I saw a very laughable article on the Huffington Post that read " Why MSNBC is ruling the bombing investigation." What a dream world they live in.
They have the least resources of any of the major news outlets and can barely cover breaking news. Their agenda driven news programming is based almost completely on partisan politics and they have the dregs of the journalism world as moderators.
I split between CNN and Fox. CNN has some good news coverage and Fox has the superior commentary and the more high profile guests to offer analysis.
MSNBC uses high school kids of staffers as researchers and their news crew was hired from a temp agency.

Do they advertise after they do something like this? Do they try to get credit as a group or do they just hate America so much or its politics or its government that they just want to do the damage, they don’t care if they get public credit, if you will?”
You already posted that, whats the point of repeating it ? To counter your point, Did fox not claim they were middle Eastern Muslims?

I don't see what Mathews said was wrong, domestic terrorists DO tend to be on the far right. That doesn't mean that EVERY domestic terrorist plot is from the far right and it hasn't been established that this was a domestic terrorist plot.

Here is the actual clip:

Look at the post below. Chris Matthews is radicalizing Americans. Good old home grown radicalization, the Chris Matthews MSNBC way.

That's because O'Reilly and others at Fox did fair and honest reporting. They didn't cover up the facts and they didn't automatically assume it had to be a white Chrisitan American like MSNBC and CNN so clearly tried to make people believe.

All MSNBC and CNN could do and are still trying to do is make it seem that these were the two most nicest, most Americanized in every way kids. They downplayed the Russian trip and the Russian government warning, they refused to report on the links to Jihadist websites.

If trust is measured in ratings then the NCAA Basketball Tournament is a televised version of the Bible.

Everyone should find and watch that video "Jihad in America" -- this is exactly what that video was about. The Muslim mullahs are in this country and stirring up all kinds of anti-American hatred and we allow them to keep pouring into this country.

The Muslim terrorists have many more rights in this country than do the American people.
