If MSNBC went away it would make any difference. Their ratings are shit and nobody with a functional brain pays any attention.

Fox News started it. Blame those fucking Rupert Murdoch to the hell with journalistic standards propaganda arm of the Republican Party. Also blame their viewer base whom want biased bullshit rather than objective media.
Those motherfuckers at Fox News fucking called Florida for Bush. Then they spent eight years scaring the ahit out of the American people so he could trample the Constituion and profit off wars. Now there is a counter measure and you blame both.
Fuck em, they won't last anyway. Bush couldn't do half the shit he did if MSNBC did evolve into the counter weight back then.
They want it this way then we'll oblige them.

Yeah, its funny how dumb Americans seem when you're abroad. I've felt the same way when I've been overseas. Its a highly charged and indoctrinated society. Most of it is Fox News and the dumbass right wing.
To compare MSNBC as equally culpable for the current division and disinformation in America is not only stupid but intellectually lazy and embarrassing.

If they went away, these partisan hacks and sock puppets would just go to the other networks. 60 minutes' credibility has been essentially shot in recent weeks.

They are two heads of the same coin. Their purpose is to keep people divided and evermore polarized. They serve to keep the herd in line by diverting attention from and omitting real news. While they keep the herd's focus on insignificant issues, the Fed, the MIC, and corporate interests continue to rob the republic.
Remember the next time you're watching mainstream news that they are just trying to stir you up. They want to get a reaction from you.

Shit happens. Shit always happens. Every frigging day. It was just that guys turn.
"The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence.”

There is no mainstream: it's all left wing, then Fox. That's it. It's just that MSLSD is do far over board it's completely obvious. The others are more subtle.
It's gotten so bad even the local DC news is clearly carrying the water for this administration and leftist causes in general. It's easier to notice if you close your eyes and listen to what they say, not get distracted by the shapes and colors used for distraction.

Fox News is a historical journalistic travesty. Whatever happened to Benghazi? Remember how dumb Romney looked on the national stage buying into the Fox News echo chamber during that debate?
That was quite the moment.

Actually, you dumb fuckers don't have clue, MSNBC is almost TWICE as biased as Fox News:
"At the other end of that spectrum lies MSNBC, where opinion fills a full 85% of the channel’s airtime. Pew found that Fox News spent 55 percent of the time on opinion..."

You Libtards are just jealous because Fox News has more viewers than CNN, MSDNC and HLN COMBINED!!
Face it Libtards, nobody watches "Pravda" unless they are forced to. Also, has anyone ever seen Rachel Maddow and Chris Hayes in the same room at the same time?? 8-)

I was in Canada recently, and there was no FoxNews on TV. only CNN and MSNBC. I even saw a commercial of a woman crying on a park bench crying, and the narrator says: "Every year, a gun kills a family member."
How retarded is that?

Um ... the only people suffering are those who have become dependent on the government over the past 5 years ... in enormous numbers. Your memory seems to "forget" quite a few facts.

They should have run a special on all the people suffering having to wait 6 months for brain surgery. That would be real news though so its beyond their ability.

Yeah its true. The whole world thinks Rwpublicans are the scourge of the earth not just Democrats. Bibi Netanyahu fucking loves you though. Arab dictators and the prime minister residing over a horrific aparthied state love them some Republicans.
You do have some supporters. Gulf Arab shitty sell out dictatorahips and the Zionist shit stain Israel.
Other than that the rest of the world gives us Nobel Peace Prizes just for voting you out they hate you so much.

It all makes sense now. Youre living vicariously through liberals like somehow youve actually accomplished something. You keep saying "us" when really you mean them.
Your delusions of accomplishment are just that, delusions. YOU havent accomplished anything nor did YOU win the Nobel Peace Prize.

That's a great idea. Actually the only TV I really watch is the weather channel. The problem is that a large majority of people are NOT unplugging their TV and never will. A large part of our "society." Maybe the Amish got it right, I dunno.

Liberals control ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN and almost all the newspapers as well as the three biggest Internet portals (google, Yahoo and MSN). If MSNBC went away, the media would still be dominated by liberals. Without FoxNews, there would be no conservative voice, only center-left and more left. That is why this thread is retarded, started by a retard. MSNBC is just like the regular media taken one or two steps further. That's why no one watches it. It is the same-old/same-old.
