You're right on target today, Thom! I watched Medhi Hasan on his Sunday MSNBC show yesterday and was appalled by the interview he did with a reporter? / writer? about Reagan's deal with the Ayatollah Khomeini in 1980. Neither of them revealed the real facts about this "treason"--as you appropriately call it. In fact, they left the matter…
You're right on target today, Thom! I watched Medhi Hasan on his Sunday MSNBC show yesterday and was appalled by the interview he did with a reporter? / writer? about Reagan's deal with the Ayatollah Khomeini in 1980. Neither of them revealed the real facts about this "treason"--as you appropriately call it. In fact, they left the matter as uncertain...vague...incomplete. This really amazed me that Medhi, born of Indian parents, either knows very little about this matter--or is very deceitful to his viewers. I thought your interview with him last week was absolutely superb...and that Medhi was on top of game. However, this piece he did on MSNBC really makes me think less of him. Can you please contact him...or at least send him your today's "Report"? I think he needs some education on this very important topic that reveals the "treasonous" behavior of past Republican presidents. It's long past time to set the record straight ! Thanks again, Thom !!
All of the anchors, talking heads, whatever y ou call them on MSNBC are employees of a corporation that itself is not liberal. It is owned by NBCUniversal—a subsidiary of Comcast.
Comcast is not liberal, it is actually Fox light. The "hosts" and reporters have earbuds, and are
being monitored by producers who know how far to tread. That and the screen in front of them.
Comcast, NBC Universal is nothing more than infotainment, designed to capture that percent of the viewing population that is not enslaved to Fox and CNN, hence its "liberal" skin. The hosts and anchors and reporters know what not to discuss and how far to go with a subject, if they value their jobs. Tiffany Cross, Keith Olbermann and others have found out, the hard way, where not to tread. Mehdi may be of Iranian parents, but he does love his million dollar a year job and wants to keep it. (I would include Chris Matthews in that list, but I am thrilled that that narcissistic, amoral, loud mouth is gone. The ass hat waged war on Democrats when the Repubicans were in power, and his wife had the gal to run for office as a Democrat.)
I will give Rachel Maddow some credit, but she is an expert on bloviating, and spends a whole hour on a pedantic rant about one, arcane subject.
You will never see one of them take a deep dive on Russia and Ukraine, and you will never see anyone on MSNBC , except Joy Reid and her guests, take the Trump humping DOJ and their right wing Attorney General to task, all I have seen from them is "expert" guests making excuses, even for SCOTUS.
The corporate media is , CNN, MSNBC. Washington Post, NYT, the right wing Media is Fox, The Tribune papers, and stations, Sinclair, Heartland and others.
If you expect real facts, relevance and coverage of truly important things, prepare to be disappointed.
And by the way, their analysts (experts) are a joke. Especially those retired Colonels and Generals they pay $10,000 an appearance. They have been retired so long I would be surprised if they could put together, in precedence, row of ribbons (awards and decorations) that they would wear on their mothballed dress uniforms. Same goes with legal experts, People with opinions and we all have those, don't we.
