Too bad they'll still be covering as "analysts" as if they really take much care in that role, as opposed to their partisan one.

Two down a few more jagweeds to go.
So it continues to go....

So MSNBC finally realizes being in the tank for the Dems is costing them cash. Now they'll put on a fresh face and pretend for a while.

"So MSNBC finally realizes being in the tank for the Dems..."

Yeah, a network where someone criticized Obama's bowling skills (Joe Scarborough), where someone criticized Obama for (gasp!) ordering orange juice at a diner instead of coffee, where someone had to apologize to Hilary Clinton for making an unfair remark about her regarding Monica Lewinsky, where someone compared Hilary to a stripper, where someone said that Hilary was acting "witchy" (the last four were all from Chris Matthews), where a reporter said that Chelsea Clinton was "pimping" for her mother (David Shuster), where radical rightist Michael Savage was given his own one-hour program, where someone took Hilary strongly to task for her comments regarding primaries and RFK's assassination (Keith Olbermann), is really "in the tank" for the Dems.

So MSNBC replaced Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann with...David Gregory?

Yeah. That'll earn them instant credibility. 'Cause...you know. David Gregory is fair, balanced, and objective. And most of the time, he's sober.

Too bad the F(R)NC won't do the same thing with that paragon of unbiased journalism (rolls eyes) Brit Hume.

daniel rotten,

Thanks for all the examples of substantive journalism over at MSNBC. Got any examples of, oh, I don't know, critisism of a Dem above the third grade level?

And, gosh, if you are as balanced and centered as you sound, it's no wonder FNC doesn't sound fair to you.

Now go back to Kos where you belong.

Gotta luv the weasel words, "perceived shift," it like will ya know at *might* be true but just to cover our asses we'll try, try who?????????

David Gregory? Buwahaha! Frying pans and fires and all that.

daniel rotter - "Yeah, a network where someone criticized Obama's bowling skills (Joe Scarborough), where someone criticized Obama for (gasp!) ordering orange juice at a diner instead of coffee, where someone............"

Yadda, yadda...

You forgot to add the network during the Palin VP announcement proudly displayed the "breaking news" banner on screen that said "How many houses will she add to the ticket?"

More "wisdom" from rotter - "Too bad the F(R)NC won't do the same thing with that paragon of unbiased journalism (rolls eyes) Brit Hume."

Guess you missed the independant reports that judged Fox as giving the most unbiased coverage of both conventions.

What's the matter, pissed that your community organizer appeared on Fox after dodging the place at the behest of his masters at MovOn.asshats.

Sheik, way to call it, that is right Danny crawl back to your Daily Kos/Move On/Code Pink cave...

And while you are it don't forge to like your master, Mullah Obama's boots!!!

Seems there may be a good reason to fire the "odd couple".

Ed and Mitch at Hot Air interviewed Doug, a volunteer driver who worked for the Republican National Convention Committee in St. Paul. The summary ...

-- According to Doug, MS-NBC apparently took no chances on questions from the crowd. Rather than get caught with a question that might make Republicans look good, their producer pre-screened questioners, and Chris Matthews pretended it was random.
-- Republicans were good tippers. MS-NBC stiffed the drivers.
-- Media people talked in the cars about how effective the Republican convention turned out to be, while publicly saying something else entirely.

And here I thought it had something to do with Code Pink.

"Guess you missed the independent reports that judged Fox as giving the most unbiased coverage of both conventions".

Please name these "independent reports".

"...Mullah Obama's..."

Stay classy, right-wingers.

I just saw Susan Estrich on Fox and she said she had heard so much about media bias that she and her son decided to watch another station, not Fox, out of curiosity. She said they watched McCain tell the story of his POW days and then she thought of his classy ad during Obama's speech night about putting politics aside to celebrate his historic achievement. She said after the speech the commentators started "trashing the speech the likes of which I turned off the tv." She said it was sarcastic and almost nasty and disrespectful. Then she said this is the reason they are paying in the polls.

For the young readers, Estrich is a Democrat who was the first female head of a presidential campaign (for Dukakis).

rotter - "Please name these "independent reports".

Geesh... just like the rest of you guys, you have to be spoon fed.

If you had the slightest bit on intellectual curiosity you'd wouldn't be asking but using the abundant online resources to find them.

Gee, I don't recall Brit saying Obama gave him a tingly feeling down his leg, but maybe he did and I forgot about it.

Lol. Moron.

daniel rotter's examples of bias above are mostly criticism of Hillary during the primary in order to help elect someone farther left than she. Rotter gives that as examples of how MSNBC is not left!

I believe in a free press, but what we have now is not a free press. I think we do need to make irresponsible journalists accountable. Heavy fines or waterboarding are quite okay by me.

Wait a minute. Didn't some big exec just recently defend Olbermann saying he was doing a "great job" for them?
