Olbermann and Matthews Canned by MSNBC email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 71/100. DrMario (489)3 months ago

These two were fired for being biased in their coverage of the DNC and the RNC.

MSNBC got so many complaints from viewers that they were forced to dump both of these anchors.

What do you think about this?

I never watched them so I don't really know much about it, but I never liked Olbermann even when he was the sports anchor at ESPN. Matthews was a good interviewer until he fell in love with Obama, his bias showed itself frequently on his Hardball show.

Do you see those two as being biased reporters?

Did you like them?

Do you like to drive with the windows open or to use the A/C?

Depends on the time of year! wink

I was just hearing about this on one of my radio shows yesterday. Some guys from Fox, that used to work with Olbermann, were talking about what a rude person he was. I have never heard the man. But if they got complaints...well the people are the ones who have to listen to him. I do think it's a good thing that they listened TO the people.

It seems the left realized it went too far and this is just damage control. The over the top bias has backfired on them and it's going to cost them their candidate.

I really really despise that the media thinks we're all stupid drones who will do whatever they tell us. This election has proved just how wrong the media is.

I never liked Olbermann and I say good. He sure was biased.
I was watching CNN this morning and after watching a reporter report the news saw her start a political discussion. To me she seemed biased against one of the parties. I can't help but wonder what ever happened to reporters reporting the news? Remember those days when they just read what was in front of them, end of show. You never got their views or opinions, just the news. Now it's as if everyone of them has a side and tries their best to get the rest of us on it.
I drive with the windows down except in the winter. I never ever use A/C. I like real air and I hate getting out into the sweltering heat.
