NBC ruined TWC and MSNBC

[lakhota]

That's my opinion!

[verrip1]

I say you're wrong. So there!

[floridayankee]

Impressive. Care to fill us in as to why you believe that?

I neither agree or disagree since I don't tune in to any of those channels.

[jkapp]

They ruined the weather channel? Or does TWC stand for a different network?

They ruined themselves because nobody cares about their liberal opinions.

TWC predicting a 30% chance of severe thunderstorms in Dallas during the month of April sounds like a pretty conservative opinion to me.

I don't have a clue what you are talking about.

If it's the weather channel, then we are supposed to get some much needed rain Monday. Sure hope so.

Ed Schultz 'Psycho Talk' Segment Axed By MSNBC

MSNBC has shelved Ed Schultz' "Psycho Talk" segment, Schultz announced on his radio show Thursday.

The segment, a sort of cousin to Keith Olbermann's "Worst Persons In The World," features Schultz highlighting a statement or action he dubs "psycho talk" every night on his show. But a listener emailed in to Schult'z show and said that the segment seemed to have disappeared since Schultz' switch to 10 P.M. from his previous 6 P.M. slot. (Schultz' move was part of MSNBC's reshuffle in the wake of Olbermann's departure from the network.)

Schultz said that he missed the segment, but that "I work for somebody. I don't call all the shots."

He said that "the decision has been made that Psycho Talk' was better at six o'clock and not at 10 o'clock. Now look, there's probably people in positions that are a helluva lot smarter than I am and have decided that that's what the way it's going to be. So, that's what's happening."

Schultz has had a rocky relationship with his MSNBC bosses; last year, he infamously threatened to "torch this f--ing place" if he was not featured in the channel's promos, and in December, MSNBC president Phil Griffin said that Schultz had "crossed the line" at times.

On Tuesday's "Hardball," Chris Matthews was so incredulous about Michele Bachmann's interpretation of American history that he called her a "balloon head," and he could hardly keep himself from yelling at a co-founder of the Tea Party group which has selected the Republican to give a response to President Obama's State of the Union address.

Matthews was speaking to Tea Party Express co-founder Sal Russo. He played the same tape which had also gotten Anderson Cooper riled up, where Bachman lauds the Founding Fathers for working "tirelessly to end slavery."

"I don't know what to make of that, Sal," Matthews said. "That's balloon head. That's not what our history was founded on. We founded on a Constitution which...treated slaves as three-fifths of a person. It went all the way to the Civil War."

Matthews derided Russo and his group for making Bachmann their spokesperson.

"Why do you put someone like this forward who is a balloon head?" he said. "Who knows no American history? It's a ridiculous decision you guys have made. Do you know how little this woman knows about our history?"

Russo started to respond, but Matthews interrupted him. "Did you just hear that stuff?" he said. "Did you just hear? You want me to play it again? We can rub it in, Sal. It's horrendous."

OK , just realized why I watch CNN for my news instead of Fox, MSNBC, or the others..

I know CNN also has their round tables..however , right know I am not interested in the Talking Heads with their ideas of what is going to happen..

CNN has a few reporters on the ground in Cairo, one flew in yesterday and they are reporting what's happening on the ground..less of what may or may not if this happens or that..asnd that's what I want ..what the hell is going on now, on the ground.

Now look, there's probably people in positions that are a helluva lot smarter than I am

The person in the position of cleaning the washrooms is smarter than Ed Schultz...
