Fair warning: MSNBC is unwatchable this morning [View all]

The person filling in for Chris Jansing is covering the Kirk shooting from an entirely RW perspective. She ran many clips of RWers threatening retribution and screaming and yelling, including a particularly unhinged Steven Miller. Then she said, "there is also vitriol coming from the left."

No examples of this "vitriol coming from the left" of course. Just like there were no examples of "celebrating" Kirk's murder.

CNN is actually much more balanced this morning.

Exactly. Neither dared go after the other personally. niyad Sep 15 #26

Got a video link or at least the name of the person you're referring to? ificandream Sep 15 #6

Erielle Reshef (Jansing fill-in host). Here is a link Celerity Sep 15 #28

MSNBC is almost gone to me ReRe Sep 15 #43

I watched the link. I didn't hear anything indicating a right-wing bias. ificandream Sep 16 #45

Unwatchable this afternoon, too. Heard of 'violent rhetoric from both sides" twice in two minutes. Midnight Writer Sep 15 #8

If they see "violent rhetoric" its because they are searching social media high and low for it. milestogo Sep 15 #12
