This morning, the person subbing for Tamron Hall said "There is no god but god and Mahomed is his prophet is apparently the first pillar of Islam""

Apparently ? She is not sure? What about MSNBC making sure that their anchor have some basic knowledge. And it is even worse when it is print : MSNBC had a scroll a few days ago stating that Obama had a "soar throat" due to "refulx". It took them nearly an hour to correct "soar" and they still left the second typo.
