MSNBC is Dead. You hate to see it

First, Donald Trump destroyed the Republican Party while landing several body blows to the mainstream legacy media. Next up, Bernie Sanders is on his way to destroying the Democratic Party, but in the interim, “Are we seeing the final death throes of the mainstream media?”

There’s one bright spot in the bleak media landscape. The Hill has a video web series—Rising with Krystal & Saagar—and while it leans heavily leftist, they’ve been fair-minded and on top of the ridiculous Russia narrative. It’s a real joy to watch them laugh along with Glenn Greenwald as he points out that MSNBC now views Vladimir Putin “as if he’s a Russian Nate Silver!” Enjoy the full clip.

</p> <p>Glenn Greenwald is a hero in the vapid field of journalism. He has earned this victory lap.</p> <pre class="wp-block-preformatted"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">You might think that Putin - as the President of a large & complicated country with highly complex domestic & geo-strategic challenges - has a lot to do, but he actually spends hours on 538 studying US swing-state data at the county level to determine who is strongest & weakest.</p>— Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) <a href="https://twitter.com/ggreenwald/status/1231978164479459329?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 24, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></pre> <pre class="wp-block-preformatted">Watch for this on TUESDAY: <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Defense begins in earnest Tomorrow <a href="https://t.co/fgq8D0zptr">https://t.co/fgq8D0zptr</a></p>— WikiLeaks (@wikileaks) <a href="https://twitter.com/wikileaks/status/1231989713986297856?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 24, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></pre> <div id="contentad38601"></div> <div class="bottomad"> <script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>  <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:468px;height:60px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-9413888452913793" data-ad-slot="5092427661"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script> </div> </div> </div> </div>   <div id="commentsAdd"> <div id="respond" class="box m-t-6"> <div id="respond" class="comment-respond"> <h3 id="reply-title" class="comment-reply-title"><h4><span>Leave a Reply</span></h4></h4> <small><a rel="nofollow" id="cancel-comment-reply-link" href="/2020/02/24/msnbc-is-dead-you-hate-to-see-it/#respond" style="display:none;">Cancel reply</a></small></h3> <form action="http://iroots.org/wp-comments-post.php" method="post" id="commentform" class="comment-form"> <p class="comment-notes"><span id="email-notes">Your email address will not be published.</span> Required fields are marked <span class="required">*</span></p><p class="comment-form-comment"><label>Comment</label><textarea id="comment" name="comment" cols="45" rows="8" aria-required="true"></textarea></p><p class="comment-form-author"><input id="author" name="author" type="text" placeholder="Name" value="" size="30" /></p> <p class="comment-form-email"><input id="email" name="email" type="text" placeholder="Email" value="" size="30" /></p> <p class="comment-form-url"><input id="url" name="url" type="text" placeholder="Website" value="" size="30" /></p> <p class="form-submit"><input name="submit" type="submit" id="submit" class="submit" value="Post Comment" /> <input type='hidden' name='comment_post_ID' value='154290' id='comment_post_ID' /> <input type='hidden' name='comment_parent' id='comment_parent' value='0' /> </p><p style="display: none;"><input type="hidden" id="akismet_comment_nonce" name="akismet_comment_nonce" value="2e85e531d8" /></p><p style="display: none;"><input type="hidden" id="ak_js" name="ak_js" value="133"/></p> </form> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <aside class="sidebar c-4-12"> <div id="sidebars" class="g"> <div class="sidebar"> <ul class="sidebar_list"> <div id="text-6" class="widget widget_text"><h3 class="widget-title">Our Sponsor</h3> <div class="textwidget"><script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>  <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:300px;height:250px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-9413888452913793" data-ad-slot="1720158862"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script></div> </div><div id="facebook-like-widget-2" class="widget facebook_like"><h3 class="widget-title">Find us on Facebook</h3> <div class="fb-like-box" data-href="https://www.facebook.com/iRoots.org/" data-height="239" data-width="292" data-colorscheme="light" data-show-faces="true" data-header="false" data-stream="false" ></div> </div><div id="text-3" class="widget widget_text"><h3 class="widget-title">LIKE WHAT YOU SEE?</h3> <div class="textwidget"><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> Donations appreciated... <form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post" target="_top"><input name="cmd" type="hidden" value="_s-xclick" /> <input name="hosted_button_id" type="hidden" value="4KK8ZYLDGNNFW" /> <input alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!" name="submit" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" type="image" /> <img src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" border="0" /></form> Better yet?
