I am a long-time viewer -- a Democratic progressive -- who has put up with your firing of past progressive announcers, from Keith Olbermann to Ed Schultz to Cenk Uiger.

If you get rid of Lawrence O'Donnell, you can take your contempt for progressive America and stay in your cowardly bubble, because consumers will detest your brand as badly as they already do your parent company's.

Americans' distrust of media isn't as accurately described by this president as it is when you all in media insult progressive Americans with more he-said/she-said journalism and market infotainments.

I'm glad you were slammed at the White House Correspondents Dinner. When you pander to progressive issues, yet fire progressive news hosts; when you sacrifice your prime time news ratings for ideological dictates of some parent company or president, you deserve all the ever-growing distrust, contempt and sponsor boycotts of your viewers.

Stop being scared of Trump's threats. Start telling the truth to an audience that will be here long after that suited mafioso is gone.

Again.

If you get rid of Lawrence O'Donnell, I will never watch your network again for any reason, ever, because you have shown yourselves to be no better than Russian media cowards.


At least I got that off my chest.
