So yes everything has to be a damn show.

Joining various internet forums and groups.
Watching you tube videos.

You will see what I mean.

Most things are now presented only in childlike entertainment form.
Short entertaining sound bites.

Talk to undergraduate college professors.
They will tell you.

Stephanie Miller, Thom Hartmann, and Randi Rhodes cover my 9-5 ET news junky requirements.

Don’t get MSNBC until late in the evening or next morning.

Working out ok.

I know most of the voices right now :/

I've been watching it for an hour and a half and don't see any reason to stop. Please explain your post.

When he dogged Hillary in 2015, and said in so many words that there's 'little' difference between her and tRump

Trump enabler Eddie Glaude.

I thought it just me.

I've noticed, though, MSNBC doesn't have him on as often as they once did. I'm thankful for that.

As an aside: I dislike posts like this OP. If you can't give us context, please don't post at all.

was as bad a candidate as orange clown. Pfffft

Take it for what it is. One guy's (flawed) opinion. And he said both candidates were weak, not just Joe.

That is what set me off. If the guy was trying to be helpful, he needs to go back to the drawing board.

Just a thought.

disadvantageous to my candidate. But guess by omission, it lives :/

Rethug party. But he just couldn’t help himself today.

Without supplying information on what you were watching and the program that offended you, you are just doing the "throw the spaghetti" approach.

and add another text that passes it on. If that's trolling, I'm guilty.

I listen on Tune-In, don't see faces, and don't recognize every voice. I got home, turned on my laptop, linked to Tune-In, and that was the first, only sentence I heard, shut it off.

I'm sorry to assume that everyone is tuned in to and in the same moment. Won't happen again.

It's a hard environment where we all have to be correct all the time.

God knows I'm the biggest failure in that department!

but I don't live up to the mark. But I really don't want to make a text that someone or something can use out of context.

and not an opinion. I totally disagree and it is the kind of opinion and reaction that you'd expect to hear from a fox guest/host, but why let it pass unchallenged on msnbc?

The guest said that Biden was blah blah and sometimes voters want to get blah blah guy out of office even if the alternative is distasteful. I shut it off and I'm not dignifying the comment with a complete paraphrase here.

President Biden is about as weak as a lion on steroids. But when idiots like whoever it was get away with stating their opinion as fact and the host lets it pass, people not in President Biden's camp might think it's a true fact and bam, they get another vote for traitor, or kennedy, or a stay home, no vote at all.

I don't expect blind devotion to President Biden. It is sickening to see rwnj blindly accept their traitor leader. But, if I don't like something President Biden says or does, I don't jump on television and blather about it. And if I'm trying to advance my political or media career, I sure wouldn't dis the best hope this country has to defeat traitor with one hand and keep the country headed forward with the other.

What we have going on in this country and across the world is crazy and sometimes I let it get to me.

He's not given to allowing wild statements. But again, the speaker was a Republican. Pundits are there to give opinion. Doesn't mean we have to believe them. (And I don't. Not a pundit fan.)

Many of the hosts strike me as unprepared for the guests they invite. Do not ask questions that might be enlightening. Do not challenge their guests who opine based on who knows what data.

Just strikes me as lazy or incompetent. Very disappointing.

I don’t watch looking for confirmation of my own biases, although I know I am as limited as anyone. I do hope a host or guest has something informative or interesting. Too much of neither.

I agree

Good enough for me. That's why I don't watch TV.

It takes only one asshole to ruin your entire day.

And there's such an abundance!

Peace, and DU!

I will work on my manners

The guest who made the offensive remarks is Republican Mike Murphy, political gadfly. The fill in host is Michael Steele, former Lt. Governor of Maryland and former RNC chair. I really like Michael Steele and he’s a credible host, but he’s no Nicole Wallace. Nicole would not have let Murphy’s remarks stand uncontested.

I don't know if I gain anything by listening to people formerly known as republicans discussing strategy on how to get their party back. I'd rather be hearing about what Dems are doing to GOTV.

He is a very old school republican political consultant. There was a time when I would have found him intolerable, but I suppose all things are relative and in today's Trump/MAGA environment, he almost seems reasonable. Nonetheless, he still is who he used to be, irritating and insincere. He's just not batshit crazy I suppose.

I wouldn't have expected a reasonable comment about Biden or Democrats, but it's not a huge deal. We rarely see him on TV anymore these days anyway.

Here's hoping that Joy and Jen and Rachel aren't absent.


.

BTW, it looks like Melber is gone again. Still.

It is their fault for what they say.

where I can skip the ads and chose what I like. It frees up my time. It sucks to watch in disappointment.

he publicly declared that he wouldn’t vote for Clinton, encouraging others not to and spent most of the year attacking her while hardly criticizing Trump.

Doesn’t matter that he was in a blue state or not.

Fucking TSF enabler.

After last year's Supreme Court decision that effectively ended affirmative action, Glaude's name and bio were removed from the Time magazine opinion piece.

Professor Glaude needs a bigger eraser. His name is still in the link to his asshattery now ascribed to a "Times Staff" byline.

Why do you keep watching MSNBC since it upsets you?

I read plenty of news on DU and I am grateful that so many people collect and share news stories. I guess I tune into msnbc to get a different slant on stories I read here.

I didn't have any temper tantrums listening to Rachel Maddow or Lawrence O'Donnell last night Guess that'll have to satisfy me for the week.

I think I picked up bad habits from my great aunt. My great aunt lived with us after she had a stroke and she'd absolutely rave at the television. We could hear her all through the house. And that was in the 1960s! I haven't had a stroke yet, but I'm skating on thin ice.

Until Nicole Wallace comes on. From then through the evening, it's mostly watchable.

YouTube has become a viewing portal for me because I get to pick and choose from an endless catalog of videos.

Regardless, I'll keep reading your posts on DU!

I don't watch any of the msnbc hosts until Nicole Wallace. It took me a long time to tune in to her, because of her r. background. But she reports news and comments on the stories. As for evening shows, I used to watch from 7-11, but not any longer. If I'm hyperalert because of current events, I'm not ready to sign a peace treaty with the political views that got us here. There may be a time in the future that I will look for things to agree on and move forward, just not right now. So when I tune in to that last media that I relied on to report and discuss from my side of politics, I can't help being very disappointed to hear them dis our side.

I rely on You Tube. I listen to old radio shows and watch history and science documentaries. I have a television, had it on the other day for the first time since last fall. Cut cable tv about 4 years ago.

I still don’t understand what the OP was upset about. Can you provide some detail about the actual statement that caused you to turn off the news? Hard to discuss without that critical piece of info.

and then not willing to say what exactly it was made reading this entire thing a waste of time.

Nor until Nicole, Ari, and Joy come on is it watchable. And after than it can suck you in for the rest of the night! But I only allow myself 2 hours a night.

let me find my crystal ball so I can figure out the context

I had to go to the store.
