This is how Joe and Mika normalized tfg. This is how empty green will be normalized and her disgusting actions made "just part of the discussion."

It was nauseating.

We all being played, again, but the not at all neutral msm.

CBSNBCABC, joined at the hip in brainwashing America for 70 years!

Either they are completely hornswaggled or they understand completely that the "platform" given to the howler-monkey fascists by the media is ALWAYS a cushion and their agenda is to make us feel that is acceptable. If it is the latter, they are trolls.

Just once, I would LOVE to see one of the howler monkeys get a REAL interview where they have to explain their anti-American words and actions.

MSM has no choice but to prop up the dead best horse being ridden by Nazis!

They may not like it it, but it must be so done!

is good for the ratings.

coverage anyway, though. It's awful, but I suspect overstated? Evening news shows use horse-race "coverage" between commercials. But most who'll vote know who appeals and also who they'll vote for -- their party's nominee.

On musing, though, have to agree though that, even rushing to replace a dead nominee, the Democratic show would very quickly bore (don't we always?) and media coverage would quickly re-degenerate to horse race level. The solid liberal governors, senators, etcetera, that Democrats choose are generally so similar in essentials that political media are "forced" to lean heavily on manufactured conflict. But, again, very few of the 81M Democrats who voted in 2020 pay the kind of attention we do to political media.

Real entertainment value is provided by the depraved performances on the right.

Just the knee-jerk defense of corporate media.

It's disgusting to me that "reformed republicons" like Scarborough did a fairly good job this morning covering that mistake of an interview yet the same certain posters on a "DEMOCRATIC" message board always take the side of corporate media and the scumbags they prop up.

but it's disturbing to see anything positive here about that interview. Nothing positive about giving Nazis a national stage showing them as "normal."

It was done often with Hitler..

I edited my post. I should have been more specific that it always is the same handful of individuals

of Stahl

The "corporate media" wouldn't exist if they didn't have throngs of people watching to later bitch about them on a message board. If you hate the media, why do you contribute to their coffers and watch?

She will be on Bill Maher next.
Let Oberman interview her. Or Rachel. Or the Rude Pundit. Maybe Jebusss after he rises next weekend.

I'll pray on that.....

They reported the Access Hollywood tape, but they didn't hammer on it as simply unacceptable the way they would have if a Dem had said it.

They called out MTG for lying about school shooting, but didn't hammer her over and over about it. They pretend to do their job, but don't really do their job. And thus, let the story diffuse. Look what they did with the Mueller report. Sure, they reported it, but they absolutely didn't really cover it.

in the General. The Greens and others on our side deliberately helped Triump in a handful of rust-belt states in the General. That saying Trump barely won 16 and lost in 20. Biden will beat either Trump or De Santis.

DeSantis will win a General. Trump barely won by picking off a handful of votes in rust-belt states with a great deal of help from some on our side who refused to vote for Hillary in the General...the Greens as always were particularly awful. I hope Jill Stein has sleepless nights for the rest of her sorry life with the damage she and others caused.

DeSantis has become so far right, he will not be able to move to the middle in any election and will lose also. The things he has done In Florida are not popular except with his loser base and that is not enough to win a General. These two are both fascists at heart and have been revealed. Neither will win a General. We are not fucked and I suggest that spreading doom and gloom and demoralizing other Democrats to give up before the 24 elections have even begun is simply foolish. We are not fucked period. Vote Democratic always.

a majority of americans think pisswig should be indicted.

and the Media will not report on the things he did before getting nominated.
And the GOP strategy is not to win the popular vote, but the Electoral College. This has succeeded twice in the last 6 elections. It will again.

Pieces of garbage like MGT are interviewed for ratings under the guise of "you decide". She is an evil lunatic fascist but she draws viewers so that's ALL that counts. Journalistic integrity is gone, except for a few who are regularly ostracized and regulated to lower rated channels.

Until there are some sort of journalistic standards enacted to separate real news from the polluted bullshit that dominates the airwaves, the American public will continue to walk around with their heads up their asses until it just doesn't matter anymore. We are more than halfway there already.

But I do believe Stahl exposed some of mtg's wackiness and lies.

Point being: 60 minutes is neither msnbc or fox. It is viewed as more neutral. Hopefully some folks who otherwise would only see glowing media reports of mtg saw and heard some things that they didn't expect or know about her.

The only justification i can see.

Stahl expressed quite a bit of sarcasm and eye-rolling over mtg's assertions and lies.

It's too much to believe it changed any minds.

I’ve found that most DUers want the same thing Fox and Newsmax viewers want, which is constant validation of their thoughts and feelings. Anything that deviates from that is unpleasant, not something they want to see etc.

Exposing the lies and lunacy of extremist MAGAt to the light is precisely how responsible news outlets should act.

Bravo to Lesley Tahl and CBS for airing this important take down of Greene.

Hopefully it serves as an example for other to further expose the rot in the Republican Party.

we will lose in 2024 to whatever fascist they put up.

It will help drive voters who seek sanity to vote for the Democratic Party in droves.

Joe Biden, for one, is the perfect antidote to the populist extremist alternatives.

of the American voter.

That's why airing stories like this one is critical to stopping the populist extremists from turning this country into an authoritarian state.

Everyone bends over backwards for them.

The rest of us not so much.
We are on our own.
