Dylan Ratigan on MSNBC absolutely kicks butt!

This guy refused to let the grand potentate of the Teabagger movement off the hook. Dylan refused to let the teabagger smear him and go on spreading his bogus propaganda. He actually cut the guy off when he made an unsupported, invalid argument!

I'm so used to, "Well we have to leave it there" journalism, after a righty makes a false allegation, or spreads misinformation - unchallenged.
:patriot:

4. I don't know how many times I've wished these blowhards got theor free airtime unplugged
God, it almost gives me new hope! MSNBC is a saving grace for America, IMHO. Look for Rahm Emanuel to call him a retard soon.

5. I haven't watched, but I like Dylan. KR
What's funny is that some DUers claim that Dylan is a teabagger. I'm not joking. :crazy:

12. That's a pretty good way to put it - the "well, we have to leave it there" journalism.
It also could be called LAZY-ASS journalism, or hidden-bias journalism, or no-responsibility journalism. The "we report you decide" journalism - that ALWAYS leads to the same never-asked/always-unanswered question: "what did you choose to report, and how did you choose to slant it?"

14. Very different from the- "I'm just asking" suggestive journalism
Fox news leads their sheeple right off a cliff with their 'just asking' suggestion journalism. AKA propaganda.
