This is all Americans need to know about just how disgraceful a "news network" MSNBC is.

A new study just released by the Pew Research Center found that in the final week of the just-ended presidential campaign, the "Lean Forward" network did absolutely no negative stories about President Obama or positive ones about Mitt Romney.

MSNBC's coverage of Romney during the final week (68% negative with no positive stories in the sample), was far more negative than the overall press, and even more negative than it had been during October 1 to 28 when 5% was positive and 57% was negative.

America! Where you’re free to say anything you like. Just don’t say anything you don’t like. This joint is just like the old collapsed Soviet Union now. Thanks Barry Benghazi!

Headline needs to be corrected. It should read last YEAR not last week.

That is their business if they admit their bias. If they claim to be objective news then they are nothing more than skid marks on Journalism's shorts.

MSNBC is a communist enterprise. We are paying for them thru our cable subscriptions.

I heard that they also transmitted a special tone over the air, that prevented people from changing the channel or turning their tv off!!

Comcast is already laying people off. We should put the final nail in by boycotting ALL of MSNBC’s sponsors. We need to hit the media in the pocketbook or we will never lose.

Did anyone expect MSLSD to do positive stories on Romney? Why the shock that a pro-socialism network favors a socialist candidate?
