There is something fundamentally wrong with this MSNBC segment

[Subdivisions]

that has the wife of the CAUSE of all our financial/economic woes, Andrea Mitchell, involved in the analysis of President Obama's address to Wall Street. Has she absolutely no shame that she sleeps with the man (ewww!) who caused all this?

[closeupready]

1. Of course it's wrong. But a 'conflict of interest' is considered cute and old-fashioned.

Nobody cares about conflicts of interest anymore.

[knowbody0]

2. she surely must live in a blind bliss of ignorance

to be able to continue spewing "facts" our way. amazing.

[havocmom]

7. No, she is an unabashed part of the problem

[notadmblnd]

3. well, she's no prize herself so I would think that they find each other quite attractive

She loves his wrinkles, he loves her acne scars.

[Gman2]

14. That is fucking STUPID. What do her looks have to do with squat?

I get tired of pelosi is ugly, Hillary beast. Milf Bachmann and Palin. Women are humans. Sometimes they are attractive, sometimes not. What business is it of yours?

[notadmblnd]

15. Look, the OP made a judgement in regards to the old man, why are you not jumping down his throat?

Oh, double standards I see.

[Gman2]

16. Didnt see it. Jsut dont like a woman only being her flesh.

[Duppers]

18. self-deleted

[havocmom]

4. Yep

Time for her to be yanked off the air. Way past time.

[Cleita]

5. Write to MSNBC and point this out to them.

It seems that David Shuster should have been doing this, but he got fired, er suspended indefinitely. However, how about Lawrence O'Donnell?

[arthritisR_US]

10. I agree! n/t

[Captain Hilts]

6. BINGO. And reason #4,317 why I don't watch MSNBC. nt

[Subdivisions]

9. I stopped watching regularly too. I mostly only watch for breaking

action like the President's address this morning. And then only MSNBC. I'll also tune in to Dylan, Keith, Rachel, and sometimes Ed. But most of their good stuff is available online or in later repeats. I quit watching CNN even longer ago. Network news? I haven't watched network news in so long that I only recently found out that Diane Sawyer is an evening anchor now and George Steph- took her place on GMA. I no longer watch any Sunday news programs.

[Captain Hilts]

12. I gave up the Sunday chat shows too. I look to print, online and dead trees now. It's edited and

generally more thoughtful than one person's rantings, which are what TV news and weblogs have become.

[Romulox]

8. The President isn't exactly setting the tone wrt conflicts of interest and Goldman Sachs.

[arthritisR_US]

11. excellent point! n/t

[Lochloosa]

13. Not to worry.

They have separate coffins.

[jwirr]

17. She should recuse herself from all financial news.

[Aramchek]

19. at least she is willing to admit that the Repukes are fucked on this one

[Duppers]

20. Oh yes!! I was thinking the exact same thing today. nt.

21. Conflict of interest died with the 2000 Selection.

I'm surprised we got Habeas back as fast as we did.
