I just watched a sickening half hour of Fox news bullshit from Hugh Hewitt, only it was broadcast on MSNBC. He used every right wing talking point about the budget deal, even using the "Schumer Shutdown" talking point.
I will not purchase any product or use any service that advertises on the Hewitt show.

Its such poor management I dont know how they keep their jobs.
They could have built a much stronger viewership already but they keep cutting off their own noses.

(165 posts)Now that they have a (mostly) good lineup of intelligent, informative anchors, with a concurrent boost in ratings, you'd think they'd now understand what their audience wants. Real news, and discussion, with differing views yes, not propaganda. Hewitt is unqualified.

(1,474 posts)MSNBC has been going bad since they fired many of their liberal hosts over a year ago. It has seemed to be better since trump became president, but with any media always FOLLOW THE MONEY. They loved trump before the election - good ratings. Now they seem to be anti-trump - good ratings. Ratings and profit is their goal. If quality reporting was their goal, the ratings would follow. Rachel has great ratings, right?
