CNN's Campbell Brown: White House vs. Fox News is "silly"

[DanMonDab]

She left out the CNN left leaning bias. As well as every network news station.

[Cool7ism]

Fox News is bais to Demcrotics and MSNBC is bais to Republicans -_-

[sirhungfet]

that is so good

[walkermydawg]

The issue that should have been, and is the story, is not a biases between networks, but the fact that the one goes beyond the bias well into the out and out propaganda. That is not a debate, but a fact.

[PeaceFroggs]

Why did you have to leave?

[manvsminaua]

she is so hot, would love to make out with her

[foolchild0]

Yes, Campbell...it is our duty as Americans to band together as a nation and admit that CNN is better than FOX or MSNBC.

[Yanirakarola]

Fox News is WAAAYYYYY more bias than MSNBC...but at the end of the day, none of that fucking matters because the White House shouldn't have any input whatsoever on what the media does as long as it doesn't interfere with individual's rights given in the Constitution...something the Clinton/Bush/Obama administrations have long forgotten. MSNBC be bias!!! Fox be bias!!! CNN be bias (they definitely lean left no doubt)! It's their right....

[stevevandien]

Brown at her best is good, but sometimes she comes across as strident and a little strained, as she does here. Stridency and strain are hard on the ears. These were certainly factors in her show's failure. (That has nothing to do with her commentary here, with which I rather agree.) Katie Couric has the same problem. Her tight, nasal, blatty voice is about as appealing as a broken toilet. The CBS Evening News' ratings are declining. Surprise, surprise.

[demowarrior]

Campbell Brown was being naive. Fox News is openly anti-Obama and openly "plotting" the Government's downfall. Fox hosts, anchors and commentators are blatantly dishonest. It is laughable to argue that the terrorists are jealous of our freedom. Freedom to have Fox News and the KKK?

[NetherToke]

Fox is targeted because it has more ratings than all of the other news stations combined. Obama just fears that Fox will do to him what cnn and msnbc did to Bush.

[ianandrewowens]

took the words out of my mouth

[SteamboatCamp]

FOX Spews should change it's name to "WE HATE OBAMA CAUSE HE BEAT OUR ASS network.

Fox spews thought they had such control of the stupid vote, that any candidate they pushed, would have to win. And if Obama was a regular candidate -- FOX spews hate machine would have worked.

But Obama out foxed them -- and got millions of voters that FOX spews can't find.

[ianandrewowens]

@SteamboatCamp your a dumb shit

[mojame100]

Yes, what about all the distortions from MSNBC when Bush administration was in power?? Did the Administration ever call them out on that much less the rest of the liberal media??? I'm no fan of bush or the Kool Aid from the talking heads, but this is ridiculous from an administration that claims that they support free speech and free media??? Good luck in shedding that; and the more I think of it, they more I want to tune in to Beck!

[ladylordess]

campbell brown how silly is it that you are out of touch and have such a terribly distorted and bias show, not to mention low ratings, that you will be looking for work elsewhere now? LOL........... I hear fox is hiring!!

[KaraLarson26]

Campbell Brown is sooo hot! Lushes eyes, lips, and a beautiful facial complexion. She announced today that she will be leaving CNN due to poor ratings. Will certainly miss watching her at 8pm eastern time Monday through Friday. I know she's biased and to the left, but thats all right with me as long as I could watch her on tv.

[KaraLarson26]

[wikkedSeth]

The fact of the matter is that they are all biased. Some just lean more than others.

[AUS10TEX]

Your friends at MSNBC still love Mrs. Senor. Movel Tov. Why was Ms. Jarrett never questioned about msnbc and left reporting? Why no CNN reports in regards to GE .and White house.via cap/trade ?, WHY show images of tea party as nut's?

Your need to scrounge for ANYTHING resembling violence. Why not report on immigration protests thowing objects at peace officers yesterday.

.

[JoeyFudd]

Campbell is so biased and she can't pronounce her S's either. Why hire an incompetent who can't think straight or speak well? CNN flopped hiring her. She just tried to spin on TV tonight why the majority distrust government. With the House, Senate, and President all Democrats. So what was her reason? They are upset with Goldman Sacks and Wall St. Wall St. is not part of the government, dummy. She's probably blind to her own spin. Disgusting!

[travis21lawyer]

why would you be critical of someone who is praising you, but they are just trying to promote cnn and being the only true journalist network, which is true.

[flobrew]

Wow. She never answered the question about MSNBC. (She could have been asked about NBC,CBS, ANY movie in hollywood about ideological bent.) FOX's viewpoint is seen by many as a refreshing alternative to hearing only one side of the story as we have done for so many decades. I have a new respect for Campbell for calling like it is. (MSNBC is an easy target though. She could have included a lot of "news" organizations that "lean" left (Ms. Couric for example.)

[leafyutube]

Campbell is right in philosophy.

BUT is she saying that the White House should be critical of media that support them? How exactly what that work?

[jasonchristian1984]

Like CNN but Miss Brown is silly for this. Fox does not "lean right" they just flat out lie.

[Logo10]

Is Campbell Brown a journalist or a biased opinionator. How about Anderson Cooper is he a journalist or is he more into scandal entertainment news. CNN sucks.

[bserusha]

Yeah but Fox News intentialy lies and distorts to promote their own agenda!

[SENTRY000]

How about bias in CNN.....MMMM MMMM MMMM

[etherealstill]

Does anyone really believe MSNBC is any more biased than CNN? Campbell Brown is simply marketing her own corporate allegiance by dogging Fox and MSNBC but hyping CNN as unbiased and objective. Bullshit. I've read enough of this woman's editorials to understand that she's a hack trying to climb the ladder.

[etherealstill]

Campbell Brown is an idiot.

[SteelandSouls15]

lol I like how she just didn't give a straight answer about an msnbc bias but was pretty blatant about FOX. She is so full of it

[Jtube41978]

True...

[caesarhauntsbrutus]

Finally something on CNN that I can agree with. Great job Ms. Brown !!!

[cshoem3793]

This is sometimes true but Veriteez's point is that at least O'Reilly and Hannity have people on that disagree with them. It has been widely documented that the large majority of the time Olbermann only invites guests that he agrees with and rarely engages in a debate at all.

[swim73088]

When they have people on that disagree with them they literally yell over them to make their point. O'Reilly has cut peoples microphones off before, and Hannity has never admitted to losing an argument to a guest.

[veriteez]

Fox news is conservative-leaning??? What???? Oh my God, you mean they don't LEAN-LEFT LIKE 90% OF THE REST???? Hey Ms. Jarret, you want a reasonable discussion about healthcare? If it were up to your incompetent President, it would have passed with NO discussion in august. MSNBC LIVE is bias. Keith can't even debate someone he disagrees with. He throws tantrums and name-calls. Atleast Fox shows debate liberals. Can Keith say the opposite? ................No.

[swim73088]

Are you kidding?  Fox is known for attacking their guests, MUCH more so than MSNBC is. Have you ever watched O'Reilly or Hannity debate?

[whiteboy112]

wow..she's a real smartass discovering that's there not just one station with bias.

But she completely misses the point, that the issue was NOT the white house objecting to bias.

The white house is objecting to coverage that misleads, obscures facts and propagates MYTHS about their policies instead of clearing them up.

AND THAT is obviously only to be found at Fox, since it's bias is ANTI-Liberal.

[swim73088]

She did this very well, but it is hard to argue against the fact that the bias and rhetoric coming from FOX really is in a league of its own.

MSNBC is bias to the left, but the language FOX uses and what their commentators insinuate is almost alarming, they simply take it way too far.

Telling seniors they are going to be killed off and that Obama has some master socialist plan for the U.S. is a complete lie. But people believe it, just look who the people at the tea parties turned to.

[pattaya95]

Obama invites far left liberals Olbermann and Maddow of MSNBC to the white house for a 2.5 hour meeting but Obama can only give the General in charge in Afghanistan a lousy 15 min Unbelievable you can see where Obama's priorities are. Imagine the outrage if Bush invited O'Reilly and Hannity to the white house for a 2.5 hour meeting

[seanseanseanseansean]

Don't take issue with Fox comparing the govt with a socialist government. They ARE a socialist government which is trying to quickly hose our capitalist economic system. Thank goodness that Fox is reporting on this evil stuff!

[ActaNonVerba71]

No comparison between MSNBC and Fox. MSNBC is certainly left-wing biased (overall). However, Fox News is literally in a category of its own. MSNBC embellishes and "stretches" interpretations. Fox News is like some giant mindless robot with each of its parts fulfilling their roles. If any morons haven't noticed, MSNBC (and other media sources) spend a significant proprotion of time simply trying to unravel all the lies coming from Fox. Fox literally throws sh*t till it sticks, that's it.

[calimar28]

Obama is Bush's fault. Bush had it all...a GOP congress, the backing of the people. But he was a neocon. He took us down a path of destruction and was so bad a president, that the dumb voters had no other choice but the terrible Obama.

[diogeneeze]

My thought is that we had very little to really pick from in this election. To steal a quote, "There's no there, there;" there just weren't any options that jumped out at me. (how many ppl can use "there" 4x in one sentence? ;)) I don't completely blame Bush, I think the economy, the war, and the brilliant (and expensive) Obama campaign, feeding off our fears and promising (the completely non-descriptive) "change" along with slanted media coverage led to his election.

[unknownunknowns]

If Obama wants to end the war against Fox News, then he should just banned its crew from setting foot in the White House. There, problem solved.

[Maggs707]

You miss the point that Olbermann, Maddow and Matthews, (MSNBC) are primarily commentators as are O'Reilly, Hannity, Beck (FOX) and Dobbs. (CNN), expressing their opinions. The difference is how the regular news anchors present (or create) the news.

[DaFinisherBX]

So commentators don't express their own opinion? You must be HIGH!!!

[blackstrokes]

did u see the video where the fox news director was trying to hype up the tea bagging crowd? now, is that news reporting? or news making?

[mrbriscoe2001]

Fox News shouldn't have been cheerleading the "teabagging" crowd;on the other hand,MSNBC and CNN shouldn't have debated protesters)Sue Roesgen), used a vile sexual reference to refer to the protesters(Anderson Cooper,Rachel Maddow)or basically tried to do everything to discredit the protesters by only pointing out the extremists;you'd have to be brainless to not understand how those stations threw away their own respectability doing those things.

[calimar28]

Campbell doing some serious owning.

[terwilligar1981]

Campbell is also doing what true classic journalism used to be. Telling the facts and not taking sides. AND most certainly not giving an opinion but letting the audience decide.

[Maggs707]

Campbell Brown and Anderson Cooper come the closest to unbiased reporting.

[blackstrokes]

cambell brown is a typical trained but uneducated dumb ass. she's 2 dumb to separate being bias from being an opposition to government. fox does not just report the news and state their opinion. fox create the news by organizing rallies, comparing the government to a nazi and a socialist government. freedom of speech is a two way street. fox has the right to be an opposition to government and the government has the right to defend its self. ms. brown is a disgrace 2 all women n the news business

[Maggs707]

I said they come the closest, not that they are perfect. Just doing an interview like this could be viewed as a biased attempt to sway their viewers towards one side or the other while appearing to remain neutral.

[diogeneeze]

"You lost me (us) at 'dumb ass'." Interesting how people can overlook how biased, and evasive Jarrett was -- When Campbell asked if Fox was biased Jarret immediately smiled and said "Of course they are!" But then when asked if MSNBC was biased, Jarrett hemmed, saying "Well you know what, this is the thing, I don't want to just generalize..." and then rambled a bit and did what they do, turned it to the "important issues," of course health care was her mantra. She is loath to say MSNBC has bias.

[mrbriscoe2001]

"ms Brown is a disgrace 2 all women in the news business"-Are you in the news business?If you are,I submit your total lack of any grammatical abilityis MORE of a disgrace and a sign that YOU'RE the one that is truly "uneducated'. Cambell Brown is the first cable person to spout some common sense on this issue;Olbermann and Maddow go to the White House like lapdogs the same weel Obama tries to intimidate Fox?They both gave away any credibility they had.

[swim73088]

Bush invited Fox exclusively into the white house, and to his ranch in Texas.

[blackstrokes]

she is an air head! she needs to get fired for being so brainless

[mrbriscoe2001]

blavckstroke : aspecific point would be better than a general insult.Why is she an airhead?

[blackstrokes]

cuzz it's crystal clear that fox news is there to oppose any and everything that the white is trying to do. they organize protest and rallies against the government. did u see sean hannity reporting the last tea party protest they had, where he played an old clip from the glen beck tea party which was 2 months prior with far more people to try to make it seem like that was the number of people that was out there on that day? so y can't that monkey cambell brown see that?

[mrbriscoe2001]

blackstrokes:most people can understand that Fox has a rightward slant;the problem is that in singling them out ,the White House looks ridiculous because MSNBC is their lapdog,with CNN just a little behind;was Fox wrong to help in organizing and cheerleading the Tea parties?Yes;but the deliberate attempts by MSNBC and CNN to discredit the rallies were just as unprofessional;how many "professional journalists" fromt tbhose 2 stations used the "teaagging"sexual reference?;that's professionalism?

[56LC]

I have 2 (one recent) examples of bias media politics, both end with freedom of speech, media fairness and quality losing out. The Nazis intimidated or bought out the media in Germany (the famous they came foe everyone else until i was alone comes to mind), by cheer mass propaganda and brainwashing. More recently the mostly private media that took the side of the political opposition to Chavez has been censored or driven out business. I hope that she keeps her job there in the future.

[diogeneeze]

Well said. She did express an opinion, BUT it was about the interview, not about any hidden agenda she herself might have had.

I was impressed, and surprised... CNN defending Fox and questioning the gov's actions? Maybe I phrased that wrong though; I think she was actually defending, as you said, journalism in general. Again, impressive.

[TMaeGallagher]

Campbell... I was with you until you suggested that CNN is somehow unbiased. Please tell me WHEN CNN fact checked a SNL skit when it was aimed at someone on the right? CNN had the audacity to fact check a skit solely because it was aimed at Obama. So, for you to suggest CNN is above it all is laughable. The fact that you FINALLY decided ask someone from the Obama administration a hardball question does change your left bias. Your ratings are in the can because people actually want the truth!

[jmspflw]

Campbell is the best looking liberal woman. Glad to see she has some integrity.

[mboy45]

Campbell has it nailed. Thanks for your objective clarity.

[spectrum7virkeytroni]

FNC and MSNBC are almost exact parallels --

FNC --

Extreme Right: Beck and Hannity

Lean Right: O'Reilly and Cavuto

Token Lefty: VanSustern

MSNBC --

Extreme Left: Shultz, Olberman, and Maddow

Lean Left: Matthews

Token Righty: Scarborough

And from about 10AM to 4PM -- pretty much straight news (although MSNBC always seems to be interviewing Democrats, and FNC always seems to be interviewing Republicans). But at least they're both trying to do straight news during the day.

[Maggs707]

Correction for MSNBC-

Maddow is more in your "Lean Left" category. While mild in her manner, she has called out Obama on inconsistencies and broken promises on many occasions.

Also, add Pat Buchanan to MSNBC's line up, definitely a hard right Conservative.

[spectrum7virkeytroni]

Yes; moving Maddow to "Lean Left" also evens up the numbers a bit -- to 2, 2, 1 for each network.

As for Buchanan, I didn't mention him because I was just listing people who hosted daily programs. For example, one could equally list Juan Williams as "hard left" for Fox. But like Buchanan, he doesn't host a daily show.

It's fun to analyze, though!

[goni27]

you nailed it!

[thrawn42]

What a load of disingenuous crap? Jarrett admitted in the interview that not only Fox News is biased.

On top of that, Brown can't see the difference between Fox News and MSNBC? What kind of journalist is she?

What 'news' organization was sponsoring and promoting anti-government protests this summer? Was it MSNBC?

If Alan Grayson will permit me to borrow his word. She's an attention 'whore.' Brown just wants to get the big story by playing centrist while getting the CNN name out there

[hartman8883]

I disagree. I am a moderate and MSNBC and Foxnews are both bias to the left and right respectively. I cannot agree with her more.

[hartman8883]

I disagree. I am a moderate and MSNBC and Foxnews are both bias to the left and right respectively. I cannot agree with her more.

Anyone remember Crossfire?

[stewart0312]

I wonder what color the sky is in the universe that Campbell Brown is living in? MSNBC may be bias now and then but Faux News has a 24/7 Neo-con agenda.

[calimar28]

oh shut up. MSNBC is a liberal communist channel full of lies.

[jppuertorico85]

And Rachel Maddow and Keith Olberman don't have a 24/7 code pink agenda? Please, I mean Jeanine Garafolo is a commentator on msnbc for crying out loud! I gladly admit that Fox leans right, but MSNBC leans left just as far, just as often.

[stewart0312]

Has MSNBC promoted a tea party protest while Bush was in power? Has Olbermann called Bush a racist? You are comparing apples and oranges.

[DaFinisherBX]

NO... but MSNBC did promote CODE PINK & other radical left bias movements. GE the parent company did donate a large sum of money to CODE PINK & I believe they could use the money 24/7 if they wanted to.

[stewart0312]

Really? Please post a link to clips where MSNBC producer and hosts rallied the crowd, and plugged dates and locations.

[DaFinisherBX]

Mark cites Shay at Booker Rising,who had this to say:

I took the shuttle bus back to Minneapolis, and I overheard a convention organizer named Phil telling a convention delegate that the protesters on Wednesday night got through because of media credentials that were traced back to MSNBC (he told her that each credential has an individual bar code for each convention invitee). They suspect MSNBC this time as well.

[swim73088]

I don't think they did, but if so they did to a MUCH less extent than Fox promoted the tea bag parties. Fox was literally rallying people and telling them when to cheer on camera.

Code Pink does not thank or associate themselves with MSNBC. The tea baggers were literally holding up signs thanking Beck and Hannity explicitly. There is no comparison!

The tea baggers were protesting against things that were literally fabricated and promoted by Fox. They were directly responsible.

[mrbriscoe2001]

Nobody is disputing bias here;what we're objecting to is trying to marginalize one station for anti-administration bias while ignoring MSNBC,which acts like "the research arm of the Democratic Party"; j

[swim73088]

But you are missing the point. Fox helped stage protests against the Obama administration and fabricates facts which are past off as news.

Leaning left or right is one thing, but for a mainstream news station to tell the American people that the president is fascist, muslim, foreign born, and wants to kill the elderly is taking it too far.

They pander to the republican base which is notoriously misinformed and undereducated. Just look at the tea bag protests for proof.

[mrbriscoe2001]

swim7308:Your argument comes down to :Our bias isok,their's goes too far;that philosophy is dangerous-";-Olbermann called the Bush Administration fascist repeatedly-last November,many Left leaning stations had Naomi Wolf as a guest,who suggested there was a coup in the works;Howard Dean talked about the theory that the Bush administration knew about 911 ahead of time "interesting"; a cowardly way of endorsing the idea-but that never stopped the Leftie stations from booking him.

[mrbriscoe2001]

I don't like stereotypes;classifying the Right as "under-educated" is the same as classifying the Left as "trust fund limousine liberals;not very useful or smart;especially when your post has misspellings.

[swim73088]

It is well known that the republican base and their media leaders have a low education level, don't kid yourself. The number of scientists who are Republican is something like 3%.

Hannity, Beck, and Limbaugh are not college grads. But their MSNBC equivalents (Olbermann, Maddow etc) are Ivy League educated.

Obviously this argument has its limits, but if you think the majority of people at those Tea Bag rallies are university educated you are deluded.

[mrbriscoe2001]

swim7308:The problem with your argument is that not many people think a college degree means much anymore;I'll take a hardworking ,hungry high school grad over an Ivy Leauge slacker with a sense of entitlememt anyday.Of course ,for certain disciplines,a college grad might be preferable,but,overall,your theory that non-colege grads are dumber is,well,elitist,and dumb.I wouldn't trust Maher or Olbermann to be able to do anything but spout nonsense,no matter how many times they bring up Cornell.i

[swim73088]

I don't think they are dumber, I think they may be a bit less informed.

This seperates the outspoken fringe on the left and the right. The fringe on the left use rhetoric to make a point (even though its not true, for example, calling Bush a fascist). People on the fringe right don't know what a fascist, communist, czar, etc actually is, but they use this terminology because they heard Glenn Beck using it and it makes them look, for the lack of a better phrase, completely idiotic.

[veriteez]

swim73088- I You're missing my point. Hannity has stated he is a conservative/republican. So he comes at you from the right. O'reilly and hannity are poltical commentators. That's where you lose. I'm talking about MSNBC live who seems to slant their news left. Forget Olbermann, maddow and Ed. They all lean left. I don't complain about them because I know which way they adhere to, BUT Olbermann is notorious for NOT having people on who oppose him for a debate.

[swim73088]

Hannity and O'Reilly debating is a joke. O'Reilly, although the lesser of two evils, yells over his guests and has cut their microphones off. Hannity is the worst of them all.  At least O'Reilly can sometimes admit the other side has a good point, Hannity is so one sided and idiotic he is sometimes hard to watch.

[veriteez]

swim73088- Hannity is one-sided? Yeah, we already know that. He's a republican, BUT he will debate. He doesn't yell over people. O'reilly has in the past, BUT he still debates 2 liberals at once. Olbermann on the other hand doesn't debate anyone. ANYONE. A-N-Y-O-N-E. Now, ya want to defend Keith? My only beef with him is just what I said. I know he's a left-winger. I can deal with that. But I want you to slam Olbermann, if you're going to slam hannity and Bill. Can you?

[swim73088]

You are missing one key point...that is not the nature of his show! Glenn Beck does not debate either because that is not what his show is about either.

I'm sure Olbermann doesn't flat out refuse to debate anyone, its just his show is not structured in such a way that he could. He barely has guests on his show, not nearly as much as Hannity or O'Reilly.

Your argument is flawed.

[veriteez]

swim73088- My argument stands. Beck has interviewed socialists on his show. Keith has interviewed........other democrats.

[WorldBFree2006]

You're leaving out the part where conservatives are lobbed softballs and allowed to speak without interuption and liberals, are blasted by Hannity and O'Reilly and asked questions like do you still beat your wife.

[veriteez]

worldbfree- O'reilly has blasted Bush in the past for not being tough on immigration. Both Hannity and O'reilly debate liberals. You haven't actually watched either show to make a stupid comment like you did. You leave out the fact that OLBERMANN DOES NOT INTERVIEW OR DEBATE CONSERVATIVES. PERIOD. stop with the denial. You know it's a fact. Beck, Hannity, O'reilly HAVE DEBATED LIBERALS AND SOCIALISTS. You seem to leave out alot. Come back when you're right, and I'm wrong.

[WorldBFree2006]

Yes, O'Reilly has (ocaisinonally) criticized Bush, but only for not being conservative enough. He has never taken a progressive position. Nor has he condemned the radical comments made by Michelle Bachman, Joe Wilson, or James Inhofe. He continues to deny the blatant racism at the so-called tea parties. O'Reilly brings liberals on his show for the sole purpose of shouting them down. They are often outnumbered and have even had their feed cut off. It's not a fair debate. It's a circus.

[veriteez]

MSNBC has re-edited a video, a video that shows a black man at a rally carrying a gun. They edit it and proclaim it's a white man. Where the heck have you been? Has olbermann criticized Eric Holder for dropping charges against the new black panthers for voter intimidation? How about Obamas' incompetent approach regarding the police officers acting stupidly, yet stating "let's not jump to conclusions about the Fort Hood attack from a military muslim who associated with terrorists? No!! Wow!!! lol

[WorldBFree2006]

I do not claim MSNBC is perfect, but look at voter intimidation. Who has been guilty of it over the years, black panthers or white supremacist groups? Were any of them ever charged? Why charge the black panthers and not the klan? I know not of what happened in Ft. Hood, I do not believe the shooter being muslim to have any bearing on his decision anymore than did being a white christian have to do with the actions of the Columbine shooters.

[veriteez]

worldbfree- That's funny. I haven't heard of any white supremacist groups involved in voter intimidation. Are you trying to justify the black panthers with that? Why charge the black panthers? because of weapons brought with them to intimidate people. Ya think??? The ft. hood shooter was communicating with terrorists and yelled allah is great. Please!!!! The columbine shooters were not christians. They actually shot and killed a christian. Wow!!!!! Lol

[azzh00le]

Try watching it without doing a hit of acid first. Or dont watch it at all if it upsets you so much. Join the 8 people that watch MSDNC

[WorldBFree2006]

so ur saying faux news is fair to it's progressive guests? at least you have a sense of humor.

[azzh00le]

You're describing cherry picked excerpts. I've seen Oreilly defend your messiah numerous times, but you're obviously a very brain damaged individual who doesn't watch it. Whiny liberal pussies like your self is what got me watching it. You give them free publicity and you're too stupid to even know it. I have to go to work now have a good night

[WorldBFree2006]

First of all I do not have a messiah, if you mean Obama I didn't even vote for him. Secondly, if so-called whiny liberal pussies have so much influence over you that they can get you to do anything then you a very weak will. And, why do I have to know you're going to work? Do you think you're special or something? By the way, what makes you so different from "liberal pussies?" Or is it badass to talk shit from the safety and annominity of a computer monitor?

[MrMZaccone]

@veriteez Hannity won't yell over people??? You've obviously never listened to his radio program, I've heard him not only yell over people but use such logical fallacies as complex question to shut people up and then hang up on them when they won't answer yes or no to a question that can't be answered that way. The guy is a disgrace to any claim that the right are even rational people. 

[mrbriscoe2001]

Now the conversation has become:Lefty Loons are more eloquent than Righty Loons?Yeah,but our aluminum hats are much snappier than your's;I still think you're guilty of gross oversimplification;I think if you ask the average construction worker what Communism is,he won't have any problems answering your question.;

[swim73088]

The people at the town hall meetings and tea bag parties clearly are misinformed, there is no denying that. Look at the last election for christ sake. McCain had people at his speeches claim Obama was a Muslim to his face, you do not get anything that fringe at mainstream Democrat events.

The Republican party use simple figureheads who have little knowledge of the issues to appeal to their misinformed base. Look at Palin and Joe the Plumber for example.

[mrbriscoe2001]

Give me a break about the Right having a corner on uninformed fringe elements:dominating conversation in Leftist circles last year:Bush,Cheney ,and an ever expanding list of co-conspirators being responsible for 911;(including Rupert Murdoch and the editors pf Popular Mechanics) Howard dean even gave a wink and a nod to those nuts,then was made DNC head ; then there was the lady at the Obama rally who thought she wouldn't have to pay her morgage afeter Obama's election;

[mongoose63124]

i believe you dont see bias on msnbc. you have no common sense

[jppuertorico85]

While I agree w/ your last paragraph you have to admit there's a definite bias @ MSNBC that is just as concurrent as the bias at Fox for the right. Which network was extolling Obama and basing their whole programming for Jan 09 on Obama's slogan "Yes We Can" and even had Matthews admit that Obama gives him shivers up his legs or whatever. Please, there's bias all around.

[benadam74]

"speak truth to power"?? Yee, to those in the tank for Messiah Obama and his leftist government officials!!

[diogeneeze]

Yeah, I caught that on a BBC editorial, along the lines of "The poor leaders of the most powerful country in the world victimized by Big Bad Fox." (Highly paraphrased, sorry). But the WH essentially saying they're trying to curb media power is ludicrous.

[wolfshac]

madamezora7 if you are saying that MSNBC doesn't "lie" everyday than you are indeed a biased idiot. And believing Rick Sanchez at CNN isn't biased as hell isn't much more intellectually honest.

Please tell me what they lie about, and don't just say how they're big fat meanies okay? Tell me what they've said that is untrue. Who said anything about Sanchez? Stick to the topic. I KNOW people come to their jobs with their own biases, that doesn't excuse lying.

madamezora, you are the idiot. If you can't call MSNBC biased and dishonest, then you need to acknowledge your own bias and stupidity.

[madamezora7]

Listen, I'll keep hammering this until it sinks in- I KNOW they are biased!!! I fucking get it, okay? Opinion shows like Maddow, Olbermann, Beck, Limbaugh and the like are SUPPOSED to be biased, they're up front about that. That is not the problem.

The problem is that they call the *right*- not requirement- to have an end of life discussion with your doctor be covered by your insurance an attempt to kill old people is an egregious lie. Sadly, one of many that distort real discussion.

And madame Valerie Jarrett

Being stupid cunts you both understood very little.

Cunts must not vote. They elect cunts.

You did.

[madamezora7]

What is it I did not understand? Substance, please. I supported my statements, can you do the same?

[madamezora7]

Cambell, you stupid cunt. I can't believe you didn't hear the very clear words of Valerie Jarrett- this ISN'T about bias! EVERYONE understands both stations are biased, please get your head out of your twat. This is about honesty- okay? Honesty. Now repeat after me- honesty. FOX reports as news things that are blatantly UNTRUE. Do you get it yet? You can't call lies journalism, and you can't ignore what the person you interview is saying because the rest of us heard her quite clearly. Idiot.
