I don't plan to watch their election coverage until they end this ridiculous harping on this ridiculousness. I would suggest others do the same are there a few brave souls willing to let the rest of us know when the coast is clear? Thank you in advance.

2. We have some bad news. They will NEVER stop.
They are addicted to pastorbating. They assume because it's easy to report and has a salacious edge to it that they can stroke it forever and it will feel this good.

Pretty soon they'll have to try some auto-asphyxiation while they pastorbate and then the fun can REALLY begin.

I can't wait to watch Andrea Mitchell choke herself out.

3. I'm hoping the Dan Abrams repeat just winding up now is the last hurrah...
...at least for MSNBC...an hour long rehash should just about do it, I would think. On the other hand, they may as well give the Rev his own show on Fox.

5. I've enjoyed reading more and keeping the tv off
It's informative and it's peaceful. Even the non fiction history, which can be hair raising at times, serves me better than all this cud chewing.

6. That Will Be When This Election is Over
or when they cover Hagee, and Reverend Moon connections to McCain (when hell freezes over).

7. I don't have cable, but my guess is December...however, there will
be follow-up specials about the exact moment in time when Obama's campaign derailed.

You know, it ain't really about wright. The MSM loves you, then hates you, and they loved Obama for quite some time, were bored with that, and wanted to hate him. Wright was what they latched onto. They don't know balance.

8. I hear ya. I haven't watched anything on m$nbcGE but Olbermann since
shortly after Obama delivered his speech on race. I had high hopes (:dunce:) for m$nbcGE when Olbermann's ratings took off, but they've turned out to be a huge disappointment, and just more of the same corporate-whore-media crap.

10. I tried to watch it this morning, but...
shut it down for that same reason. I was wondering if someone counted how many times "bittergate" or "Wright" was mentioned in one hour on MSNBC, jut how many hundreds and hundreds of times it would be repeated. It seems constant and unending.

12. Their coverage is insulting.
Even if you favor clinton, you should be insulted. It's really just a bunch of garbage suitable for maybe an 8 or 9 year old. I'm wondering how much of it is intentional bias and how much is just sheer laziness on the part of producers and "journalists". I don't watch CNN, but had found MSNBC a bit more evenhanded, now I refuse to watch either. I will not support this.
