Just finished watching Alicia Menendez/MSNBC presentation on US White Christian Nationalism [View all]

Pardon my rant.

Guys, friends, old pals — aside from being sick to my stomach and scared spitless (and I am a person who has enough background to actually know this threat exists) I do want to draw your attention to the fact that this is on the much-maligned MSM and the increasingly-maligned MSNBC.

The presentation by Alicia M. included who, what, where, when, and why. Find it. Watch it. Take notes.

So you “hate” Katy Tur and the way she talks. So you “can’t stand” Andrea Mitchell and think she should have retired decades ago. So you swear you’ll never watch MSNBC again because someone else said something you disagree with in a vocal tone you can’t abide.

Really? It’s a cable station that runs 24/7. Pick and choose. I certainly don’t have it on all the time — but there are people who are reliable and the recorder works fine so I have the option of seeing the presenters & panels I prefer.

If you choose to get your news elsewhere — I understand. But please stop saying “nobody” in the MSM tells you what’s really going on.

Rant off. I’m going back to my recorded episode of Deadline Whitehouse.
