1. They're totally ignoring it.
Like it never happened.

Apparently there are two narratives in the MSM, one they broadcast (lies) and one they don't (the truth).

2. yeah....gregory had Murphy on with rachel, and I didn't see anything. I didn't
watch the whole thing, flipping, but I'll bet he didn't ask him

that's because he's not a journalist, and a journalist WOULD have asked him

3. I expected to see RM & MM with duct tape on their mouths
when they opened to the wide shot to include them.

The idiots behind them with the signs are funny. I will be switching to HGTV when the speeches start and rely on DUers that don't have high BP.

7. MSNBC even had Murphy on later and it was as if he has yet to find out about it.
I'm guessing that they're in a Convention bubble.

8. I haven't seen anything
It was a joke with Murphy reappearing and smiling throughout the segment, probably no idea of the YouTube blitz.

BTW, there is now a YouTube version with subtitles:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDBW0SbDxPo

The counters are stuck at slightly over 200 views in all three versions.
