MSNBC Forced to Apologize After Egregiously Taking Quotes Out of Context for Gun Control Segment
The Blaze ^ | 5/3/2013 | Jason Howerton

MSNBC is run like some first-year college student project. I doubt if anyone really makes that much money or salary off the operation.

My guess is that said apology was ignored by both of MSNBC’s viewers.

I don’t know who the producers at MSNBC are, but I guess they don’t care about the size of their audiences or ratings. Despite the fact that the Gun Control Legislation is History and nobody really cares about it, they keep the topic front and center everyday starting with Morning Joe. I don’t know who they are appealing to, but I don’t imagine advertisers are going to hang around too long unless they get off this obsession.

Dingy Harry Reid is, as I write this, bringing it up again in the Senate.
we cant afford to rest on our laurels...they are going to try to make the NRA spend all they have again and again until they get zer0bamas law in place.

I think they are NBC’s throw-away propaganda arm and sop to the far left. That way, they get the viewers who think NBC itself is conservative.

Don’t laugh. I have heard that about all the OTA networks and CNN. I have also heard from a self-styled *socialist*, that zerO is a Republican.

The list at the end of the article of other MSNBC editing lies doesn’t include at least two incidents of their audio fakery in the George Zimmerman case or the “racist” Tea Party (black) guy with the gun on his hip. Those are just a couple others that come to mind immediately.

So, what was so special about this particular piece of propaganda that MSNBC should start apologizing now?

Oh, yeah. The Obammunist fascists probably called ‘em up and told ‘em to quit faking stuff Uncle Joe was saying.
