MSNBC hurts the liberal/progressive cause

[tularetom]

7. Nonsense

MSNBC has a lot of crap on their schedule. Morning Joke, Chucky Toad, Andrea Greenspan, Dylan Ratigan, and Droolin Chris Matthews to name a few. Plus dumbass prison shows up the wazoo.

But it also has 8 hours of fantastic weekend morning programming in addition to the always informative Rachel Maddow show. And these are shows designed to teach and inform you, not just get you scared and pissed off like every other cable "news" network seems to do.

Edited to add this:

I think Rachel has really grown since she first came on the air. She learned a lot from watching Keith Olbermann crash and burn, and she has managed to inject more partisanship into her commentary by doing it in a nice way with subtlety and humor. She is by far the "star" in the MSNBC lineup and superior to any other polictical commentator on the air today.
