“MSNBC Liberal analyst”

Alex Wagner is the only attractive liberal I’ve seen.  Very attractive.  I want her.

See, sometimes the right and left can agree on something!

What’s the big deal?

It’ll be the same Progressive tripe spewing from a different mouth!

As Hollywood Icon Archie Bunker would say….Whooopdiedooo!
lmao

MSNBC doubles down on stupid….another ratings bonanza !!

MSNBC’s Phil Griffin , a leading proponent of the Infinite monkey theorem of television progamming .

“ Isn’t Alex a lovely name?”

I actually named my son that because it’s a strong name .

Also , my wife did not care for the name Gloves,Jr.

Medaite left out her last job was at HuffPo.this is MSNBC becoming just as opinionated,all day every day,as Fox News.

So is the real bottom line here that if you are a liberal sheep watch MSNBC,a conservative sheep watch FNC and if youare an independent non sheep there’s always CNN or better yet turn the TV off?

Once upon a time in a galaxy ar far away there was television news that existed only to inform with no biasno opinion just facts and information.

Alas they were destroyed during the empire wars of Murdoch versus the LibDems.It was total destruction.

Where is Luke Newstalker when you need him.Obi Wanttoknowbe?

Okay, Gloves… I admit it.  You made me laugh a little.  :)

you do know that, just based on statistics, that the two largest cities
are los angeles and new york; and that they are also two of the most
liberal cities in the country. 

and since 51-53% if each city is female, we can safely say there
are literally millions of “attractive, liberal women” living inside the
united states.  

and this doesn’t include liberal bastions like chicago, san francisco,
miami, seattle, boston, philadelphia, etc, etc.  

so, i can only conclude two things:

a)  you don’t get out very much

b) you are lying

just because something is progressive, doesn’t necessarily mean it is
illogical or irrational.  it’s a point of view that is rooted in humanism, primarily.

marx, an incredible logician, was a humanist.  as was einstein and many
other intellectuals, philosophers, scientists, and artists.  

Of course it is just as opinionated as Fox News.  I enjoy watching it from time to time, but I take it for what it is – the left side of the argument.  I listen to Limbaugh almost daily because I want to hear the right side.

What’s so wrong with getting information from a variety of sources?  I don’t think anyone here is arguing that MSNBC isn’t biased.

Star Wars humor aside, I appreciate your premise. I wish there was more unbiased news out there. However, I don’t think there’s much of a choice anymore other than to catch as much information (along with spin) from as many sources as you can, not all in one place. Probably your best bet at making an informed decision.

MSNBC obviously has a higher level of discourse than fox.  that goes without
saying.  so, please, no false equivalencies, please.

and keep in mind, the following work for MSNBC and are anything but progressives:

a)  mitchell

b) matthews

c) scarborough

Darla, let’s not try to defend MSNBC as being fair and balanced.  It’s BS when Fox defenders say it, and it’s BS when MSNBC defenders say it.  

To put both sides of the spectrum on one network is idiotic.  If you’re clearly a [political label goes here] network, be that.  Don’t try to hide it and insult the intelligence of your viewers.  Shame on Fox and MSNBC alike for this behavior.

MSNBC defenders don’t say it

that’s my point

I think it was hyperbole.  Give him a break.  He was being light-hearted about it.

MSNBC is more “Fair and Balanced” than the GOP boot lickers on the Fraud News Channel.  

Maybe not to the degree that the fanatics on the right do, but to say that they have a higher level of discourse is still amounting to the same thing.  Let’s be honest, MSNBC doesn’t have a leg to stand on in the “who’s more fair” side.  I tend to agree with most their analyses and reports, but you’re never going to win that argument.  I think it’s best to realize that while MSNBC may present things in a more accurate and clear-headed fashion, relative to the person viewing it, it’s the left-wing version of Fox. Everything might not be a NEWS ALERT or BREAKING NEWS with lots of reds and urgent footer notes, but that’s their tactic.

if msnbc is the “left-wing version” of fox, then show me evidence 
of the president, vice president, CEO and editor saying things like:

“our goal is to help republicans and hurt democrats”

or

“our goal is to make sure that obama is a one-term president”

etc, etc

Sure they are.  Try to find one show where they have on two points of view.  They bring on lefties, and lefties only.

Mitchell and Matthews aren’t lefties?  Are you daft? (rhetorical question)

At least you’re honest.

MSNBC does not present things “in a more accurate and clear-headed fashion”; not by a long shot.  Have you ever watched Matthews, Maddow, Schultz, Sharpton, or O’Donnell?  Come on!

That’s great! Another MSNBC no one will watch!

MSNBC is owned, in part, by GE.  GE’s CEO is Jeffrey Emmelt.  Emmelt is on Obama’s Jobs Board.  Enough said.

LOL

Said by a brain damaged lib who is terminally unemployable.

Because most right-wingers are base and take the offensive by nature, Darla.  It’s evident in the very programming on Fox.  Why should those comments surprise anyone?

Just as it shouldn’t surprise anyone that I can’t find those kind of quotes coming from the upper management of MSNBC.  Because they understand the concept of strategy AND professionalism.

Wow, a liberal who actually has the ability to think!  Kudos to you!

TruDat:  In my opinion, not being bombarded with taglines and lots of strategically-placed clutter all over the screen while being shouted at through the TV is very different from Matthews, Maddow, or the rest going on rants.  Though I’m not really a fan of Sharpton.

It’s statements like that that make us left-leaning people look stupid.

I like Kirstin Powers sometimes depending on her makeup.

I’ll watch it.  She’s hot. ;)

Just kidding, I might flip through it occasionally.

Sounds like darloon is off her drugs again.

And she sneers a lot just like Maddow.

You call “Tawana” Sharpton and Ed Shultz part of the high level of discourse?  LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

andrea mitchell is definitely not a lefty

Not necessarily true – I see Michael Steele on there a lot.  But he usually gets overpowered by either louder talking, “up against the break,” or simply being outnumbered.

where did i say that?

“terminally unemployable”

from someone who posts here all day, every day

I’m fond of her. Soft-spoken. Never angry. Highly analytical. Prepared. Strong. Polite. The anti cable “news” personality. And, what a smile!

from someone who posts here all day, every day

thanks for your concern, jeremy

“Soft-spoken. Never angry. Highly analytical. Prepared. Strong. Polite”

The antithesis of everyone else on MSNBC.

Fine, then – make us look bad, Rob and Darla.  You’re damned right I’m concerned.  If members of my own party can’t make an honest argument, we’re no better than the right.

Great idea, MSNBC. I was thinking that you would have given her one of Chris Matthews time slots. He’s good most of the time. He only needs one show to ask questions over the answers of his guests. (just kidding) Maybe you should consider giving Prof. Melissa Harris- Perry a show. Both she and Alex are attractive and intelligent. I know that I would watch their shows.

LMFAO

man oh man, you just proved what a complete loon you are!..

so it’s obviously not liberal……enough said

Poor loony darloon:

“”our goal is to make sure that obama is a one-term president” was said after 2 years of the Obama nightmare- not when he was elected.

And just who said this:

My job is to make sure this administration (Obama’s) is a success? Chris Matthews of MSNBC

And who is the only news anchor to bow to Obama? Brain Williams!!

LOL

evidence that mitchell is a lefty, then, other than being married
to alan “i never met a tax cut i didn’t love” greenspan.  lol.  

You lost any credibility when you said ” If members of my own party can’t make an honest argument, we’re no better than the right. ”

That really shows your bias that you think everything from the Right is dishonest.

Nice try- I’m sure some fell for your act!

She’s the anti-Fox fox, I like her…..alot.

Her latest was doing a gushy drool job over Michelle’s fashion sense when no one  cared.

NBC’s Mitchell Gushes Over Michelle Obama As ‘Not So Secret Political Weapon’

http://www.mrc.org/biasalert/2011/20111020082233.aspx

No, not everything, and of course I’m biased.  I’d like to meet one person who pays attention to current events and isn’t biased in one way or another. Where here did I say I wasn’t?  I just prefer to call a spade a spade, Nancy. When I see dems making horrible mistakes that irk me, of course I’ll point it out.

“Nice try- I’m sure some fell for your act!”

I didn’t fall for your act.

Please don’t cry.

Shouldn’t you be in class, Nancy?  Recess is over.

Weak- try again. You need some more lifts in your shoes to keep your knuckles from dragging.

Watch out- the King will jump on you for using that non-word “alot.”

so people who gush over the obamas’ fashion are “lefties”

genius argument, mr. terminally unemployable

i work 50 hours a week……thank you  (around 10 – 8)

friday and saturday are my days off

what are your hours, stonepark?

If she’s as good as all you libs here claim she is, how long will it be before she’s kissing Roger Ailes arse to get a spot on FOX – where she’ll be seen by millions instead of thousands!

lol

Does MSNBC even attempt straight-news anymore?  Looks like a who’s-who of hard-left thinking:

RINO Scarborough + 50 Libs in the morning
Martin Bashir at 3
Dylan Ratigan at 4
Chris Matthews at 5
Al Sharpton at 6
Chris Matthews at 7
Ed at 8
Rachel at 9
O’Donnell at 10

And now Wagner at Noon?

Yup – that’s the ticket!

Ahhh, the president of MSNBC said it was a progressive/liberal network. So now you say he is a lair too?

God are you a total failure.

Yeah, she does have that man-like sneer.

You’re not being truthful then.

Then why are you on here NOW??

LMAO

Ditto on what he said.  Even the president of MSNBC stated it’s a liberal network.

…says the missing link.

Ah, poor Jeremy is crying. Do you want your mommy, Jeremy?

LMAO

What a lib shill you are.

Yep, sounds about right.  Too bad they’re not making it a secret that they’re a punditry channel. Because then you’d have an argument.

Way to be current, Nancy.  Your use of those newfangled memes that all the kids are talking about might make people think that you’re relevant.

Well, there it is.  You said it, so it must be true.  Monkey-logic sure is fun, isn’t it?

Riddle me this, though, Nancy:  How could I possibly be a shill if I’m not being paid and point out logical problems with members of my own side?

Ah, poor Jeremy- I struck another nerve. LOL

I’m so happy to draw out what a lib you are.

You are as irrelevant as the King, but thanks for playing, child!

Jeremy, it’s over, child- you have been outed, now go back and put on your Obama drool cup and knee pars before you spoil your diaper.

A nuclear enema would do you good.

Nancy, I believe she asked you a question.  What are your hours?

I’m personally on salary and on-call all the time.  I get to set my own hours.  So let’s get back to the question:  

What are your hours, Nancy?

You’re right.  I’ve been outed.  I make my name public here.  A quick Google search will surely substantiate that.

“A nuclear enema.”  

Again, get back to class, kid.  

LOL

Poor Jeremy, I don’t have to reply to personal questions posed by whack jobs- you feel obligated to do so, so that makes you quite a loser!

Wait, how could I be irrelevant if I’m a shill? Which is it?

Jeremy, ya lost, child!

 If you ever go missing, I’m sure they will put your pic on the side of a Vaseline jar.

You are squealing like Ned Beatty in “Deliverance.”

I struck yet another nerve!

jeremy is resorting to name calling- a true lib sign!

From Wikipedia:

“In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory,[2] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[3] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[4] The noun troll may refer to the provocative message itself, as in: “That was an excellent troll you posted”.”

Admitting that you’re a whack job…  This is pretty entertaining.

I changed my response because I decided to write a more fitting response…  Before you hit the “Post” button.

But I won’t hide it.  I called you a troll.

Poor jeremy now shows he has no reading comprehension.

I’ll count this as a big win!

Ka- Ching!

I’ve always wondered why Chris Matthews has two time slots. He show is so low rated yet they repeat it a hour later. Not hard to understand why MSNBC does so poorly in the ratings.

You do realize that in those liberal bastions, there are Conservatives, right? It’s not as if everyone who lives in a big city has a collectivist idiot mindset.

Big difference. Limbaugh fully admits to being A Conservative. MSLGBT denies being a speaker box for fringe leftwing kooks.

Yes, cooler blues, and inviting the viewers to calm down AND SCREAM EVERYONE WHO DISAGREES WITH WHAT WE SAY  IS RACIST!!!!!!!! 

Come on, dummy.. your analysis, while more reasonable than darladoon, because she’s a completely unreasonable nutcase, is still 100% incorrect.  Not even in the ballpark, sonny.

So your evidence of MSNBC having different viewpoints on is Chris Matthews dragging Michael Steele out once a month and putting him on satellite to ask him why his party hates him for being black while spitting at the other 3 liberals sitting in front of him?

Job well done, sir. Thanks for proving our point.

Here you go.

Darladoon 4 hours ago in reply to retnugMSNBC obviously has a higher level of discourse than fox.  that goes withoutsaying.  so, please, no false equivalencies, please.

They might as well, though, if they haven’t already.  They’re not fooling anyone.

Compared to whom? Mao Tse-Tung?

Jeremy, I’ve been reading your posts here, and although you admit to leaning to the left, at least you have the ability to be objective, and I appreciate that about you. It’s something not often found on forums like this, and I know I’m one of the guilty ones as well.

If you pay attention to what I’m saying, you’ll see that I’m not disagreeing with you about this.  MSNBC = LEFTIST ORGANIZATION.  FOX = CONSERVATIVE ORGANIZATION.  End of story.

But a BIMBO, nonetheless.

FNC gives straight news with Bret Baer (with about 15 minutes of opinion with a usually diverse panel) and Shepard Smith.

No such thing on MSNBC.

I did not mention CNN, because it has become totally irrelevant. 

Why the heck do they need another hour of polical /opinion? I want news   done by a  news journalist who works for nbc news Not another liberal. Why doesn’t msnbc allow people with other views on the channel? and why are they cutting back on news for more stupid opinion shows? 

Alex, you do realize Alex Witt has been anchoring on MSNBC for years and years and years now, right?

Not surprised at all by this. They seem to be replacing every host for the entire day with an ultra Lefty. People say their left wing propaganda starts at 6pm every night but if you watch Bashir it really starts at 3pm.

She is one hot liberal.

hot too.

The right is very delusional in their thinking and this is a common talking point that is going around.  They will believe anything. 

Split hairs all you like, it doesn’t change a thing. Neither show is all too clean on the integrity front.

Agreed on CNN.

Good for the liberal anaylst.

Miss Wagner will be a great morning addition to MSNBC.  (She is filling the vacant Contessa Brewer time slot.)

Mr. Griffin is one smart man !

You must watch Faux Entertainment.  Of course they are “fair and balanced.”  N O T.
Take about conservative tripe!  

MSNBC is a smart, intelligent news station unlike Faux News.

And Fox has Roger Ailes and R. Murdoch.  Enough said.

Miss Wagner has a impressive background:

“Alex Wagner has worked as the cultural correspondent for the Center for American Progress 2003 to 2007, she was editor-in-chief of The Fader magazine, covering cultural movements around the world. She also served as executive director of Not On Our Watch, an advocacy organization focused on mass atrocities and human rights violations.]
Wagner then became the White House correspondent for Politics Daily, a political news magazine under AOL News.] She moved to The Huffington Post after it was acquired by AOL.]
As an analyst on MSNBC, Wagner has appeared on Countdown with Keith Olberman and  The Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell.”

Hey, her background is more impressive than Miss America, Gretchen, on Faux News. 

These comments remind me of when Jon Stewart told Rachel Maddow MSNBC should NOT try to be the “counter” to Fox because NO ONE could ever be as bad at news as Fox. TPaw said last night he wants to be on Rachel’s show. Looking forward to that. Remember, her show was where Rand Paul announced his candidacy — and revealed much about the ramifications of a libertarian theology. Alex Wagner has an impressive resume, certainly one that is progressive and multidimensional rather than based on a rigid set of talking points.

Well, departing from the current discourse, I’d like to wish Alex good luck with the new show.  

 Do NOT call Liberals idiots we did not elect George W. Bush!!!!!!!

I just watched a moment of the train wreck Now with Alex Wagner-First off, the fact the media is controlled and those two women on this show- probably humped their way on TV…makes me sick. You’re views are sickening and I rather eat crap (which would be a whole lot better then listening to Jimmy Williams talk. Don’t think for a second,we the public, side with you. Ron Paul all the way!!!!!!!!

You are a very poor advocate for Ron Paul, since all you do is spew vile hatred instead of saying why people should support him.  And you are not only hateful, but delusional as well if you think you speak for “we the public.”
