In reply to the discussion: Is it me or has MSNBC really become to tedious to watch anymore? [View all]gordianot
(15,772 posts)12. You are correct but the fascist State network Fox and the terrible journalism network CNN are similar
MSNBC looks for commentary that does not offend Republicans too much in the 5-10 PM time slot. Republicans of any stripe avoid MSNBC and if they do come on the hosts have to handle them with kid gloves not to insult them or return their vile tirades.
CNN is just plain offensive to everyone poor journalism without insight. ABC and CBS sold out years ago.
I think it is best to turn it all off if going to watch do it in small doses. Jon Stewart in his comedy show comes closest to real news and interviews.
