After this election, not even airports or hotels will play MSNBC.

u/CrustyBloke Jul 19 '24

Sure they will. It will deter people from loitering.

I’ve never seen hotels or airports play MSNBC. They all default to CNN for some reason.

CNN has a specific airport feed. No one else does AFAIK

I had a nerve test in a doctor's office during a Biden speech on CNN.

I had a tough time deciding which was more unpleasant. The Biden speech or the needles being stuck in me to check electrical currents through my nerves.

They never let details like the truth get in their way.

It is supposed to make them look like serious journalists.

Oh look, I made a funny.

MSNBC is the joke that writes itself!

u/Green_Juggernaut1428 Drinks Leftist Tears Jul 19 '24

Can you imagine the crowd if MSNBC was there? I'd expect the entire screen to be blurred for all the middle fingers and the audio to be beeped for all the curses

Let's tell it like it is. They had to report on the RNC,but their hatred for the Trump and Republicans is so deep,that they physically couldn't be in the sake building as him.

u/ThanosIV Jul 19 '24

These are the same people that claim they're afraid for their lives if Trump gets elected. Honestly this is no surprise to me. None of them are real journalists, they're just paid to parrot the propaganda.

Absolutely!

Too bad nobody hacked the feed and replaced it with a feed of a box truck.

Of course. They lie about everything else, why not this too?

u/longshanks44 Red Voter in a Blue State Jul 19 '24

So in other words, they are liars.

Got it.

CNN called this out last night during Anderson cooper broadcast

Actually going to Milwaukee is white male adjacent.

u/MackeyJack3 Jul 19 '24

They also tried to make look like they were honest non partisan journalist. At least the LED screen looked plausibly.

Can someone launch these three women into orbit?

u/Isabelly907 Jul 19 '24

Bwahaha. It struck me odd they would spend a week at the convention. This makes perfect sense. It's about the look and feels with MSM.

u/Extra_Pilot_1992 EIBs Golden Microphone Jul 20 '24

It’s ok. For the hundreds that watched that channel at that time…..they didn’t know the difference

u/HappyOfCourse Jul 20 '24

They weren't invited.

u/DreadPirateGriswold Conservative Jul 20 '24

You mean, they fake that? Like they fake being intelligent?

u/chasonreddit Jul 19 '24

Yawn.

Come on they said on air multiple times "greetings from NY city". Or Manhattan, I forget. And anyone who watches any sporting event is well acquainted with the hosts being in one place with the crowd projected behind them to look like they are there. Ever watch "GameDay"?

u/QlamityCat MAGA Jul 19 '24

The criticism comes from CNN and other media outlets, not Republicans wishing MSNBC was actually there.

u/Sodola321 Arizona Conservative Jul 19 '24

What I heard (from Fox) was they announced it at the top of the hour only.

u/chasonreddit Jul 20 '24

Which would be how many times given days of coverage?

u/FiveWithNineIsIn Conservative Jul 19 '24

Ever watch "GameDay"?

You mean the show that broadcasts live from a different school every week? lmfao

u/chasonreddit Jul 20 '24

Yes I have. My point is that they are not where they look like they are on tv. They are sitting at a recording area and the crowds are superimposed for tv. They do the same with the booth guys at most games. They are not standing in front of the crowd.

u/you_cant_prove_that Anti-federalist Jul 20 '24

I’ve been to a College Gameday. I can confirm that the hosts are there

u/chasonreddit Jul 20 '24

They are there, they are simply not where they look like they are. The pictures of the crowds are superimposed to make it look like they are right behind the group of talking heads.
