MSNBC, or any of the MSNBC UNIVERSAL family, are NOT your friends. They're a right wing outfit that manages to carefully HIDE their ideological bias, and they only trot it out when it's REALLY needed, when they need to beat down, hard, any 'dangerous' ideas.
The NBC media "family" (which includes Bravo, Telemundo and a host of other stations) makes pennies compared to what the GE empire makes off the Pentagon AND other nations. Billions and Billions and BILLIONS. The media outfits are just there to "shape the message."
They don't advocate like FAUX, in fact, they PRETEND to be the opposite of FAUX--in order to make all the lefties BELIEVE. Hey, when they actually say something that benefits BushCO, it goes down easier than if you hear it from FAUX. "Gee, it must be true--it was on that 'more liberal' MSNBC..."
Some people don't believe that they aren't the "real" fair and balanced media outlet, but they aren't.
"But OH, they have KEITH!!!!!! They MUST be 'progressive' mustn't they?" Yeah, and they play him when all the good network and cable programming starts on other channels, and opposite Dildo Really, so no rightwingers will ever hear a thing he says.
"But OH, they gave him several MILLION to keep doing his SHOW!!! They MUST like his message!!"
Yeah, because they didn't want him wandering off to some genuinely liberal media outlet, like DEMOCRACY NOW, or that one that Dan Rather wandered off to , or Heavens ta Betsy, the TUBES----the INTERNETS!!!--that might change paradigms sooner than they're gonna change, or put him in a timeslot where people who aren't political junkies might see him, and get hooked--like America got hooked on Phil Donohue decades ago.
Nothing wrong with watching that crap--there's always the odd grain of truth every so often--but keep that jaundiced eye wide open!
