    You are, allegedly, a "red blooded American" and why did this make you sick? If you are going to say it was because the comments were barely coherent, I might agree with you, with the caveat that she was no more incoherent than far too reporters from any of the cable news networks. If you are talking about content, I can't imagine what you found offensive.

    How exactly does this show any bias at all? I am not contending that MSNBC has no bias, but this clip doesn't show any.

    1) Stop treating the BBS like your facebook/blog.

    2) WHY does this make you angry?

    3) HOW does this show bias?

    You're outraged over that? She essentially said we shouldn't judge people by their appearances yet there are some who still do and this incident will enable them further. I guess you proved her point.

    Weak sauce.

    hmm not the best example of showing the media bias.. BUt is there a mainstream media bias? I think anyone who denies it is refusing to accept facts. YES THE MAINSTREAM media definitely has a liberal bias. It's very clear and I think they don't even deny it. Does Fox have a Republican bias? I think anyone who denies it is also refusing to accept facts. It's the crappy media and crappy news which I don't watch anymore.

    This issue has been pointed out and debated on the bbs before. There was plenty of evidence showing that the media does have a bias but isn't really liberal or conservative, and has more to do with money, pack mentality, a need to try and show impartiality when the facts are favorable to one side.

    That segment was excruciating to listen to.

    Did it remind anyone else of this?
