I suspect this time it was anti-gun lunacy used in another feeble attempt to mischaracterize widespread public opposition to the Dems' misbehavior as well as with the many problems with the health care effort.

“They should be fired for lowering the bar of journalism even further.”

It won't happen; their peers also are lowering journalism in order to aid their Democratic health care effort.

As one person tried to educate some of them, the anti-gun loonies needed to get away from their little cocoons in NYC and DC, removed from real society and the rest of the real world. (In addition to being truly diseased toward guns, they simply seemed not to understand the obvious, that Arizona permits people to bear arms openly, and similar stances are of course taken by other states. It's a real world far removed from, say, the lunacy-driven excess in the other direction we see with New York City and the scandalous punishment an NFL player is now facing.)

They were pushing the point on that particular show about white men showing up and having a black president so they had to edit out anything that would reveal their video was of a black man.<br><br>They should be fired for lowering the bar of journalism even further.

They should be fired for lowering the bar of journalism even further.

That's so stupid of MSNBC since the Oberman and Maddow shows clearly showed him. Obviously they messed up, but since the real clips did air on other shows it was clearly not a station-wide attempt to conceal the truth but a failure to fact-check that particular segment. Of course failure to fact check is a problem with all news no matter what the medium or source. You can't trust anyone! Regular news achor, really?

But the clip that was being discussed was not on either of those MSNBC shows- it was an MSNBC anchor showing film of only the man's torso while she talked about 'white people showing up at these events with guns'.
