As left as rich, corporate media allows, on the corporate ideological spectrum.

We talk about limited issues, we omit issues like onerous trade agreements, the debt they've caused due to 25 million lost jobs over 30 years, or futile wars of aggression, or the killing of the death penalty. We obsess like the rest of the networks, over things like Bergdahl, while we're still stewing in a huge unemployment crisis, and have yet to do anything about it. We talk about gays, guns, and abortion, like the rest. We serve as a repeater for FOX, at times, rather than forging out into issues that actually help the left. We put on shows that are completely right wing.

On the weekends, we completely remove most political shows, putting a bunch of prisoners on air, during the time when most people could actually watch political shows.

MSNBC is "left?" you say? Why is that? FOX pushes ever further right. MSNBC gets dragged along with them, never taking a chance to anger their corporate benefactors.

but he is heads above the asshat Joe!

...throw in Chuck Todd

person is in the room because some wingnut adult is watching Fox and similar cases where some non political types might hear something that isn't so hateful.

for FOX. Is Shepard exempt from the meetings? Perhaps it's FOX's way of pretending they're open to all points of view .. and Shep just happens to be their one of few (notable) token gays? FOX couldn't handle two Prima Donnas with the likes of Scarborough and O'Reilly .. my god there'd be a cat fight for sure.

after this. He'd better update his resume.

Gotta give the guy credit when he goes against the Fox political script of the day.

I'll always remember his genuine dismay at the conditions he saw in New Orleans immediately after Katrina.
He'll never get anywhere on Fox because of his basic decency.

failures to provide help.

No opinion pieces of any consequence.

get their meals at the nursing home.

but Shep, everyone on Foxville knows that "not eating BBQ or drinking beer" is definitive proof of a planned desertion.

A reasonable argument being advanced on Faux Snooze is major news! Didn't know anyone there had that capability.

Maybe he has something on O'Reilly or Ailes because it's mystifying, for more than one reason, why they still put him on. Maybe MSNBC could swap Scarborough for Smith? They would both fit better on the other's station.

Thanks for the thread, kpete.

He's got to be getting sick of that gig. Even if they pay well, what price one's integrity?

Actually.... we'd have to negotiate with the terrorists at Faux News, and the bad guy would be pretty bad, but...

MSNBC should be in negotiations to swap Joe Scar for Shep

asap

This country is becoming stratified between the haves and the have nots. Killing net neutrality is just another fuck you aimed at the working class.

We see the rich get away with nearly destroying our economy, billionaires and their children can rape and kill, but never have to pay the price. We see the rich getting tax breaks, and the working class get their wages cut, services cut, and pensions raided. What kind of message are you and the other members of the oligarch sending to us?
