I watch these people endlessly so that I can catch them every time they show some form of bias. I yell at the tv and post it instantly here.

No I don't.

I do not watch televised news. Sorry.

It's the only thing that get's her any attention or readers any more. Her column is a snooze unless she is crabbing about the President. Without him she wouldn't have a job.

shows any more. They went away when the networks made the news a profit center. Now it is pure entertainment just like the reality shows.
I get all my news on line. I was aware when we had Eward R Murrow.
Last night I turned off The Last Word to watch a movie titled "The Human Stain".
It was a very good movie and I felt better informed after having watched it.

Because like the Paul family, Ron and Rand, they hide their true intentions unless one
delves into a history of them and they are trying to fracture the democratic party when they themselves have $$$ulterior$$$ motives.

the rightwing ones are known
it's the posers who are 3rd party that are the least unbalanced and unfair
They hate Barack Obama from day one, yet pretend to like him.
NO, they never did.

Same with the bitter Maureen Dowd.

instead of going adhom to sway the facebook likes

YES, I am sincere.
President Obama, Clinton, Hillary, LBJ, Carter never lied to me.

while one or two may have mispoke, it wasn't malicious or with ulterior motives with a negatory $$ulterior motive sense.

He was quick to jump to conclusions about the faux IRS debacle; however, so did Obama.

Talk about being played by the GOP/TP...

Joe Kernen, Michelle Caruso-Cabrera, Larry Kudlow, Rick Santelli, any of the options jokers on "Fast Money", Maria Bartiromo, Jim Cramer, Brian Sullivan, etc. Anyone who calls this station "left-leaning" is about as big an idiot walking as Joe Kernen is a neo-fascist. CNBC is a walking, talking, narrative-pushing propaganda arm of the Republican party . . . one of two they have.

CNBC is also a breeding ground for laissez-fail princesses who go on to other stations (mostly Faux, Faux Business and CNN, which we call "Fox Jr.&quot with their toxic narratives intact. This would be Erin Beijing Banker Blower Burnett, Missy Francis, Trish Regan (a Goldman Sachs alum), Dennis Kneale, Chuckles Gasparino and Eric Bolling.

I dont even know where to start. Ever since his role in the whole Plame affair all his credibility went bye-bye. I cant count how many times he lied of MTP. He's a Karl Rove "groupie" that spouts right wing talking points, the man has no integrity and should never be considered as being fair and balanced when obviously he's quite the opposite. In my opinion David Gregory is nothing but a republican shill.
