MSNBC host Chris Matthews, MSNBC reporter Norah O’Donnell, and MSNBC guest Joan Walsh shamelessly played the race card against Sarah Palin and her book-buying audience last week.

In Michigan, O’Donnell smugly noted that Palin’s fans were “largely white — almost no minorities in this crowd.” Matthews parroted the line, assailing the “white crowd.” Walsh likened the gathering to a “paranoid tea party.” Matthews hammered away at the “monochromatic” scene.

Ahem. Check out the masthead of MSNBC TV, “The Place for Politics.” Wear sunglasses and SPF 30 lotion. You’ll need protection from the blinding white glare:

So, if the vast majoritiy of people at an Obama event are black, would MSNBC call them racists?

No, they would call the white people that are NOT THERE racists.

So apply the same logic to a Palin event.

MSNBC.... why do I remember that name?

Oh yeah, that was Imus's network before they fired him.

[cruise_missile]

I didn’t realize there were so many white people on that network. Like all of them

[cruise_missile]

Another WHITE guy.

I remember during the Iraq invasion 2003 that Lester Strong anchored the continuous coverage for some 20 hours a day. Day after day, like some never ending Jerry Lewis telethon host granted no respite. I do not believe he ever recovered.

Matthews and his ilk are brain dead idiots. So why would anyone watch them? Oh wait—no one does.

[sausageseller]

Mrs. Malkin is a national treasure!

Hmmm, I wonder what the racial make-up of the msnbc audience is? What if msnbc had a book signing, what would the fans look like?

[Tzimisce]

Yeah - we all know about them white people and how they judge everyone simply by skin color.

[BobL]

Fine, when they treat the Jesse Jackson’s the same way with regard to racism, I’ll listen.

I could care less of blacks are interested in Palin...after all I’m not interested in black music (i.e., rap). Maybe in a free country people have the right to choose who they associate with.

[Bon mots]

Michelle Malkin rocks.

She can get away with it too, because she is not exactly white. I think she’s Puerto Rican...

I’m JOKING!

[NoLibZone]

What’s MSNBC?

Is that like a Waynes World basement cast, but for news?

[No Longer Free State]

Not sure what they would look like, but I’m getting nauseated imagining what they’d smell like.

[A_Former_Democrat]

And I bet they all live in predominantly white neighborhoods too

Every damn one of them

What if msnbc had a book signing, what would the fans look like?

You mean Lester Holt— An iron man and he seemed impartial to me

[cruise_missile]

Remember their own Saul Alinsky.

Make them adhere to THEIR rules.

[Shqipo]

>>>You mean Lester Holt— An iron man and he seemed impartial to me<<<
—Thanks for the correction. Being impartial was likely the end for him at that crazy network.

Well, time to hold MSNBC to their standard that they set. Write to the office and tell them their makeup doesn’t represent the America we all know. They set the standard, now they can live it.
