I don't think I've ever "promoted" MSNBC. To the contrary, I think
I've complained more or commented negatively about their programming.
The only show that I think is really worth viewing is "Morning Joe"
because Scarborough at least attempts to keep the discussions
balanced and will challenge those who start getting too far left in
their opinions or comments. To his credit, he will also take some of
the ultra-right wing nuts to task as well.

Lastly, I get a kick out of watching Mika Brzezinski getting
exasperated with some of Scarborough's comments.

And therein lies the problem. In today's highly polarized political
climate, if you're not for them, then you must be against them. Anyone
standing in he middle of the road with a fair and balanced position
will be struck by oncoming traffic from one side or the other.
Mostly I blame the media for bringing us to this sorry state of
affairs, but as thinking adults we should all be trying to end the
nonsense.

How? I mean that's right, but how? Not that it's particularly
balanced, but say it is for a minute. How do you not promote your TV
show or talk radio without being inflamitory? Wait, I know...
education! Then, when you spout off some ****, it's a deliberate lie
and nobody with a decent education, specifically one that teaches
critical thinking will be fooled.
