I dont think I've read anything funnier here on cd, and I've read lots of postings.

MSNBC, spends ALL DAY attacking the right wingers.. Hell, their whole channel is dedicated to reporting on what Fox is reporting on and various other medias..

For the life of me I cant understand how anyone thinks its news, to report on what another channel is reporting on..

Attacking Fox? Yes. News? I don't remember saying that (I'll take your word that I suggested that) however any true fact brought up on either side is news to me.
MSNBC is opinion when it brings up an issue on its own. It MOSTLY responds to Fox etal as someone would to a con artist - with skepticism. That's its function (long delayed from the inception of right-wing talk some 25 years ago).
Besides there can be "news" in opinion pieces. Bringing up facts of any kind, which counter Fox or anyone else IS news as far as I'm concerned.
You used the phrase "report on..." which suggests a news content.
You seemed to take offense at MSNBC. Is that because Fox is fair and balanced? If it is I stand corrected...

Obama said the economy was so tough, a Jeep Wrangler would have a hard time getting through it.

So the casual reader is left with the deliberate false impression that the president was booed because of his policies.

Just another lie from the Drudge Report.

President Obama: Economy on bumpy 'road to recovery' - Abby Phillip - POLITICO.com
He DID get booed, so it's not a lie.

What is good-natured booing anyway. Sounds a little subjective to me.
