It's My Party and I'll Be a Little Bitch If I Want To

The folks at MSNBC wants us to make them the place to get our info on one of the most important decisions ever. Turns out we're getting that info from a bunch of whiney, back-stabbing, petty anchors.
MSNBC
An epic feud has erupted on the air between Joe Scarborough, Keith Olbermann, Chris Matthews and David Shuster. They're all accusing each other of being bias, partisan and all around D-bags. They can no longer hide their contempt for each other on the air. The deal is that Scarborough is odd man out because he's a former Republican congressman. The others are known Democrats, except for Shuster, who claims he's never had an affiliation with anything except Just For Men haircare.

The New York Post is quoting sources who say Tom Brokaw is disgusted at MSNBC's play to make it itself the official We Hate George W. Bush cable net.

MSNBC's move comes years after FOX figured out that it could score big ratings by aligning itself with die-hard conservatives. MSNBC is now making the same play with whiners -- a large faction in this country that believes the economy is in bad shape.

31. Missing that wonderful soul known as Tim Russert.

32. ‘Love, love, love Scarborough and Matthews. At least they have the background to back up their opinions. Olberman does not….He is an angry PIG. (I have to censor myself here) So, when he is on, I turn off. I think they are all auditioning for Russert’s place in our hearts. It a’int gonna happen, though. Too bad, because I think NBC probably was one of the better news operations out there.

34. I'd rather watch the hot babes on FOX lie, than the ugly women at MSNBC!

35. Fox leans to the right but they have both liberals & conservatives on while MSNBC just loves Obama. As Matthews said of Obama, he gets all tingled & that is suppose to be fair reporting. I watch mostly Fox because whenever I try to watch MSNBC they sickened me. I like Joe but he better get out of there because Olbermann was to blame for getting rid of Abrams & I wouldn't be surprise if Joe is next. Obie admitted it. I just hope he gets his someday.
I do like Brokaw & Williams & they shouldn't appear on MSNBC until those little kids grow up.

36. LOL Carmen. I go for Obama, but gimme a break. We'll see.

37. I actually enjoy Olberman and I do enjoy his left leanings. It is a breath of fresh air to me after O'Reily and Fox allusion to Fair and Balanced reporting.

All I wanted to do during the DNC was to give Chris Mathews a comb, what was UP with his hair?

38. Ummm you do know that the guy who owns the NYT is the same guy that owns fox news and the owner of Fox News HATES MSNBC. So its not that much of a suprise that the NYT is airing a story like this to try to discredit MSNBC.

Maybe if we had strong anti bush media after 9/11 we wouldnt be in Iraq.

39. Keith Olbermann is brilliant!

Tom Brokaw is irrelevant. That dinosaur doesn't need to be on MSNBC. Nobody watches MSNBC to see Brokaw.

TMZ - the NY POST is owned by Newscorp = Rupert Murdock - hey, don't they own you too??

Viva le KEITH!

40. How much did O'Reilly or one of the big wigs at Faux News pay you all to post this crap?


And yes, it is said that Palin's last child is in fact her underaged daughters. No one knew Sarah was pregnant, not even her staffters and just so happened her underaged daughter was out of high school for some months because of mono. People around her even said that she never looked pregnant. This needs to be exposed because if this was Obama's daughter or someone affiliated with him, it would be all over the news.

41. I STOPPED WATCHING MSNBC 4 YEARS AGO JUST BECAUSE THE NEGATIVITY AND UNCONTROLLED HATE FROM THEIR ANCHORS.
VERY UNPROFESSIONAL INDIVIDUALS WHO INSTEAD OF REPORTING, THEY WANT TO IMPOSE TO THE VIEWERS THEIR OWN BELIEF.
I GUESS, FREEDOM IN AMERICA IS ONLY FOR THE LIBERALS.
OLBERMANN IS A NASTY GUY AND NO ONE IS GOING TO MISS HIM WHEN HE'S GONE FOR GOOD.
FANATICISM IS ALWAYS VERY DANGEROUS!!

42. KO, how nice that extreme hatred is a breath of fresh air for you. Sick mother effer.

Posted at 3:22PM on Aug 30th 2008 by WTF is wrong with you people?

44. by the way, if MSNBC wants to make itself the official I "hate george bush" network that is just super with me because they are preaching to the choir. There's reason Fox News ratings have dropped the conservatives they preach to are fewer because of how badly the Republicans have botched our country and the world's perception of us.

45. So TMZ you are sinking to the lowest of lows and are quoting the NY Post. OK just like the Will Smith supporting Hitler reporting which you dived in you will be printing a retraction albeit a second hand retracting for this story. Keep on going because pretty soon you will be on the wrong side of a Law Suit and I hope they hit you folks so hard that you piss yourself!
