TG, isn't that exactly what you did? You cherry-picked the Maddow show for what you wanted, and excluded what you didn't want. That's how people criticque things, isn't it? Pointing out what they perceive to be a problem.

As for MSNBC reporting on what Fox is doing, holy cow! It's pretty pathetic when the story is what your competition is doing, instead of just covering the story they're covering. How desperate is that?! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!



I give MSNBC three more years, tops, then it's bye-bye (and good riddance to bad rubbish).

Thats because no one cares enough about what MSNBC is reporting on to take the time out to post the videos.. They have what, a viewership of 10, and all 10 of them post here..

Do enough people watch BSNBC to make it relevant?

Msnbc isnt suppose to tell you what to think or edit video into what they see fit are they? Arent they suppose to report what happened and let the thinking people make up their mind? I didnt know msnbc is suppose to edit things to their point of view and how they see it.

I dont expect the news to spin it how they see it. Just report what happened and let me decide.
What exactly did Maddow edit concerning Sherrod? I did not know that "Maddow" was code name for "Breitbart".

Actually, reporting on when a news source becomes part of the story, rather than maintaining its objectivity is responsible journalism. Journalists have an obligation to not only be critical of public officials and public figures, but to be critical of themselves. It's part of their professional standards. And I've seen a few stories on Fox reporting on journalists from other venues, so your criticism of MSNBC falls short.

Funny, your perfectly willing to excuse Maddow for edits, while blaming Fox, when they both posted the same videos..

You truly have ceased to make sense. Maybe it's all that head smacking...you know, like shaken baby syndrome. Again, what did Maddow edit? Breitbart edited the tape, Fox aired it and Maddow reported on it. Very cut and dry.

Wonder why she left out how Beck actually sided with her. Rachel wanted to mislead viewers. Why would she do that? Why are you making excuses for that

Cannot open the link that you provided, so I have no idea what you are talking about. How did she mislead?
