ya only a minimum of 3 million more liberals than right wingers so what does MSNBC do oh they bring on another Fox right winger. Just what the liberals need.

Note when Chenc Uber or what ever his name was was on for a few months he was the firstperson in any cable network to beat fox in any demographic and what did msnbc do talk to him about toning it down and when he wouldn't they did not hire him to work the slot full time.

ELECTION 2016
The Trump Story the Media Dare Not Utter
Quote:
The numbers are easy to find online Trump got between $2 and $3 billion in free media coverage, while Hillary struggled to break into the evening news, and Bernie was largely ignored until the final months of the Democratic primary.

And it's not a secret: Les Moonves, the Executive Chairman and CEO of CBS, said, as reported by the Hollywood Reporter about Trump's candidacy: "It may not be good for America, but it's damn good for CBS." He added: “Donald's place in this election is a good thing. … Man, who would have expected the ride we're all having right now? ... The money's rolling in and this is fun... I've never seen anything like this, and this going to be a very good year for us. Sorry. It's a terrible thing to say. But, bring it on, Donald. Keep going.”

The networks – whose first priority since Reagan killed the Fairness Doctrine is profitability rather than informing the public – are no doubt salivating about the next 4 years of daily eruptions from the White House. They're clearly betting The Donald Trump Reality Show - POTUS Version will provide an ongoing revenue stream, whereas a Hillary presidency would merely have been competent and boring, and thus not as profitable for the media.

Which raises an important question in this post-Fairness Doctrine, post-consolidation media landscape in the United States.

right wingers caught trying to pay people to incite violence during trump inauguration. Up to $100,000... Why isn't this all over the media. Specially when Trump was a funder of this group.

Counter-Sting Catches James O'Keefe Network Attempting To Sow Chaos At Trump's Inauguration
Quote:

UPDATE: A longer video of the interaction between Project Veritas operative Allison Maass and Ryan Clayton of Americans Take Action was posted online Tuesday. In it, Clayton confirms with Maass that her goal is indeed to incite a riot at the inauguration. “What you’re asking for, let’s bullet point it,” Clayton says, referring to the donor Maass claims to be representing. “He says, I’ll give you $100,000 to shut down a bridge, incite a riot and make sure we hack the media narrative on the inauguration.”

trumps proposed head of the FCC certainly will destroy net neutrality.

Politically this is huge. The sites that can afford to be in the fast lane will have a huge advantage.

The Most Dangerous Bill You’ve Never Heard Of Just Passed The House

Quote:
Last, week, under the cover of a media bliss-out except among Koch funded right-wing channels, the House of Representatives passed a bill which would effectively repeal future standard setting under every important environmental, public health, consumer protection, labor standards, occupational safety and civil rights law on the books.

needless to say you will not see this all over the media, and look at how fundamentally important this is...


https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/27/us/intelligence-gained-from-somali-terrorist-shows-value-of-civilian-prosecutions.html?emc=edit_th_20170128&nl=todaysheadlines&nlid=43747607

Quote:
WASHINGTON — One day in 2011, the top prosecutor in the system of military commissions set up after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks to prosecute terrorists traveled to New York for a special meeting with Justice Department officials. A Somali terrorist, Ahmed Abdulkadir Warsame, was being held aboard an American warship after being captured in international waters off Yemen, and the official, John F. Murphy, wanted him tried at Guantánamo Bay before a military commission.

In an early test of President Barack Obama’s belief that international terrorists could be successfully prosecuted in the criminal courts, Mr. Murphy was overruled. Mr. Warsame was prosecuted in federal court in Manhattan, and after pleading guilty to providing material support to the Shabab and Al Qaeda in Yemen and to other charges, he became one of the nation’s most important terrorism informants.

To Justice Department and F.B.I. officials, their success in prosecuting Mr. Warsame and eliciting important information from him was proof that an alternative legal system was not needed to keep America safe from terrorism. But that belief — a founding principle of Mr. Obama’s national security strategy — is about to be challenged by his successor, President Trump.

Senator Jeff Sessions of Alabama, Mr. Trump’s nominee for attorney general, has long believed that the Obama administration sacrificed valuable intelligence by bringing terrorism cases in federal court. Along with other Republicans in Congress, he has argued that the isolated military prison at Guantánamo is where such terrorists should be sent and tried.

Mr. Trump is expected to formally endorse that view with an executive order keeping Guantánamo open and then fill it with “bad dudes,” as he has put it.

Hmm, weren't private servers a campaign issue used to attack Hillary?

Quote:
Senior Trump administration staffers, including Kellyanne Conway, Jared Kushner, Sean Spicer and Steve Bannon, had until Wednesday active accounts on a Republican National Committee (RNC) email system, Newsweek has learned.

The system (rnchq.org) is the same one the George W. Bush administration was accused of using to evade transparency rules after claiming to have “lost” 22 million emails.

One more nail in this thread's coffin: Facebook employees, which brainless millennials say is their primary news source, ADMIT censoring conservative viewpoints and news.
