A few days ago DUers were calling MSNBC "Our side's Fox"

1. The solution is for CNBC to be re-branded as Conservative NBC and MSNBC as Progressive NBC.

All that would be required is some minor changes to the line-up.

For example, move Joe Scum to CNBC, and give Tweety new marching orders that he's to pretend to be more Liberal. Tweety will follow the money, as always.

3. Except that it's NOT liberal NBC

they run various right-wing criminals, murderers, sycophants during the day, and now have begun firing people who support Dems.

5. Obviously, that would need to change as part of the re-launch. n/t

2. Except for now, they're actually ACTING like FAUX

At least the corporate office is.

4. I never much watched MSNBC and wondered why others did.

No supposed 'news channel' ought to be all propaganda and opinions, all the time. They're boring. But Fox is dangerous.

6. Who?

7. DUers, of course! We are the Borg, apparently. (At least "some people say" we are.)

9. It's autumn. There is a lot of fresh cut straw on the ground.

So there are a lot of straw men being built in GD.

8. I never called it that. MSNBC is a corporate outlet, that's seen fit to

air a few liberal voices in the evening because that portion of the market was untapped and profitable, that's all. Fox is a propaganda outlet. Profits are incidental for them, as is demonstrated by their continued support for Glenn Beck when his advertisers abandoned him, their initial few years' existence when they ran a large loss, etc.

MSNBC is just another corporate outlet, following a dollar. You can bet they'd drop every liberal voice if their parent conglomerate decided it was in their broader business interest.
