Shillin for RT..go poot! mhw Jun 2017 #3

TYT has nothing to do with RT. Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #8

Yes. elleng Jun 2017 #11

That mob is trying to hang Thom Hartmann with the same rope. Unbelievable. nt Snotcicles Jun 2017 #18

Right, one of the 'others' I referred to earlier. elleng Jun 2017 #22

Except Hartmann accepts a check from the Kremlin every payday. Adrahil Jun 2017 #24

I'll make my judgement based on the content of his program thank you. Snotcicles Jun 2017 #32

The point went right over your head. Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #83

Yeah. Go with that. OilemFirchen Jun 2017 #99

Why is that point hard for you to grasp? Hassin Bin Sober Jun 2017 #148

My goodness! OilemFirchen Jun 2017 #155

It was fairly clear. Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #159

That's progress, I guess. OilemFirchen Jun 2017 #166

but,but when did you last hear Maddow talk net neutrality? Single payer? snowy owl Jun 2017 #131

Never. She only talks about Russia these days. Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #134

We agree. She is so overrated. No one mentioned Schultz on RT. A so-so effort. snowy owl Jun 2017 #152

YES. elleng Jun 2017 #44

Then you are doing exactly what Putin wants Adrahil Jun 2017 #46

So you think those of us who listen can't be selective in who we listen to? snowy owl Jun 2017 #128

Use RT? Not possible. bettyellen Jun 2017 #198

Yes! LOL Lib Jun 2017 #58

Do you listen to him, elleng Jun 2017 #45

I believe Hartmann is syndicated. rickford66 Jun 2017 #55

Exactly. Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #63

So you shoot the messenger instead of listening to the message? snowy owl Jun 2017 #126

Tom Hartman has defended Russia on his show...I no longer listen to him. Demsrule86 Jun 2017 #150

So is Thom Hartmann SHRED Jun 2017 #19

Some have suggested so. elleng Jun 2017 #23

Right...how about this tweet...this is why I have nothing to do with propaganda Demsrule86 Jun 2017 #186

I was discussing TYT, not RT. Voltaire2 Jun 2017 #199

I absolutely had no use for the TYT even before they lied about Maxine. Demsrule86 Jun 2017 #207

Did you mean Jill Stein? (nt) question everything Jun 2017 #15

Yes, thanks! pnwmom Jun 2017 #173

source/link, please to facts about where Jill Stein gets her money and facts about the recount nt diva77 Jun 2017 #192

You can see that she's sitting in Russia at the table. She didn't fund that herself. pnwmom Jun 2017 #193

sorry, these ongoing attacks on Stein are lacking in credible support. diva77 Jun 2017 #194

There are laws governing recounts in every state. This was always going to be pnwmom Jun 2017 #195

until I see credible evidence and a link I remain unconvinced by your arguments. diva77 Jun 2017 #196

Open Secrets reports she raised about $3.7 million during her entire campaign, pnwmom Jun 2017 #197

Stein is trash...she pretended that a recount might work which I knew it wouldn't Demsrule86 Jun 2017 #210

It is in no way a republican crap hole station. elleng Jun 2017 #9

I noticed that too. Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #12

Yes, and we struggle to find 'acceptable' positions and candidates. elleng Jun 2017 #16

Agree 100%. nt Quixote1818 Jun 2017 #35

Cenk used to be a Republican. Now he claims to be a progressive. pnwmom Jun 2017 #178

Elizabeth Warren used to be a Republican. Voltaire2 Jun 2017 #200

Hillary stopped being a Republican when she left home and went to college. pnwmom Jun 2017 #201

I never said I considered them an authority Maeve Jun 2017 #78

Nah, the way they acted all of 2016- Hard F*cking Pass for me. Madam45for2923 Jun 2017 #25

Yep. Trump's little helpers, weren't they? Squinch Jun 2017 #27

Yep! Their hate-foam dripping towards HRC & DEMS- while almost zilch on Trump? Screw that. Madam45for2923 Jun 2017 #37

What are you taking about. Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #41

Am sure very convincing after a year of vicious attacks on HRC! Madam45for2923 Jun 2017 #50

They weren't big fans of Clinton. They said so. They also said that she was far better than Trump, JCanete Jun 2017 #69

Nah they were vicious! -until the point they advocated for voting for her in the GE. Madam45for2923 Jun 2017 #76

Do you understand how primaries work? Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #87

I know how they work and I know what cannot be taken back. Madam45for2923 Jun 2017 #93

Cenk endorsed Hillary one or two days before the election. Classic passive aggressive bettyellen Jun 2017 #106

That is incorrect. Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #109

He officially endorsed her Nov 4. Saying not Donald before that does not count. bettyellen Jun 2017 #111

Well stop lying and I will stop accusing you of such. Nt. Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #112

Video dated Nov 4: https://m.youtube.com/watch?vjSqgRTTtNpA bettyellen Jun 2017 #114

Voting for and endorsing are two different things. Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #117

You can't reason with the Clinton devotees. It's a waste of time. snowy owl Jun 2017 #140

View points are the enemy. Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #142

Cenk endorsed Hillary Nov 4. tammywammy Jun 2017 #113

He said that he is voting for her on Nov. 4 not that he endorsed Her on Nov. Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #115

Here is the Nov 4 endorsement, delete your lies please . bettyellen Jun 2017 #116

In context: Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #118

He "announced his decision" 4/5 days before the election in that video. That's not in dispute. bettyellen Jun 2017 #122

I don't... Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #124

Both have been discussed in TYT. Which is why I rarely watch except for laughs. bettyellen Jun 2017 #125

Actually they haven't! Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #129

Giving the Seth Rich crap credibility makes them worthy of ridicule bettyellen Jun 2017 #139

What are you talking about. Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #144

They're not the only hosts, and you know it. Goalposts! bettyellen Jun 2017 #149

They are the main hosts. Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #154

LOL, NBC and BBC isn't anything like TYT. They actually report, ha ha . bettyellen Jun 2017 #160

I was not comparing TYT to the BBC Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #161

You made a load of comparisons so ridiculous, it matters not. bettyellen Jun 2017 #169

Good for you. Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #170

Can someone PLEASE tell that to TYT too? LOL! Madam45for2923 Jun 2017 #39

I think we need to call them out directly SHRED Jun 2017 #47

TYT was initially funded by a GOP donor heaven05 Jun 2017 #34

specifically by somebody with very negative things to say about money in politics on the Republican JCanete Jun 2017 #62

I still don't know heaven05 Jun 2017 #70

I don't know if the money in politics posture is actually done in good faith? bettyellen Jun 2017 #74

Romer may have his own agenda...I don't know him well enough. If he thinks funding non-corporate JCanete Jun 2017 #77

Are they stepping in for the WaPo or doing anything more than interviews and opinions? bettyellen Jun 2017 #79

I find them to be far more nuanced than most pundits, to be honest. They have clear biases, JCanete Jun 2017 #86

That's funny, I see a resurgence of investigative journalism like we've not seen in 30 years.... bettyellen Jun 2017 #88

But covering news isn't the only thing that pundits do. They talk about the state of the nation, JCanete Jun 2017 #89

I reject the idea that Cenk and company are honest or insightful. I think they're repetative and bettyellen Jun 2017 #92

You need to be more specific. The TYT isn't uniform in its thinking. Cenk just did a very soft-ball JCanete Jun 2017 #94

Cenk does a lot of passive aggressive faint praise editorializing ... bettyellen Jun 2017 #95

It was not initial funding (correct me if I'm wrong) ThirdEye Jun 2017 #204

You do realize that he got $4 million from Buddy Roemer, don't you? Still confused? George II Jun 2017 #49

So, what is your point? Quixote1818 Jun 2017 #51

So what is YOUR point? He's a republican who fought the Democrats when he was... George II Jun 2017 #53

Romer was very down on the GOP's own problem with money in politics, stating so unequivocally in an JCanete Jun 2017 #65

Talking about getting rid of money in politics is not getting money out of politics. His party.... George II Jun 2017 #68

Fuck that, I did not get a shot at Clinton or Booker. If you look at my recent posts about Booker JCanete Jun 2017 #71

Saw it in some comments here at DU kimbutgar Jun 2017 #67

I never saw that. I've seen their coverage mirror RT closely though... as well as bettyellen Jun 2017 #90

The difference being is that... Else You Are Mad Jun 2017 #132

So your comparing RT with one of the most reputable news orgs in the world- the BBC? Seriously? bettyellen Jun 2017 #137
