MSNBC was paid directly by the administration. Was a story a month or two back they were paid to run ObamaCare ads.
There’s also a post election plan to dump millions on Hollywood to run episodes of popular tv series to promote ObamaCare.
Not to mention the millions of dollars the networks reap in political ads during election years. Why do you think they try so desperately to keep the race neck and neck in the polls? It keeps the ad dollars flowing in. There is a very unhealthy symbiotic relationship between the dominant media and the political class.
