and I for one wish I had the email for Nicole, Joy and Larry because I'm really fed up with most of their shows being about impeachment with never-ending criticism of the DEms. I think they mention the Cons one or twice, 5 min. maybe. And the really stupid part is by going after the Dems they are helping re-elect the very person they say they don't want in office.

AFAIC same goes for the NYT. They know exactly what they are doing.

I remember Michelle Wolf pointing out their role in getting Trump elected, and the network journalists turned it into a mocking Sarah Huckabee Sanders story which wasn’t even true.

Comcast Media seems to be doing a redo of 2016 by setting the Narrative and having most of their on Air Talents reinforce that Narrative.

Media Talents just making idiots of themselves. Have to say,most are Teleprompter Readers anyway. And,the Producer's and Writers working these Shows are not the brightest by the Verbiage used. First off,notice the speech cadence used,140 words per minute or faster. And the so called expert Guests all filibuster the Shows lead Talent.

Maddow and O'Donnell generally run the most professional programing and they do provide facts and if someone tries to filibuster,off the set they go.

No matter who our candidate is, and full disclosure I support Biden, there will not have been a 30 year press aided smear campaign against them.

We will win this thing. Fight like hell during the primaries but never say an opponent is not qualified and then come together the second the delegate count is decided. Even if it is in April.

We go into the convention unified, we win.

The damn media is getting as bad as Trump as far as trying to stir up Dem dissension.

Same suspects, different arguments, but just as lame and transparent.

Nancy Pelosi scares the bejeesus out of some folks.
