Chris Hayes MSNBC Promo: 'I'm There To Do Politics—Not Talk About It'
...................................................
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein


The line between liberal political punditry and ouright liberal politcal activism at MSNBC continues to fade to the very vanishing point.

In the latest promo for his All In show, Chris Hayes boasts "I'm not just a passive witness. I am not there to just tell you a story. I'm there to act out: to do it in real time—to do politics, not talk about it." There's something comic about Hayes' delivery. He speaks with all the strength and conviction of President Obama laying down a red line to Vladimir Putin.

This is too funny. Their ratings continue to crater across the board. Fox's weakest link, Greta, continues to double up Tingles in the ratings, and it's a bloodbath (i.e. 3 to 1 or more) for the other shows against Fox. How much longer will the shareholders put up with this?

WH Press Secretary Gets Questions from Reporters Before Press Briefings


Mar 20, 2014 • By DANIEL HALPER

A CBS reporter from Arizona reveals that President Obama's press secretary, Jay Carney, receives questions from the press in advance of his daily press briefing. In fact, she says, the reporters often receive the answers in advance of the briefing, too.

According to the reporter, Jay Carney told her this yesterday at the White House:

"It was a very busy day. We started here shortly after 8 o'clock with a coffee with press secretary Jay Carney inside his office in the West Wing," says the reporter.

"And this was the off-the-record so we were able to ask him all about some of the preparation that he does on a regular basis for talking to the press in his daily press briefings. He showed us a very long list of items that he has to be well versed on every single day.

"And then he also mentioned that a lot of times, unless it's something breaking, the questions that the reporters actually ask -- the correspondents -- they are provided to him in advance. So then he knows what he's going to be answering and sometimes those correspondents and reporters also have those answers printed in front of them, because of course it helps when they're producing their reports for later on. So that was very interesting."



The reporter, from a local CBS Arizona affiliate, interviewed President Obama yesterday.

UPDATE: Carney denies:
