MSNBC abandons GOP convention during every speech by a minority [Racism @ MSNBC]
The Daily Caller ^ | 8/28/12 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 08/29/2012 10:42:12 AM PDT by Arcy

In lieu of airing speeches from former Democratic Rep. Artur Davis, a black American; Mia Love, a black candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives from Utah; and Texas senatorial hopeful Ted Cruz, a Latino American, MSNBC opted to show commentary anchored by Rachel Maddow from Rev. Al Sharpton, Ed Schultz, Chris Matthews, Chris Hayes and Steve Schmidt.

Throughout this convention, Matthews has accused the Republicans of playing dog-whistle racist politics while on scene in Tampa. It isn’t clear, however, if Matthews will hurl accusations of racism at Davis, Love or Cruz for speeches his network failed to broadcast.

Sounds about right. Gotta keep their viewer(s?) from realizing that there are non-white conservatives.

Gotta feel sorry for anyone who watches MSNBC for news.

“Tailoring” their coverage for their audience.
Nobody but the MSNBC diehards watch them anyway.
Funny thing is, they’ll retain the audience they still
have today after the election, as they spin their wheels
in powerlessness. Their desparation will grown exponientally with each passing month with the new President, then finally
they’ll start blowing fuses, and Ed Schultz and Chrissy M., their premiere
fuse-blowers might actually plunge the entire station into
semi-permanent darkness, alleviated only by a renewal of Soros-sourced money acting as a generator to see them through their darkest period.
They are on their way out.

Let’s get real, though. GOP needs to stop pandering to a group who votes 95% for the Democrat. The black vote is not going to happen.

Once again, or rather STILL, the MSM is hiding behind its own pathetically out-of-date and shamefully adulterated Socialist concept of ‘rights”

“In spite of its foreground appearances, ethical Socialism [Socialism here means much of the modern theory of human rights] is not a system of compassion, humanity, peace and care, but one of will-to-power…”

They are compelled to validate their hatred and prejudice lest they engage in an uncomfortable moment of self-doubt or reflection.

Everyone is fed up to the gills with the personal attacks.

It is so over-the-top and ugly beyond belief on the DNC side, (and yes, only the DNC side is hitting the personal uglies on all six cylinders) that everyone wants Obama out and the democrats sent home.

It’s been coordinated. Just like with the “journo-listas” during the 2008 campaign.

I disagree about the black vote. Many blacks are conservative but just don’t vote that way because Republicans are successfully portrayed as racists. Many blacks wish to be self-sufficient instead of dependent.

Happily, MSNBC’s audience is just a mite smaller than my family. No prob.

Nobody has to “pander” to anyone; they just have to have the guts to speak the truth. Mia Love, Ted Cruz, Artur Davis, AND Christ Christie did it last night, and man it SO refreshing—and encouraging!

It is worth reading a Wikipedia article to see how Left-biased MSNBC is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MSNBC

Years ago, I remember reading a story about singer/actress Lena Horne (at least I think it was her). The article described how her musical numbers in old films were put in films such that they could be easily removed from the films for when they were shown in the South, back when they were racist (and Democrat). If a film had a scene featuring an African-American as anything but a buffoon, that film wouldn’t play in the racist South.

MSNBC is just following in those footsteps.

Amen, and remember it’s 100% owned by NBCUniversal now, which is 51% Comcast, 49% GE-owned.

I went to PBS after FNC kept interrupting the covererage so O’Bloviator could spew and interview the ever-fascinating Alan Colmes. No complaint about the coverage from PBS, as much as it pains me to say it.
