    They are in the business of bashing.

    Do two wrongs make a right?

    At least you admit they are wrong.

    For bashing? Yeah, that's wrong. But wouldn't that mean that anyone else who does it is also wrong?

    I visit many sites for information, but I do not visit MSNBC. Maybe it's just me.

    Yup, the discussions are so partisan AND infantile,, it insults anybody with a brain. I am a independent and fiscally conservative, but had a problem watching Hannity many times, just too partisan for my taste. I enjoy watching Oreilly and though obviously conservative I find him very fair, accurate, and informative. He discusses both sides with a minimum of partisan hacking. He takes jabs at both sides, but not worthless jabs, and not just for the sake of jabbing...

    MSNBC has become pure partisan political hacking, and makes no bones about it. They are doing a disservice to the Democratic party in my opinion as their credibility to fairness and accuracy is completely shot!! It amazes me in trying to copy Fox they picked the worse possible part....Hannity..
    Dont get me wrong as many times I do agree with Shawn, it's just that he's too much if you know what I mean...

    Mika is a hack,,,I wonder if she really thinks like that or it's just play for the show...She is obviously intelligent, but the partisan bit is really overboard...Ever watch the faces she makes?,,,hahahahah
    Mention Obama and she is all smiles,,,mention Republican.....

    I don't think I have enough time to discuss ALL of that stuff, but I was referring to their obvious partisan bashing.

    That's OK, you don't have to discuss ALL the stuff, just list two or three things that you felt were especially inaccurate that you saw on MSNBC.

    I'd be interested to know, thank you.

    Liberalism is the worst piece of crap ever to hit this sorry-ass earth. MSNBC should be forcebly disbanded, along with Communist News Ntwork, PBS, NBC, ABC, and CBS...

    Quite frankly, I couldn't tell you if anything was inaccurate, not that it wasn't. I was not paying full attention to the drones on that station. My point was that they are very biased toward the left and bash the right. Do you disagree?

    bias is one thing.... inaccuracy is another. If they say nothing INACCURATE, how can you fault them?

    ok... if you are not saying they are accurate, can you point to one thing that MSNBC has said that was INaccurate?

    Thanks for your contribution.

    That is the kind of factually well researched, thoughtful, and well supported logical analysis we have come to expect from our conservative friends.

    OK, so your OP was based on you not paying attention and you have nothing you can point to as being inaccurate in what you saw or heard.

    Thanks for clarifying the basis for your rant, as I feel it is now safe to call it that.

    Some more than others.

    Quite frankly, I don't care. Their viewership is at an all-time low, they are leftist from the word go, and are pretty much irrelevant. I could research and find some stuff, but I won't. I don't care. Their reputation speaks for itself.

    I was just wondering if there was any substance to your rant.

    Which we have now established.

    I wonder why, since you have no actual knowledge of their broadcasts, nor any actual knowledge of any inaccuracies that they might have put out over the air.... why didn't you just let their reputation speak for itself and you could have **** and saved an enormous amount of bandwidth?

    We've also established that MSLSD is irrelevant.

    Irrelevant to what? The news? Disagree with your opinion.

    We got that you don't like them.

    That was evident in the now established baseless rant in your OP.
