(1,551 posts)It's the network that has never let go of a known right-wing bootlicker known as Andrea Mitchell. They've also hired Mitchell's heir to the GQP bootlicking throne, Katy Tur.
It's the network that hired outright fascists like Pat Buchanan, Mark Halperin, Michael Savage and Bret Stephens; completely unhinged nutbars like Alan Keyes, and the generic right-wing nitwits SE 'Sippy' Cupp, Greta van Susteren and Hugh Hewitt. Oh, and that bilious misogynist, Don Imus.
They seem to love Democrat-haters Peter Baker, Michael Schmidt and Bret Stephens of the fascist-loving NYT.
They currently employ Michael Steele, a predecessor at the RNC to Romney-McDaniel, as a regular contributor.
They gave GQPer Joe Scarborough their highly coveted morning slot.
They fired Keith Olbermann and Phil Donahue for...well, not kissing GQP arse.
NBC's top broadcaster, Lester Holt, is a known GQPer.
NBC gave Megyn Kelly a hyper-inflated salary to replace the more qualified and intelligent Tamron Hall on the Today Show. When her contract came up for renewal, Hall walked away rather than subject herself to more racism and contempt.
So is it really a surprise that they'd hire that Macy's parade standby balloon, Romney-McDaniel?
Come on. It's right in line with their modus operandi to date.
