MSNBC is giving Clinton's Cheerleader a heck of a public pep talk.

Did you see the promo about Clinton's Cheerleader, Ms. Selective Outrage, Rachael Maddow they played this morning?

I'd be surprised if she doesn't get nominated for some type of award (after all, Jonathan Capehart, that bastion of journalistic integrity has a Pulitzer).

I guess they can't have their corporate sell-outs begin to question what role they are playing in carrying out the corporate agenda.

She asked Weaver about the NYDN cover. Bernie supporters on DU were up in arms, but she was fair and gave him a chance to respond.
