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.

92. I watch MSNBC all the time. Fox is biased. I especially enjoy Verdict with Dan Abrams. I also listen to Bill O'Reilly even though I don't agree with his views. Mrs. Palin doesn't have the experience to lead the nation should John McCain not be able to be President. I'm voting Obama/Biden as I am impressed with both of them and it is a better choice then a 72 year old with a former beauty queen. I'm looking at the experience of the candidates.

93. The only thing MSNBC had going for it was Tim Russert during election times...since he's gone, there is absolutely no reason to watch it. Olbermann is a pathetic excuse for a news journalist..he is the most biased "anchor" I have ever tried to watch...I was once an NBC/MSNBC devotee and could hardly wait to hear the take on current events from Andrea, Tim, David Gregory and Chris....now, everyone is just so mean-spirited. MSNBC is UN-WATCHABLE....so, I don't! Andrea should move to another network...I miss her.

94. I am incredulous that people are complaining about MSNBC being biased. FOX NEWS has been cheerleading the Bush administration for the past eight years and people have the audacity to complain when the other side does it? Give me a break! Don't watch MSNBC go back to FOX NEWS and cheer Bush, McCain and the Republicans on in their B.S.

96. Add Jack Cafferty to that list of Obama-maniacs who just wanna rub their pasty faces all over the Obamassiah's spooge. When the Obamamessiah loses in a landslide (thans to McCain's brilliant VP pick) these guys are going to be soooo embarrassed they won't even want to do late night infomercials for Viagra, Extendze, or Depends.

98. Laine Zane, you're not very well informed, are you? Palin has more exec experience than Obama. Look it up.

99. Fox news is just as biased as msnbc. As an independent I honestly have trouble watching both. All the anchors provide their own snarky remarks. My biggest problem with Fox is that J.A. Hannity. (I actually enjoy watching O'Reilly-he at least lets the other person talk) At msnbc it's totally Olbermann. If you want true facts then dont watch either of them.

100. It's so unfortunate that a man like Olberman can destroy such a good network. Since he appeared on the scene he has started acting like he Owns NBC and he has the right to have people fired.. Even his buddy Mathews has started being scared of the foul.

101. I mainly watch MSNBC because I like to see Pat Buchanan. Also, I do find Chuck Todd, Howard Fineman, Jonathan Capehart, and a few other analysts very interesting.

102. Excuse the piss out of me? Americans are whiners for acknowledging that the economy sucks under GW???? NOT! Try being a bit more realistic next time TMZ aka Fox. My hubby lost his job when his entire company left the area. His line of work is being handled by Indians now - he's lucky to have a TEMPORARY job out of state. I'm retraining to be a teacher only there are no jobs available because the WAR has sucked the cities dry of any cash for teachers. And mall jobs or McDonalds? Nope, can't get them because the illegals already have them. So take your BS and shove it - we don't need it anymore, TMZ.

103. Looks like moose burger is back on the menu boys!

104. And PS: I would never watch Fox - it's filled with hatemongers who lie incessently about the economy and America and American beliefs - for the express purpose of pushing religious zealotry rivlaling that of the Muslims, as well as the uber rich. Thanks but no thanks. You can't fool all of the people all of the time, TMZ/Fox. Oh yeah, and why not stick to ENTERTAINMENT news instead of trying to push your BS about other political views?

105. The MSNBC anchors acted like little girls. MSNBC has passed Fox in female hottness, tho, thank almost single-handedly to Contessa. MSNBC also has lots of conservatives on. O'Reilly talks about keith a lot but doesn't say his name.
