More recently, GE has favored the Dems.......in fact, Jeff Immelt, the CEO, is a big fan of Obama's. And don't forget GE owns NBC and MSNBC which tend to be more liberal than their counterparts.

That doesn't make them liberal. Obama isn't liberal.

Obama is liberal.....just not as liberal as you are.

MSNBC has some liberal programming, but still, on balance, is not very left-wing.

Compared to Fox, CNBC and CNN its pretty liberal. Maddow and Olberman take up a chunk of time during the evening hours. And while Scarsborough is conservative, there are liberals like Schuster on the show who balance him out.

Immelt is a liberal Obama supporter. He's on Obama's economic advisory board. He played his cards. Probably banked on Cap and trade. Not sure that's going to pan out. Probably going to need a commercial real estate bailout of some sort. I guess he feels better on the inside.

NBC, MSNBC are getting clobbered by the other networks, BTW. Olympics is giving them a little reprieve.
