The story behind Cenk being booted off the air by MSNBC, the supposedly Liberal network,(which we all know now is a total joke!!)
Uploaded on Jul 20, 2011
Cenk Uygur (host of The Young Turks) explains why he turned down a new, significantly larger MSNBC contract after hosting a prime-time show on the network that was beating CNN in the ratings. He also shares his thoughts on Rachel Maddow and Fox News.

Yeah. We all heard her anti-Bernie narrative early in the primary. She was following a script

The switch away from liberal content happened so fast that most casual viewers are aware of it.
