Everything you thought you knew about MSNBC political slant - throw it out the window, because one MSNBC host says you're probably wrong.
MSNBC's Contessa Brewer, appearing on "The Mark Reardon Show" on St. Louis KMOX 1120 AM radio on April 13. Brewer defended her network against the perception that it is a liberal cable news channel.
"No, but we're not liberal," Brewer said. "No, we're not liberal. We're not liberal. That's crazy - that's crazy talk."

progressive’..the new term for insanity.
The Obama State Media is all liberal!
The OSMNBC is even blatantly moreso than others.
whats the difference between a liberal and a progressive
“Who are you going to believe— Me or your lying eyes...?”
“”I think if that’s the perception, it’s based on people who don’t watch more than a segment or two at a time.”
She’s right. I would go stark raving mad if I watched more than one segment....
what is it?
Actually, “progressive” was what Communists and fellow travellers called themselves for many years. It’s somewhere well to the left of “liberal.” We just haven’t heard it for some years, and it was dropped by leftists because it had grown too hot to handle.
So if the leftists now think that progressive is a pleasant new term for liberal, a euphmism to disguise themselves, they have very short historical memories.
“That’s crazy - that’s crazy talk.”
Then I guess we’re all nuts.
The fact that she uses the term “progressives” is suggestive of her own liberalism.
It's kind of like a bunch of stark raving mad neofascist antisemites suddenly discovered themselves in a world without Jews so they just have to invent a new type to rave about.
“progressive’..the new term for insanity.”
A mental patient in a hospital was convinced he was dead and a Dr was trying to prove that he wasn’t. The Dr said if you were dead you wouldnt bleed would you? No, said the patient. The dr takes a scalpel and cuts him. See, your bleeding says the doc. Well what do you know, says the patient, the dead can bleed.
MSM droids are clinically unable to see their liberalism and no amount of proof can convince them.
"Right-wing extremist": uh, that's us...
Not liberal........insane.
I wonder where she would place herself in a spectrum of Olbermann to Savage just to select known and reasonable bookends. The problem is that many of these dyed-in-the-wool proglibs read the NY Times, Newsweek and American Progressive and so do all of their family and friends. What me liberal, nah I'm not a strict commielib.
msnbc... you are liberal and you are ALL a bunch of ****ing LIARS!
LLS
In a related story the Pope denied being Catholic.
To me it is more frightening than funny. I honestly don’t think a liberal realizes they are liberal.
Just as a conceited person doesn’t realize their faults.
Somehow though, we conservatives know we are conservative. Maybe, just possibly, it’s the ‘religious’ part of us.
Just my thoughts.
I guess she means classic liberal.
