Reply #3: That is all that is on MSNBC. Why is this national news?

[Democrat 4 Ever]

I'm sorry that a police officer was badly hurt, I really hate it that an asshole murder has escaped and hope they catch him quickly. But why is this "breaking news" and worthy of lame ass interviews every 10 minutes with people who don't know a darn thing more than they did in the last 10 interviews? This is of concern to the city involved but why does the nation need minute by minute updates? I am constantly amazed at what MSNBC and CNN deem newsworthy and spoon feed people who have no dog in the fight?

I'm guessing as long as they focus on the inconsequential (and NO, I'm not saying the shooting of a police officer is inconsequential) they don't have to bother with the more serious issues of a corrupt administration, the trashing of the Constitution, etc.

I'm hoping that MSNBC does continue to lean left (according to reports) but if MSNBC doesn't get rid of the "cutesy pie" newsreaders during the day reporting nothing to fill air time they will never be taken seriously.
