Fox News and CNN are tag-teaming to knock Susan Rice out of the water, which will make life tough for Obama come foreign affairs debate tomorrow.

Ain't that a bit more important than what Tagg said? You think that's being contrarian - I think it's focusing on important stuff and letting the trivial roll off our shoulders.

I.e. Benghazi threatens to hurt Obama a lot - since Romney has no foreign policy at all, it's his only card in his sleeve.

But sure, why not another column about Tavis and Smiley while we're at it.

On the voter suppression front, the Cleveland Plain Dealer is reporting that billboards placed in minority communities to intimidate potential voters are being pulled down.Clear Channel the billboard company who put up the signs says that the ads were paid by an anonymous out-of-state family foundation. After community and national protests objecting to the billboards, Clear Channel realized that the company had a policy of not accepting anonymous donors.

Clear Channel is allowing 10 billboards that have a message countering the intimating message of the controversial ads to remain in place. The company donated the 10 opposing billboards after it received negative comments from the community.

MSNBC leads CNN in

MSNBC leads CNN in viewership. This may be because, after watching news with journalists who act like stenographers, people do like seeing Ed Schultz taking to union members, and workers laid off because of Bain. They like hearing Rachel Maddow address the lack of objectivity found in Politifacts analysis of the truth of Democratic party challenges of statements by Republicans.

Rev. Al Sharpton played a major role in putting pressure on the judicial system in the Trayvon Martin case.I think the sometimes feisty anchors on MSNBC to provide an avenue of relief.

Perhaps the problem MSNBC faces is that there a very few rational Republicans that are capable of rational discussion. I for one would it want MSNBC to become CNN.

How about not reading my whiny post. Your major purpose on many posts seems to play the contrarian. You want to argue just to argue. The kids glove treatment that Tagg got would not have happened in the case of a Black President's son. The main stream media would have followed Foxnews over the cliff.

This will be my last communication with you about this subject on this particular blog. You are boring me.

I'm 37, so I mean this self critically, but we really have extended the limits of adolescence, haven't we?

In reply to Both. And always, no matter

Ted Koppel spent at least two nights reading the names of war dead in Iraq in 2004 and 2007 on ABC, Republican leaning Sinclair Broadcasting blocked the 2nd show, and many on the right in 2004 were incensed by it, thought it was antiwar and partisan.

(2007) Brent Bozell, president of the Media Research Center, derided what he called the program's "partisan nature," saying its one goal was "to turn public opinion against the war."

Artappraiser, does your interest in dead troops have any larger meaning, such as your convictions relating to supporting or not supporting any particular recent or prospective war, or war in general?

Yes, its not all bad. I like

Yes, its not all bad. I like Maddow most of the time. I think "the daily howler" goes overboard in its critique of her. Some of his criticisms are justified, sometimes he's just hypercritical.

I wish MSNBC would get it together. I don't think liberals want a liberal O'reilly type screamer, a liberal Coulter type who outrageously insults constantly, or a liberal Hannity type that lies constantly, even if the yelling and insults and lies are about conservatives. Just give us accurate quality news from a liberal perspective and liberals will tune in.

Tagg is 42...! Maturity time warp like Dubya? Has he ever done an honest days work in his life, or does he just shuck suckers like Dad?

I thought he was 30 at most. Everything these people do and say tells you who and what they are, I shudder to think of these haughty egotistical clowns running the country.
