Just like typical bullies, they pick and pick and pick and when the one they're picking on turns around and smacks them, they start yelping. But what did they expect?
Why would you think that when other media outlets are even reporting on the issue?

They've been picking on him nonstop since before January 20; the "czars" business is recent and a small drop in the bucket.

No it isn't. MSNBC was so in the tank for Obama during the Democrat primaries that Hillary Clinton thought Fox News treated her better. It's only mainstream centrist if you are so far left you are over a cliff. In fact, it's so left that NBC regular anchors didn't want the leg tingling Matthews and Olbermann doing the election coverage with them.

Their boss is the beneficiary of White House contracts (National healthcare database, green projects) and stands to make billions from his buddy-buddy relationship with radical Team Obama so what do you expect?

Mere symptoms of a much more serious problem?

Interesting. But more so because Campbell Brown of CNN (and people in my last article on CNN say they are as left-biased as Fox News is "right" ) asked Valerie Jarrett about MSNBC (which really is quite "left biased", but in my view not quite as bad as Fox News is on the right, but still bad enough that I hardly consider them "news" either) and she went into "no comment" mode.

Fire away!
Why do you claim that MSNBC is not "quite as bad" (biased) as Fox News? MSNBC is waaaaaaaaaay more biased than Fox News!

2008 Election
MSNBC

Negative stories about McCain... 73%
Negative stories about Obama... 14%

Fox News
Negative stories about McCain... 40%
Negative stories about Obama... 40%

I do consider Fox News to be news because you hear from both the liberal and conservative side on that station.

Not to mention those who get their jollies by spelling out "faux" every day

Obama finally got smart that picking a fight with the TOP DOG hurt him and made him look like a total crybaby fool.

Just another Obama mistake coming to life and of course a WIN FOR FOX NEWS!

Even anchors on other channels like CNN and MSBNC are against Obama doing this.

Finally someone told Obama his commi ways just backfired on him.
