Yeah we have a problem when news is all about profit...it's a goddamn shame that integrity and truth take a backseat to sensationalism to appeal to more viewers we end up with morons like glenn beck and sarah palin...what a sad state this country is in...god bless keith olbermann

[EmeraldOodie]

Damn what the haterz say. Olbermann was the truth!!!

[IronEcko]

Olbermann was fired because he his a left-wing nut. Anchors like Beck or O'Reilly aren't going away anytime soon because they have something called viewers. Viewers is a race that is extinct in the land of msnbc.

@EastCoastDude99, you could have said everything you have without being insulting and ugly, but you repeatedly chose not to. My feelings aren't subject to the whims of strangers on the web so you've done me no harm, but you damage your own ability to communicate when you act in such a childish, repulsive, and spiteful way.

[EastCoastDude99]

@suzbailey23.....yes just like you're still blindly claiming that Im calling for "Republican voices" only in the media which I've never said, nor have I even implied. And for the record, Im a Independent Hillary supporter and would vote for her in a second if she runs for President. My point was I wish there was more balance in the media and that includes just about every big city Newspaper in the country. But those points obviously went over your head so you came to your own conclusion.

[suzbailey23]

@EastCoastDude99 still plowing along blindly calling me a liberal, I see? As if calling someone words like "liberal" or "conservative" actually matter... what matters is the facts people bring to a debate, not their party/ideology affiliation. That sort of thinking (or refusal to think) is a HUGE drain on our nation's collective intelligence and ability, and both sides are sadly all too good at it.

[EastCoastDude99]

@suzbailey23.........oh I see, you're quoting me yet it was "originally posted by someone else". Ahhh the brilliant liberal mindset at it's best.

[suzbailey23]

@EastCoastDude99 you can scroll up and see it for yourself; it's not hard to do. It was posted originally by someone else but you jumped all over it, so it's your baby now. In your rush to try to make me look stupid, you failed to address my point. Also, you continue to call me a "leftie" and a "liberal" (when you have no evidence whatsoever of my political views) instead of engaging the debate in a meaningful fashion.

[EastCoastDude99]

@suzbailey23........my call to have "only republican news and voices"? Where and when did I say that? Please copy and paste it so I can read that mysterious quote for myself. THIS is the exact reason it's nearly impossible to debate a liberal, I simply point out the fact that the majority of the mainstream media is liberal and somehow you claim Im calling for "Republican news" only across the board. I can see now why you lefties hate FOX so much when you're constantly missing the point.
