Opinion: MSNBC's Betrayal of the "LEFT' & Fairness

By ML Ross

MSNBC's changing format programming is a disaster. I'm so mad about MSNBC's gradual destruction of progressive programming for "The 'LEFT" and replacing time slots with tribute to CINIVs ( conservative ignorant no information voters).

All right this is the first week of programming since MSNBC eviscerated LEFTY shows, leaving only a sliver of salvation in the evening. Let me tell you, the new format STINKS! Whatever ransom-golden parachute Phil Griffin holds over the network can't excuse rewarding rampant & egregious failure. The afternoon is bloated with reporting on the GOP. I'd get stuck on a toilet with the diarrhea and vomiting for days than listen to conservatives. The network pretends as though Democrats no longer exist in this GOP fantastical bizzaro world than to listen to another broadcast from Thomas Roberts (and I like him) about that orangutan Trump. And the explosion of conservative pundits, strategists sucking on the MSNBC payroll tit from every dark crevice is an infestation of rats, and vermin from a flood.

The formula to maintain competitive ratings was and remains easy: provide facts, analysis steeped in reality minus hourly redundancy presented by a previous show. Only an idiot could have mucked this up OR a covert conservative hired by FOX to tank the network's efforts to supplement the progressive/ liberal movement....well, mission accomplished. WTH & F!?

I want Olberman, Bashir, their brash hard hitting commentary were unparalleled.....I miss Wagner, Reid, Schultz & the weekend show hosts from 2014, even the gnats from the Cycle. These broadcasters & commentators united the conscience of our coalition "To Lean Forward". It is no coincidence, the disintegration of MSNBC culminates with the onset of the 2016 election cycle and the sunset of Pres. Obama's tenure...gerrymandering, poll taxes, & cheating isn't enough for them. Yeah, I'm mad, I bet you are too, but let's channel it

Hi -
East coast liberal, part of Organizing For America and Editor for the Civil Rights Section - Progressive Congress News. Blogging some 'snark', facts, data & my opinion for 2 yrs....politics need to reflect and address people's truth/reality, not lying propaganda.

My training as an accountant and former financial analyst affords the talent to observe patterns, investigate trends/connections between issues. Sharing information is care giving for the public's best interest to progress toward a healthier society. I contribute my talents by creating effective messaging. Despite an amazing, populous agenda, the democratic party notoriously stumbles with weak, strategic communiques and narratives to the voters. I am working to change this egregious misstep.

If I'm not posting on FB, twitter or LI, I'm procrastinating from going to the gym...but always end up going. Avid ice cream fiend balanced with early-morning runs (except the winter) 20 F is my limit.

Drop me a note, good conversation is always welcome and I ADORE humor!

Regards,
ML Ross
