Walk around the Giant don't confront it. It needs the people more than we need it, and that applies to any organization.

Wait...your anonymous guest didn't give you the red meat you want so you're making stuff up??  Wow, just wow.

Mmm. I'm finding is episode repetitive and you're leading the interviewee too much towards your thesis.

only made it to 11:36... Did you guys just generalize entire parties and focus only on the 5% of bad and dismiss the rest of the better parts of parties you disagree with.  Maybe if we give the good people a voice in all side of thought and stop putting all focus on the bad we can get somewhere good.

Feel like I'm watching and episode of gangland.

This is like Citations Needed Chopped & Screwed.

MSNBC is by far the most influential mainstream media outlet on the American Left. It sets the tone and defines the boundary for what is acceptable discourse among American liberals. But major issues the Left is generally thought to care about - imperial war, worker strikes, Palestine, climate change - are almost entirely absent from coverage, as the network increasingly looks like a 24-hour Trump-Russia infomercial.

What is the point of having a liberal cable news network when it ignores so many major issues on the Left and pushes a narrative that, in the aggregate, does little beyond selling more weapons systems and inflaming US-Russia proxy wars in Syria and Ukraine? How did MSNBC get this way? What are the corporate forces making it so terrible, and is there hope for a more thoughtful, politically relevant network? 

We are joined, anonymously, by a former MSNBC employee.
