Fox is moderate compared to MSNBC

How is MSNBC left-wing? They have a couple of pretty liberal hosts, but on the whole, I wouldn't consider them a left-wing equivalent of Fox. This is why Z is out of touch with reality. The only people watching MSNBC are the left wing nutjobs. Well, and my brother -- a conservative who just likes to berate the idiots who appear on MSNBC.

MSNBC isn't left wing. If they were, I'd watch them much more. LINK TV is left wing, as Fox is right wing. For news, I watch PBS, which is the only decent reportage other than the BBC.

Z, > How is MSNBC left-wing? They have a couple of pretty liberal hosts, but on the whole, I wouldn't consider them a left-wing equivalent of Fox. Unlike CNN, MSNBC gets pretty blatant with their left-wing bias at times. It's earned them viewership, so why not? Tenchusatsu

MSNBC is to liberals what Fox is to you righties. The fact that you can't see that shows how extraordinarily partisan you are. How is MSNBC left-wing? They have a couple of pretty liberal hosts, but on the whole, I wouldn't consider them a left-wing equivalent of Fox. I meant in the sense that most of the anchors[?] on the channel......I am not sure anchors is the right word....... don't make any real attempt at neutrality. In the AM on Morning Joe, you have Schuster and Kiki[?] who are liberal and don't hide that fact........and on the other side, is Joe S. who is conservative and who makes no attempt at hiding it. Ditto with Keith Olbermann, Mathews and Rachel Maddow in the evening. In that way, MSNBC is very much like Fox as opposed to a CNN. Since there tend to be more liberals on MSNBC than conservatives, I see it as the liberal response to Fox.
