(5,272 posts)major hiring criteria... want money out of politics. I think they are okay with reaching disaffected voters across the spectrum, and I wouldn't be surprised or even bothered if they hired conservative pundits who at least shared that bottom line interest.
They are also trying not to hire people in their cookie cutter image beyond that core issue, which is a good thing...people who will bring different perspectives on these topics and not make them seem like a Stepford family of robots. I don't think that's a bad thing, and Tracey, the man in question here, is constantly challenging and being challenged by Cenk as to the conversation on Russia, etc. Its far better to have these conversations than to just let everybody go to their preferred outlets and get one side of the story, or simple ambush style interviews with the other side.
