MSNBC is a real piece of work.

Lefties losing it: Jon Stewart ridicules MSNBC ‘meltdown’ over Joe Biden decal (youtube.com) "Sky News host Rita Panahi reacts to footage of The Daily Show host Jon Stewart “actually being funny”.

"Mr Stewart lampooned MSNBC for refusing to show a “disturbing” image of Joe Biden being tied up on a pickup truck decal. "Just earlier this month, much of the media in the US had an absolute meltdown about an obviously doctored image – a meme basically – on the back of a pickup truck,” Ms Panahi said. “Can’t imagine why people have lost trust in the media – even Jon Stewart has lost faith.”


MSNBC DESTROYS Jen Psaki Trying To Spin Biden Freefall   "MSNBC can't cover up that voters are waffling to side with Donald Trump - yet Psaki tries to claim President Biden stands for the 'ideals of the greatest generation'. Talk is cheap as the past 4 years of the Biden Administration has shown quite the opposite in a huge push of progressive non-sense. People are waking up and not buying into the garbage being hurled. The current administration is failing and it's just rolling out the red carpet for President Trump to get back into power."

A news network where not one employee appears to have ever had a desire to be a reputable, trusted journalist: Chris Hayes, Nicolle Wallace, Rachael Maddow, Joy Reid, Lawrence O'Donnell tear into anyone not a leftist. TD

. . ."Analysis / Bias

"In review, MSNBC uses strong emotionally loaded headlines such as this “GOP senator says he’s ‘concerned’ Trump was ‘involved in a crime” and “Cohen gets 3 years in jail for covering up Trump’s ‘dirty deeds’”. Generally, story selection favors the Left; however, they are also occasionally criticized by left-leaning organizations. For example, according to Fair.org, MSNBC did not dedicate much airtime to the West Virginia Teachers Strike until the fair.org article was published. Further, Salon published an article criticizing MSNBC for employing the “Republican Never Trump” type of conservatives.

"According to the article, they are “Loading up on semi-repentant conservatives and ignoring the activist left, MSNBC is doing the nation a disservice.” In other words, MSNBC is so focused on negative coverage of Donald Trump that they are ignoring the progressive left and actually moving right. However, as a whole, according to Pew Research Center, MSNBC is favored by a liberal audience, which indicates content and story selection tends to lean left to appeal to their core viewers. Further, MSNBC frequently reports negatively on progressive candidates.  Lastly, in a 2018 survey conducted by the Knight Foundation/Gallup, they found that the public rates MSNBC the 3rd most biased media source (left) behind Fox News and Breitbart (right).

"When reporting news, MSNBC mainly provides video clips from reporters in the field. Text-based news comes directly from the Left-Center NBC News website. When reporting straight news stories, MSNBC is highly factual and well-sourced. They use NBC News as their primary source; however, due to some of the guest political pundits spreading misinformation on their daily programs, we cannot rate MSNBC High for factual reporting on the whole." . .  .
