NBC Reporter Suggests Covering Van Jones a Waste of MSM Time (video report)
MSNBC ^ | Sept. 15, 2009

Posted on 09/15/2009 11:12:04 AM PDT by Free ThinkerNY

"I think Van Jones was not, this was not a big guy in the White House administration. If we're all going to focus on trying to figure out who Van Jones and his past relationships, when you go #600 down on the list of White House staff. Is that the best use of the time of the mainstream media? You know, we'll see. Clearly some on the right had objections to Van Jones and they successfully got the White House to sever ties."

How many “unimportant” people work in the White House? Especially ones who accused us of imperialism the day after 9/11.

These “reporters” are just lying. It’s sickening.

What struck both of them was the last statement. The Right wanted Jones gone and they got what they wanted.

Oh, yes. Michelle’s arms and Obama’s exercise routine are much more important.

Right up there with Gibson saying “first time I heard about that.”

And how many Bush people were just ‘the little people’ and could be left alone?

Scooter Libby was a major player?

“Interesting take.”

They have to say this. They never covered it. It was that lunatic Glenn Beck that nobody watches.

I am anxious to see how they start to cover the ACORN deal.

“BTW, late breaking news we here at MSNBC have uncovered. An independent film maker apparently has been committing crimes across the country by secretly video taping entrapped charity organizations.”

This theory works fine if you belong to the Kneepad Network, but why did Obama hire this weirdo, why so many “Czars”. If they were interested in news they would look.

We’re in some new type of reality here. The MSM is completely delusional. This is why they are losing viewers hand over fist. Very few people watch MSNBC. The data doesn’t lie. But the MSM seems suicidal. They won’t change. They won’t change until the Sheriff comes and padlocks the doors.

Like Tom Brokejaw said last week, “reporters examine and filter events” for the rest of us.

Chuck Todd is a POS Obama lover.
For Mr. Todd objectivity is out, knee pad wearing is in.

The way the MSM is embarrasing themselves foolishly is absolutely delicious! I am loving it. I don’t see how many independents can avoid learning the bias in the MSM with the number and manner of these denials and exclusions. this avalanche of It is going to sink in with them slowly but surely. This is fabulous. The MSM is exposing their hard left bias. This is becoming transparent. I love it!

100% on the money.

What we call the MSM is rapidly becoming the OOTMSM(out of the mainstream media) as more and more Americans see them as hostile to the citizenry and sympathetic to this administration

Why not use the media to cover the state of Michelle’s bugff arms?

I thought someone got the network wrong and really meant Bill O’Reilly. I heard BOR say the same thing to Glenn Beck last week.

That’s when I turned him off and haven’t turned him back on since. Probably won’t watch him ever again.

No sense wasting time on Van Jones, Acorn, 9/12 March, may detract from their coverage of something Levi Johnston might say about Brisol, or Sarah.
