24. The story being put out

Jul 2015

is that Big Ed got canned because of his opposition to the TPP. I can believe that, but I also believe that he got canned for his coverage of Bernie Sanders. I see Rachel just had a spot covering Bernie, she better be careful. I watch Rachel and Chris Hayes because they stray from the M$M narrative. Anyone who believes that msnbc is liberal needs to explain to me; Phil Donahue, Keith Olbermann, Cenk Uygar, Martin Brashear, Dylan Ratigan, and now the latest bunch.

Olbermann's name is being thrown out as smoke bomb, a decoy, to appease the libruls who watch msnbc. If he is brought back I will apologize for this post.
