62. I think you're missing my point.

Obviously, "no one" is not meant literally. Of course someone watches him, or he wouldn't be on the air.

I thought the anti-war march comparison would have made it pretty clear; the GOP-controlled media will make a big deal only out of that which will advance its agenda. MSNBC simply does not have the reach. If EVERY MSNBC program chose to report this story, and the other stations don't pick it, it won't have an impact. Al Sharpton can dance naked screaming from a rooftop, and the only thing they'd report is that crazy old Tawana Brawley guy from loony liberal MSNBC was dancing naked on a roof top -- the whys and wherefores won't matter, because the don't want them to matter.
