014 #66

Correct. 840high Feb 2014 #101

There's nothing liberal about Maher(ASSHOLE) so you attack the messenger for Christie's fuckup bigdarryl Feb 2014 #2

MSNBC has been a joke for a long time (with a couple bright spots) NightWatcher Feb 2014 #4

Thats funny since Rachel has been kicking Fox New's ass lately! VanillaRhapsody Feb 2014 #51

Beating Fox doesn't change the fact that it is what it is NightWatcher Feb 2014 #55

Apparently it DOES....seems people ARE tuning in for EXACTLY what you are VanillaRhapsody Feb 2014 #60

An important note. Rachel is kicking ass in the demographic that matters. I think it's 18-49 or okaawhatever Feb 2014 #67

My question. What other news organizations? When there is only one that pushes against FOX, I see The Wielding Truth Feb 2014 #7

I agree with Bill in that there are more important things to talk about Vashta Nerada Feb 2014 #8

You don't have to hear those things on MSNBC. Your priorities aren't the be all/end all of the news. Tarheel_Dem Feb 2014 #10

They're not just "my priorities". Vashta Nerada Feb 2014 #14

So you say. That still doesn't make your wishes any more important than those who actually cover.... Tarheel_Dem Feb 2014 #20

Again, they're not my wishes. Vashta Nerada Feb 2014 #21

As head of the RGA, Christie and his cast of characters have national platform. So you couldn't be Tarheel_Dem Feb 2014 #30

Sorry. Vashta Nerada Feb 2014 #31

And who the hell is stopping you from caring about those things? Just because they aren't the..... Tarheel_Dem Feb 2014 #35

The problem for us MSNBC watchers is 4 hours a night on one issue is too much Hamlette Feb 2014 #18

Exactly. It becomes a 4 hour filibuster every damn night. BlueStreak Feb 2014 #25

Exactly. You used to hear different stories, at least one or two, on each of the shows. DebJ Feb 2014 #86
