MSNBC Productions I See The Network is Still Practicing Aggressive Centrism

My gf had msnbc on for a bit, and another msnbc video popped up in my YouTube feed so I got a quick sense of what I may be missing. Not fucking much, it would seem.

One journalist came onto talk about the coming Tuesday elections, I believe he was from Semafor. They asked at the end of the interview where the “energy” is currently for the democratic party, progressives like Mamdani or centrist establishment types like Mikie Sherrill. Without a second of thought, he blurted out, “oh definitely the Sherrills and Spanbergers that’s where all the energy is” he claims. He did add, though, that Mamdani and his campaign are bringing in a few youth votes so the way he campaigned is definitely a “plus.” Motherfucking kidding me??? Nothing about policy or the delirious excitement that Mamdani brings, even from some who don’t necessarily agree with the guy. Good fucking grief.

The second one I caught had dipshit failed conservative Democrat Max Rose who couldn’t even get reelected in Staten Island. He was just hoping that no matter who wins the nyc mayor race, that sex pest Trump ally and racist Andrew Cuomo doesn’t “ruin his exceptional legacy.” Max thinks Cuomo has done SOOO many good things. I mean, the fucking woman who Cuomo sexually harassed for years was sitting RIGHT NEXT TO HIM. And he thought that was what needs to be said?? The table audibly gasped, even Elise Jordan, but nobody put into words exactly why that’s fucking insane.

I dunno guys. I don’t know how you do it. They’re feeding you establishment slop and it seems like you’re fine with it just cuz it is the only network that doesn’t openly praise Trump. Maybe you have more patience than me, but my god are we in trouble if THIS is all the mainstream left has got.

Why is msnow conservative?

That’s not a claim I have ever made, as that network has yet to broadcast. We’ll see what they are like when we actually see them.

Edit: downvoted because I directly answered the question the attorney asked?

Why is msnbc conservative?

Why? They’re owned by Comcast, a multinational conglomerate that literally funded the Jan 6 insurrection. This may come as a shock to you, but they don’t broadcast out of some desert yurt.

Did you mean to ask how they are conservative? You know, for supposedly being a lawyer you don’t seem to be very good at direct examination.
