It's simple. They can say they're putting on a "conservative" to play up the whole fair and balanced angle. Meanwhile they put up a clownish parody of conservatism. Fox does it the other way all the time too.
DEFERENCE: A yielding of judgment or preference from respect to the wishes or opinion of another; submission in opinion; regard; respect; complaisance.
Usage: Deference marks an inclination to yield one's opinion, and to acquiesce in the sentiments of another in preference to one's own.
Why does MSNBC do this? Matthews, Olbermann, and Maddow all in a row. They wonder why they have terrible ratings. Why not put Rachel Maddow on and a conservative so we can see both sides. I would try to watch that show. It would be entertaining. Liberal liberal liberal doesnt work.

my god, a lesbian liberal on MSNBC. i knew there was something odd about her

He's had shows in the past. Always a dismal failure. He's not popular with conservatives, liberals, or moderates. lol
