Why would they allow such a thing or do you think it was an over-site. It was sponsored by a local company - in Bonita Springs FL.

1. It's pretty common actually.
I've lost count of how many times I've seen MSNBC commercials on CNN or vice versa.

2. Your cable provider sells the local ads to anyone who wants them

3. I can just imagine the commercial message--

Is the conservative news you see here not far right wing enough for you? Then come watch Fox News.

4. What about guest appearances. CBS employees are ALWAYS on
CNN, MSNBC....can't reference FOX....can't bear to watch any of them, but I'm always looking for signs that they are spewing less propaganda. Not yet.

The interview with Stahl on MSNBC last evening, however, was quite interesting...it seemed to me that she was trying to say what is being said on DU about the the public believing that MSMs are not doing their job. I was surprised...she displayed concern, but didn't get as fired up as some of us do. She was more forthright than any 'MSM reporter' that I've listened to in many years. She also used 'mainstream media' in her delivery.

Tweety didn't talk over her. I could actually hear Stahl. If one of them talks about their problem and the other lets her speak...we have something unusual going on.
