Be offended.

"we report on (out of context) excerpts"

At this point, pride in brainrot drives the compulsion to  waste time with left wing corporate media.

The only thing this video and post demonstrates is projection at work.

Saying something wrong and then issuing a correction the very next night is what having integrity looks like. Show me Trump getting a fact wrong and correcting it...

I thought so.

Then it shows Rachel Maddow talking about the vaccines being nearly 100% effective at stopping transmission. Ignorant Trump voters and vaccine conspiracy theorists find this damning because they are ignorant Trump voters and vaccine conspiracy theorists. If you knew anything about COVID and the vaccines you'd know that the first vaccines were nearly 100% effective and then the virus quickly mutated. Because that's what viruses do. The effectiveness quickly dropped but remained remarkably effective.

The last one was Joe Scarborough saying Biden was the sharpest he's ever been. True? No of course not. A lie? No genius, it's not even a fact statement. He was sharing his opinion about something we can all see and deduce with our own eyes.

I'm sure anyone could comb through MSNBC and find better examples, because every news network is going to get things wrong from time to time. That's not a reason to stop watching the news, and I hate to break it to you but your little right wing podcasts are no better. I'm sorry you don't have enough critical thinking abilities to understand that.

I do listen to MSNBC on my drive to work because it's good to know what billionaire corporate media is up to. And most of it is boring enough for me to drive well. It's good for laughs too. Like today they were crying about how a crony law firm lost security clearance privileges. Pretty funny stuff. The corporate media manufactured outrage over stuff like an elite law firm losing security clearance is pretty funny, especially when they frame it as some grand injustice. It’s like watching cheap and unpopular actors desperately overplaying their parts. At least it makes the commute more entertaining!

Only apologize when caught to avoid being sued, but never retract the original statement.

Plus they air it when the viewership is low. A 15 minute segment about a false topic, 8 sec "apology". That's the legal formality propaganda shell game. People don't trust that kind of game anymore.

So you think it's funny that a President of the United States is using state power to extort a private business into providing free services, and in the process sending an unmistakably clear message to any and every law firm in the country not to take up any legal case that this administration doesn't like.

Cause you know, free speech.

This is literal third world country shit that we all used to pretend could never happen here.

It's not like I needed you to suggest anything so explicit to understand that you're just a brazen partisan hack who couldn't care less about any of the principals you pretend matter, but it's still pretty shocking anyway just because of how absurd it is.

lol tell me you are not crying about lost privileges...

Nah, crying over crony corporate privileges being revoked is a 1st world problem.
Find something real to cry over.

Free speech does not mean free venues at the Whitehouse. Find a real argument to cry over instead of an axiomatic debunking.

This has nothing to do with "lost privileges" nor does it have anything to do with the law firm in question. This is entirely about the flagrant abuse of power by an administration completely unbound by any sense of legality, ethics, morality, decency, or any concern at all for the status of the American experiment, and the ramifications that has for all of us.

For you to pretend this issue doesn't matter or is really about some "privilege lost" that we're all feeling bad about is grossly disingenuous, not to mention just plain stupid.

If Joe Biden or Kamala Harris were doing the exact same thing you wouldn't need me to explain this to you. It just goes to show how much of a partisan hack you are. Fortunately for myself I don't expect any better from you so it doesn't bother me, I'm just entertained seeing how incapable you are of defending this. It just further demonstrates that people like me are not the problem.

Lol, I don't care about special privileges for the elites in DC. If you are in that group, too bad and so sad.

They did, and I didn't give a crap then. This is strictly a 1st world problem only a rich liberal can afford to waste time worrying about.
