Matthews Still Thinks Blockbuster Around, Intros Woman as 'Haley Barbour'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 11/10/2015 5:27:47 PM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

You'd think that back in April when, as Ken Shepherd noted, Chris Matthews talked about Blockbuster being about all that's left in Rust Belt towns, one of his assistants would have gently taken him aside and explained that Blockbuster shuttered its stores some time ago. But on this evening's Hardball, there was Chris committing the exact same gaffe.

And in the very next segment, Matthews introduced MSNBC reporter Hallie Jackson, who is youthful and female, as . . "Haley Barbour," who for all his great qualities is neither. But, hey, look at the bright side. The guest in the next segment was Republican lawyer Ben Ginsberg. At least Matthews didn't introduce him as . . . Ruth Bader Ginsburg!

Time for Matthews to be put out to pasture?

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

I think that in a battle of wits, Chris Matthews would lose to a bowl of tapioca pudding.

Poor Little Chrissie Matthews, the in the closet homosexual who is in love with Obama, can’t seem to keep all the names and faces together.

He’s in competition with Biden for the Moron of the year award.

His car has been giving him trouble lately, so this weekend he plans to trade it in for a new Plymouth.

I think Matthews scored the lowest score ever on “Jeopardy”. He scored even lower than Wolf Blitzer.

I’ve wondered for a few years now if Matthews has lapsed back into alcoholism. I’m not saying that to be funny - it’s not meant to be at all. I hope he has not. I just have noticed the guy has gotten more and more erratic and “out there” with each passing year.

It’s hard for media elites to understand the real world.

Chris Matthews is the kind of airhead bimbo who gives all blondes a bad name.

My uncle is a car dealer, one day I found a hub cap on his lot, it had a big “H” on it. I told unk that it must be off a Hudson. Unk is “elderly”, he had a real puzzled look on his face but didn’t say anything. Probably thinks I’m nuts.

He may be right.

Good ol’ yellow and white chanterelles - have picked more than a few up on the Olympic Penn. That picture sure brings back the memories!

I believe there are a number of Blockbuster franchises still running:
