[Nyan]

Cenk Uygur, John Iadarola, and Jimmy Dore discuss Melissa Harris-Perry leaving MSNBC, as they hire former Ted Cruz campaign staff to take her place.

1. Fact!

2. MSNBC wants to be Trump friendly and Sanders and Clinton averse, election season

Once again; they fire their best Liberal reporters. And in the morning; Joe Scar is there to play footsie with the likes of Trump

3. Let's throw a boycott party for main stream media

do not watch any news shows at all, ignore them, talk to your friends and family, post on FB, twitter etc., shut their ratings down. Fox will win the ratings, but who cares about Fox and their viewers. Tell them we want honest un-biased reporting and get rid of all these over paid know nothing pundits, we need the Fairness Doctrine back.

6. No news show at all?

How can you stay informed if you do not watch any news shows. Five corporations own 95% of ALL news outlets (television stations, radio stations, newspapers, magazines, etc.)
If for no other reason, you have to watch them just to know what they are up to. Just be aware they are biased propaganda outlets for the corporations.
One of the biggest problems we have in this country is ignorance of current events and politics.

8. I can see 1996 Tele-communications Act doing wonders

For you and your cronies. Good on you, Bill. Good on you.

4. Try RT America, or Free Speech Television. Both have progress formats.

Ed Schultz is on M-T at 7PM on RT and Ring of Fire is on Free Speech with Mike Papantonio, Farron Cousins and Sam Seder.

5. I have them allin my favorites

Love them all.

7. These days remind me of Gorvachev saying

"America needs Perestroika." I think he's right.

16. Also, let's not forget Thom Hartmann's "The Big Picture" M-F 6pm CST and 9pm CST.

9. What about FSTV and Link? Some of us get these fine channels, but the others, I agree.

Sad Day, hope this changes in the near future.

10. I agree about FSTV but their viewership must be very low

Most cable won't carry them while they offer FOX SNOOZ in their basic package - CNN also.
I quit giving to other media and only give to FSTV now.

11. Americans are walking away from cable

internet has everything i need

The slant of MSM corporate news seems insanity once you get away from it

12. I'll watch Amy and Democracy Now!

MSNBC is useless.

[YOHABLO]

13. It really is astounding that there is no longer a progressive POV on television.

Actually the only progressive POV has to come from Comedy Central (Trevor Noah and Larry Wilmore) and if you're lucky to have HBO package, Bill Maher. It's just getting totally disgusting.

[Plucketeer]

14. Not all that astounding

when one considers who controls the conduits for television. T'would be nice if they offered information that might paint them in a less-than-perfect light, but America only understands winners and losers. You have to be one or the other - and who endeavors to be a loser?

15. "Speaking smalltalk to power"

Thank you, Jimmy Dore.
