Press, incl MSNBC, is pissing me off big time

[peaches2003]

They are not reporting what is going on, they are determining the results. Listening to MSNBC this morning it is only getting worse. They are commenting as if every result is a foregone conclusion, practically calling J Boner "Mr. Speaker". You know how the average American sheeple voter takes this- Dems won't bother to vote and Repugs/Tea Baggers will be out and about voting just to show their arrogance that they already are called the winners. I am totally disgusted, esp with MSNBC. They are insuring a Repug/TBagger victory everywhere.

1. I noticed this on the radio, people were already conceding despite early voting numbers and other

...polls suggesting otherwise.

Maybe its a GOP set up, if the GOP doesn't landslide then they'll have egg on their faces too...

2. Change channels or turn it off.

Or yell and throw things at the TV.

It's your choice.

11. check out the cooking channel ....

or Science Channel is having a "Meteorite Men" marathon -- makes me want to run out and get a metal detector.

:hi:

[City Lights]

3. Turn it off.

msnbc has nothing of value to add to the conversation.

4. It is annoying. Too bad there are not 100 clones of Rachel Maddow, she is one of the few who

does actual well researched hard reporting on Republican shenanigans.

5. STOP watching the fucking thing than I havn't watched TV in two days

because of the bias it's CRAZY!!!!

[Jackpine Radical]

12. I haven't watched to any significant degree since 1962.

You pay a minor price of not knowing what people are talking about half the time, but if they're talking about shit they saw on TV, it's not worth listening to anyway.

6. I heard a guy on the radio the other day say that MSNBC

was *always* supporting the Democrats, while FOX was "mostly" supporting the Republicans.

7. turn it off. quit watching that crap.

[asjr]

8. For a long time I have felt the media

are our worst enemy. The only TV I will watch today is Food channel and HGTV. If I watched any of the cable news programs my blood pressure would go off the roof. This is the lowest I have ever felt about our country and what it will become. My only weapon is not watching.

9. NPR this morning:

"Democrats are expecting some big losses..."

:wtf:

:mad:

Ahem -- not THIS fucking Democrat!

[bullwinkle428]

13. Fistbump, for reporting on NPR's propaganda efforts almost simultaneously!

:fistbump:

[Blue Owl]

15. You said it!

:toast:

[kwolf68]

17. NPR is right though

Dems are quietly expecting a blowout. It's just their base is more energized and indies are moving to the Repukkes.

This 'last minute surge' talk is just propaganda to fire up the Dem base, nothing more than a cosmetic score in a blowout.

[bullwinkle428]

10. NPR : "HUGE Republican tide, meaning that Democrats are getting swept away"

:banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

[Arkana]

14. Stop watching them and get your election results from the Internet instead.

[Lost-in-FL]

16. Go get a book.

Turn the TV off, read the book. Come back to turn on Rachel and DU tonight.

[krkaufman]

18. Yeah, I turned MSNBC off after only a moment of watching

Jansen was on with Pataki, and did NOTHING when Pataki spouted the b-s that Obama "shoved health care down the public's throat" and that the public was against the health care legislation. NO ONE countered Pataki; no one asked him on what he was basing his view.

It gets said and not challenged, and so anyone watching will assume that it is fact. Oh, yeah, MSNBC is sooooo liberal, to the same degree that rFNC is conservative. Ridiculous.
