Am I to understand, Jim, that despite Maddow being proven wrong on her quotes… by ignoring the journalistic principals even a commentator should maintain… by failing to actually apologize for promoting a lie, and evidently doing no research to prove or disprove it… it’s all okay to you because it was about Rush?

Just as long as you admit Maddow is a conscious liar, I guess we’ve made progress. Why that makes her better than anyone else, I’m not sure.

She admits when she’s wrong…

As I’ve proven… no she doesn’t. You disagree… tell me why. Why does Maddow’s lie and then non-correction, allow you to say she “admits when she’s wrong,” when she clearly doesn’t?

I’m sure Maddow has moments in her past that she regrets. As long as I focus on those moments and convince myself she’s not a good person, does that mean I can conjure up quotes and use them to malign her?

You lack the ability to judge her objectively, and surely by now you realize you got no shot at getting in her pants.

ACORN being defunded
Van Jones being ousted
Exposing NEA

Hmmmmmmm.

This is really why they hate him so much. He gets results.

That’s what scares me about Beck. He’s pretty good at taking different things that absolutely have no connection with one another, then slap them together and present them in a way that makes sorta sense to the audience. It’s less about facts and more about emotional response. It’s not until you watch him keeping in mind that he’s a complete idiot that you begin realize how everything he says is just complete trash and ridiculous.

Once again MacNicol proves she’s allergic to elementary logic and reason.

I used to travel a lot and took his admonishment to heart about people critical of his show that didn’t listen, at least until his Father Coughlin/Joe McCarthy act grew tiresome and he started messing with my karma.

9er – Attracted, aren’t you? Come on.

I stay away from commenting on those on the right engaged in hate speech and self promotion because those odious practices are destructive and counter productive to our American Democracy, and prefer to comment on those who are earnestly contributing to a better society for all of us.

Rachel runs circles around every interviewer in the MSM in her preparation, and shouldn’t even be mentioned in the same sentence with those to whom you apparently share some degree of affection.

Like during the Tea party movement I couldnt stand hearing her call those people (tea Baggers every other sentence)
Those people were just exercising their American right to disagree with a direction.

I see why she has the lowest rated show then all the other political news commentary shows out there.

STILL waiting to see this story on Mediaite! Or better yet… someone tell me why this wasn’t worthy of a post.

More like…looks like an ass.

>In all honesty, Maddow is the Beck for MSNBC. And both are a waste of bandwidth.

She doesn’t go into Alex Jones territory or advocate sedition.

In all honesty, Maddow is the Beck for MSNBC. And both are a waste of bandwidth.

She just might be the next Glenn Beck, minus the success. She is already following his professional path.

Beck: Wildly successful radio host
Maddow: Allegedly on the radio somewhere.

Beck: Uses props, calls himself a clown.
Maddow: Uses props, smug and smirking mannerisms reminiscent of the clown from “It”.

Beck: Looks like a man, weeps like a woman.
Maddow: Looks like a man, has never cried, not even at the end of “Brian’s Song”.

Beck: “Obama is a racist.” Unprovable, but not technically a lie
Maddow: “Limbaugh wanted medal of honor for Martin Luther King’s killer.” False quote, humiliated host forced to make petulant retraction.

Now all Maddow has to do to emulate her idol is double her audience, and then convince an additional half-million people to tune in.

Rachel Maddow: A graduate of Castro Valley High School in Castro Valley, California, Maddow earned a degree in public policy from Stanford University in 1994.[12] At graduation she was awarded the John Gardner Fellowship. She was also the recipient of a Rhodes Scholarship and began her postgraduate study in 1995 at Lincoln College, Oxford. In 2001, she completed her Doctor of Philosophy degree (styled a DPhil) in politics from the University of Oxford.[13] Her doctoral thesis is titled HIV/AIDS and Health Care Reform in British and American Prisons. She was the first openly gay American to win a Rhodes scholarship.

Yeah, I can see the similarity.
