hahaha. that made my day.
That being said, you know if you watch ABC news or CBS news for example, lets say for a 24 hour period you might be able to decipher out some
left-leaning ideology.
10 seconds listening to whatever Fox is talking about and your head will explode from the propaganda.
CNN is very mainstream and they really want to now become the "moderate" network in the Fox news conservatives vs. MSNBC liberals.
MSNBC knew there was a market during the early Bush years for the left because they saw what was happening. Liberals were extremely disinfranchised.
Fox was rocking out in the ratings and they were conservative as ever...CNN wasn't taking a stand so I think MSNBC made an incredibly clever
decision.
They can never compete with Fox...too many "loyal" viewers...so they decided to become the liberal network because then they would have their own
"loyal" viewers and perhaps in time it would pay off....and it has.
And please dont flame me for this but besides the "opinion" shows they really do report the news even better than CNN, IMHO.
They have the two most conservative people, Joe and Pat, give them ample air time, because they are not "afraid" to let them voice their opinions.
Because Joe and Pat ARE SMART and well educated (a little crazy sometimes) and bringing this dissent to the liberal worldview is a healthy thing and
it encourages great discussions.
BTW, The Daily Show (and now Colbert) like saved my life during adolescence.
