They have been degrading themselves for years - refusing to cover Bernie in 2016 and trashing him in 2020. Hiring all the old neocons and spooks. Fun to watch them implode....but sad too because they have lied and caused so much of the anger that corrodes our country.
I’ve gotta think we’ve gotten the hang of the game by now. I feel like everyone was in on the joke except McDaniel and this went exactly as it was intended to go. MSM are the most needy mean girls of all time.
lol. Dumb all around. The talking heads at NBC can’t deal with a perspective they disagree with because it could hurt the Narative. Ronna fell into the classic trap (because she’s a nepo baby with low intelligence) - she was forced to say things she probably didn’t agree with to placate the talking heads on the network so she didn’t get fired from the job she didn’t start yet. And then they fired her anyway, which was probably the plan the whole time. The fact she would even consider a job on NBC shows why she’s no longer the RNC head.
When I heard Chuck Todd talk in serious tones about how this wasn’t them being against conservatives, it was about not platforming someone dishonest, I laughed for a solid minute.
These people employed John Brennan, inventor of Russiagate and possibly the most damaging American liar of the last 15 years.
The audacity of thinking Ronna is a bridge too far is simply amazing. Brennan committed perjury to lie about spying on members of congress!
We just started to hash this out on the previous thread, so i won't repeat myself. But the same stable would most likely be creaming if they hired Liz Cheney instead of McDaniel.
Jen Psaki bristling against comparisons between her and Ronna McD is some primo cheeba. When she said the difference is that she stands for honesty whereas McD stands for lies, my sphincter blasted through my sweats and stuck to the tv screen. I’m leaving it there. A tasteful network news icon in the age of the government shill.
I think a few things are signs of intelligence. One is a sense of humor -- especially about one's self. Another is the ability to admit, let alone see, one's mistakes or faults. These people are clueless. We live in a society in which discarded or retired political hacks decide what's reportable. Outside their audience this is pretty well known.
I haven't watched Rachel Maddow do her thing in years. Wow. I just watched all 12 minutes of this performance and I have to say she is truly first rate. She doesn't exactly use method or classical technique but something of her own invention: before our eyes she transforms into the simple, plain-spoken, deeply concerned and objective citizen journalist. Her pursed lips. Her perfect pathos. And she achieves all this despite the hundreds of millions "earned" toeing the establishment line on every issue for almost 20 years. Every war. Every bank bailout. Every worker-crushing policy. Her contortionist facility is breathtaking. We watch and we believe, because we believe that she believes.
The emotional restraint, the stoic refusal to cry out, to despair, to rage - even though she knows "Our Democracy" is at the precipice and total destruction is nigh due to that nefarious MAN and the Rasputin-like powers he's used to ensorcel half the country. Saruman? Rasputin? Sauron himself? Oh no, Putin is Sauron.
I cannot express how wide was the river of tears I shed knowing that if not for the brave stalwarts at MSNBC, FBI, CIA, Justice Dept, various states' attorneys, etc. "Our Democracy" will surely end and night WILL descend... and the nation we have known for over two centuries will cease to exist forever. For if this scrappy rag-tag bunch of rebels don't succeed in stopping us from choosing the next president in a fair election then democracy itself will certainly die. Forever. And don't question all those ballots mailed with no ID. Don't question the ballots harvested by brave government funded Dem-party aligned NGOs. Because starting in 2020 questioning anything about the electoral process became the express train to fascism.
Rachel the Brave. Rachel the Bold and True. And even if WE lose and Our Democracy dies (in darkness?) remember the deeds of this woman. Recall her glory. She may die fighting, but fight she will. And in the dark times to come the little children will whisper in secret spaces and say "tell us the story - tell us about brave Sir Rachel and the last battle for the Clownworld Democracy. Tell us again!"
"You gush like bukkake-porn actresses when any of your huge stable of fingernail-pulling ex-spooks like John Brennan comes on air, or Iraq war sales-goons like Nicolle"
I thought Joy Reid and Maddow were gonna scissor to celebrate.
Thank goodness they're not keeping Ronna McDaniel on, audiences may have been fed politically motivated lies! Could you imagine?
Came here to approve of Ren and Stimpy being used as an excellence barometer

The lunatic left at its best, no opposing views allowed! We own information, all else is false.

Matt, are you really challenging me to dust off the old bong here?
"You gush like bukkake-porn actresses when any of your huge stable of fingernail-pulling ex-spooks like John Brennan comes on air, or Iraq war sales-goons like Nicolle"
Lol
Why did I ever listen to these people? Still not sure, but life makes a lot more sense here on Racket.
I am content in not knowing what a "bukkake-porn" actress gushes like.
