1. I stopped watching after they fired most of the progressive commentators

Guess the ones that remain have made the decision that they don't want to give up their well-compensated lifestyle.

I mean how do you go from taking progressive stances to featuring Trump and other repug shills 24/7?

Rachel, Hayes, even Tweety Bird go get other jobs. Maybe not as lucrative, which is I guess is why they stay.

Sorry but it makes me think less of them.

2. MSNBC is a lost cause

Just cut your cable. That is what will end this media idiocy.

Rachel (whom I listen to the next day in Stircher sometimes) just repeats herself like she's talking to 3d graders. The rest of them are all Trump all the time.

The median age of their viewers (as for all cable news and broadcast news) is over 60. All the ads are for old people's pharmaceuticals. Most are unpaid PSAs.

I give MSNBC another year in business. They stand for nothing and have very few viewers.

Chris let Santorum get away with equating the Occupy Wall Street movement with the Bundy assholes plus he gave Ricky the nod when talking about Oregon and the claim of "overreaching" court action against the Hammonds.

Hayes is a sellout.
