Clinton campaign disavows MSNBC

[One Sweet World]

The Clinton campaign has had it with MSNBC's blatant misogynistic and skewed coverage. I'm no Hillary fan, but I give them props for their forceful pushback against this irresponsible tabloid network.

From The Washington Post:

Jay Carson, Clinton's press secretary, fired off an e-mail yesterday to Chuck Todd, NBC's political director. While assuring Todd that he was "not trying to be a jerk," Carson wrote: "Can you think of one good reason we should continue to cart you guys around the country with us, given that your network has declared the entire race over?"

This was not a serious threat to kick NBC reporters off the Clinton plane. Carson noted that he was just speaking "rhetorically" and, besides, news organizations pay stiff fees for their campaign travel. But it is a measure of the anger in Hillaryland toward the folks at MSNBC. A network spokesman declined to respond.

1. How dare a network report the truth! Off with their heads!

10. If the race is over, what are they doing on the plane?

Don't they have other stories to cover?

12. Seeing a Senator and former first lady make a fool of herself, is unfortunately something that could

pass for news, in this day and age.

2. Working the refs late in the game and trailing badly - what's new?

5. MSNBC finally stopped playing the game of pretending Hillary was

almost tied with Obama and had a realistic chance--and the Hillary camp no likey. Now if only CNN would, too...

6. It's clear who the Clinton News Network supports

And it's clear that MSNBC loves Obama. What I want is some journalistic integrity.

13. They loved him so much, they had hour-long specials on Rev. Wright

immediately before the last two primaries.

8. Whenever someone starts a letter with the phrase...

..."I'm not trying to be a jerk..." I see it as a signal to expect mega-jerkiness.

9. Hillary is pissed because they stopped the 24/7 Wright coverage

:cry:

11. Yep, NBC's only good enough when Clinton wants something from

them, like free airtime. :eyes:

14. MSNBC has been in the tank for Obama for a long time.

We need ALL of this blatant partisanship by our media stopped. It only seems BO supporters want it stopped when it is their candidate that is on the receiving end. MSNBC has turned in FOX. Neither of them deserve to be watched.

15. GO read this post

and come back and tell me there is NO!!!! difference between faux news and MSNBC. WE, meaning Democrats, need a network with the guts to allow KO to tell the truth about the War Criminals in this fucked up administration, not cheer it on like the fucking dittoheads over at faux.
WE have to win back the WH in Nov, period!
