MSNBC starts with Morning Joe at 8 , a good program....the bias begins at 9, but only slightly with the intelligent Chuck Todd leaning forward a bit, but still manageable...

After 9 AM , it s pure leftist propagnada, but MSNBC laughably claims it is straight news!

Mediaite’s Noah Rothman blasts Tamron Hall for going POV …

MSNBC programming claims that they consider every program after 9 a.m. EST but prior to 3 p.m. on the weekdays to be “straight news” — not point of view programming. The truth of this statement has been repeatedly called into question, starting arguably with Hall’s own “Lean Forward” ad where she rails against the politically charged issue of income inequality. If Hall is a straight news anchor, as her network insists, than she should leave the role of panel guest to her panel guests.

    If you don't like MSNBC Bob then go back over to Fox where their lies are, well partisan. See Bob you don't like facts. If it isn't a lie it must be propaganda. You do know Fox is the tea people Koch republicans propaganda machine, mouth piece. the problem with Fox is their tea people Koch republican propaganda (lies) are 24 hours 7 days a week.

        How long did it take for you to find a conservative poll like Rasmussen that had the results you were looking for Daniel? All other polls have President Obama up by 3 to 4 percentage points. Do you know what an out-liar poll is?
