David Zurawik on Rachel Maddow on Wisconsin Protests

This is a great article by David Zurawick about MSNBC's coverage of the protests against Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker and his decision to cut certain provisions of the power of collective bargaining in his state. Specifically, it criticizes Rachel Maddow's inflammatory partisanship. This is nothing new to MSNBC. I don't think any educated people would consider MSNBC's lineup of "news" shows to be credible. I think it would be more appropriate to call their shows liberal entertainment - entertainment comparable to Inside Edition and Access Hollywood. But check out this article. It's not too long.

Air America Crashed and Burned

Air America, the liberal news radio station, not to be confused with the CIA radio that pours into foreign countries, shut down today. Does anyone feel bad about this?

The station, made familiar, but not popular, with such liberal extremists such as Al Frankin and Rachel Maddow, the verbally violent and volitile lesbian, has to shut down because basically nobody listens to it and they can no longer get advertising dollars to support it.

Created to compete with conservative talk radio hosts such as Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Ron Smith (I had to throw that in there), the station struggled from its infancy. Air America saw several management shake-ups and filed for bankruptcy in 2006 with mounting debts.

However, being super liberal and pro-abortion, these folks should not be too upset that they had to kill their baby.

Unfortunately, Al Frankin is now wreacking havoc in Minnesota and Washington, D.C. as a U.S. Senator and Rachel Maddow is spewing her hatred across liberal cable channel MSNBC. But, you know what they say - All bad things must come to an end. Bye-bye Air America!
