MSNBC Joins With Democrats to “Grow Hope”
Accuracy In Media ^ | May 19 2014 | Roger Aronoff

Posted on 05/19/2014 8:10:33 AM PDT by PoloSec

We have often noted how NBC, and its cable-news sister network MSNBC, form a virtual arm of the Democratic Party. Now, with the creation of their new “Growing Hope” website, MSNBC has abandoned all pretense of being an actual news network, and has completely joined forces with the Democratic Party. The site operates as a Democrat voter haven, full of positive messages that tout the value of belonging to the Left and decry the faults of being a conservative. Some of these messages are quite explicit.

Lean Forward, an MSNBC motto developed in 2010, morphed into a campaign theme President Obama adopted in his 2012 campaign, and has come to mean, Vote Democratic.

-SNIP-

Where is the news? There is only opinion here. At this point, MSNBC should openly recast itself as a progressive blog like The Huffington Post.

-SNIP-

As the elections near, MSNBC will begin to look much more like an infomercial for the Democratic Party as they predictably cast Republicans as “bad,” and Democrats as “good.” Voters should look elsewhere for their information. The news organization’s “Lean Forward” motto presupposes its own corollary: “Vote Democrat.”

MSLSD should be concentrating on growing viewership.

Their viewership should double when the minimum wage is increased, and hundreds of thousands low/no skilled workers are laid off.

Hope is:

Seeing Obama leave office whether by impeachment or throwing in the towel

MSNBC's becoming the ‘black’ news network... and they already vote democrat... that makes MSNBC even less relevant - if that's possible....

“”Grow Hope””

I didn’t even have to read anymore of this to know this was some type of feel-good, pajamaboyish, upwordly mobile waste of money.
