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.

46. 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.

47. Sarah Palin has 13 years of administrative experience. Obama has ZERO.

She has been to Iraq as many times as Obama and has a son going there soon i the Army.

She has run a state with an 80% approval rating. Obama is in the Senate which has a 20% approval rating.

She's running for vice president.He's running for president. Do the math.

As for MSNBC, they need to fire Olberman and change their tune. Mathews can go back to being less partisan but Olderman is a lost cause.

It's hilarious to see all the Demo-zombies on here defending the indefensible.

48. Olbermann is an ignorant blowhard. He's bringing that channel to it's demise. His ego is so off-the-charts. But, did you read the scoop a couple of months ago about a former girlfriend who said he was no good in bed? Easy to believe - it's all about HIM.

49. What about Fox news which print lie after lie and use their key words to blame Obama for everything. Fox is owned by by republicans who spew their hate. TMZ you suck the a$$ of murdoch

50. Is MSNBC on the air still?

We haven't watched since what they did to Hillary Clinton. It has been no loss. All these guys have grating shrill voices, they are whiny and stupid and unattractive and old. Think they are being provocative, it is sad. There are no journalistic standards anymore. Tom Brokaw is the only worthwhile voice at NBC and even he of late has become a bit irritating (NBC must be pressuring him to be sensationalistic.)

In all fairness, CNN is also ridiculously bad, and we stopped watching CNN because of what they did to Sen. Clinton, too.

Since dropping these 2 cable "news" channels, we have actually become better informed.

55. I cannot and will not watch this station. I have flipped channels and watched it for a minute or two and it is so completely biased it makes you vomit. Olbermann used to be a sportscaster at ESPN, and I think he needs to go back and do that or maybe be a street sweeper.

56. Hey TMZ....wake up! The economy is bad and the people "whining" are the people who are sick of the last 7+ years of lies and good ole boys running this country. If MSNBC is becoming a hate Bush cable net then more power to them. Hmmmm lets see who TMZ is owned by..FOX!!! The most conservative network out there. Take your heads out of your a****s. This country is in bad shape because of GW Bush.

57. Gov. Sara Palin is also a wolf killing, polar bear hating, right wing, drill, drill, drill, creationism, pro life even in the event of rape or family rape of a teenage girl, of little experience who would be a heart beat away from being the one to take the phone call from Putin at 3 AM! Heaven help us if she gets elected. Even if you hate Senator OBAMA, you must elect him to keep Gov Palin out of office.

58. I can't believe people would ditch against MSNBC and love!!! Fix News! please I love my MSNBC anchors especially Chris Mathews and Keith Olbermann. the only one I can't stand! and can't even watch for 5 minutes is the Joe Scarborough, he thinks he is so smart etc. MSNBC have a couple of Die hard Republicans always feature in their shows someone like Pat Buchanan who always finds something wrong with obama. lol

59. These guy place to much importance on themselves. They should report the news and shut up. We are not stepford citizens.
We can understand what the politicians are saying and decide who we will vote for. When a speech is given, right after it ends they all will tell us what was said and I will tell you this, more times than not the will say things that were not even said. Boldly right there they make stuff up. Am I the only one that sees this?

60. Interesting. So if you're not a conservative douchebag like the morons on Fox, you're a "whiner"? Thanks, TMZers, you just told us a whole lot about yourselves.
