Perhaps, when all the media omit the labels and allow readers to discern the idea of bias as compared to being well informed or biased.

I know that attempting to teach my children when analizing journalistic content and bias is very difficult with media canabalism.

Griffin must feel delusional to think that MSNBC is npping at the heels of Fox News. Numbers don’t lie, but he probably forget his Math. That self-congratulatory approach will nolt fool anyone.

Furthermore, to say that MSNBC is progressive would not deceive anyone either. What does he think of the continous radical drivel being spouted by his puppets every day and night? To add insult to injury, adding Al Sharpton to his menagerie of noisy taling heads will make them the most leftist ideologues in the TV Cable planet. With Sharpton’s history, who would ever believe what he would be saying? I see this as nothing but pandering.

HEY more libs work on fox…NO conservs work on msnbc cnn or abc cbs ….not left leaning??>>>>>

MSNBC has made over the years, with the addition of O’Donnell, Maddow, Schultz and soon to be host Al Sharpton, that the network has had and continues to have a far-left agenda no matter how Griffin tries to spin it.

Yeah… their happy cuz GB dropped his 5:00PM program, but they need to watch ratings cuz I, and a lot of others, won’t watch MSNBC if they were the last network standing!!!

Is Phil Griffin’s “progressive attitude” related to the “progressive elements” mentioned in the preface of “Marx Engels Collected Works Volume 5: The German Ideology & Works April 1845-April 1847″?

“During the period when The German Ideology and the works closely connected with it were being written, Marx and Engels devoted their main efforts to joint theoretical and practical work aimed at setting out the revolutionary communist teaching and rallying around it the progressive elements of the proletariat and the revolutionary intelligentsia. Summing up the tasks they set themselves at that time. . .”

“Progressive elements” are often mentioned in communist/socialist tracts. How interesting that today’s alleged intellectuals like Griffin prefer the role of throwbacks of the truly conservative Dark Ages.But there is nothing progressive, i.e., modern, about them. But let us not be fooled. When they call themselves “progressive,” realize that they are the Luddites of true human progress.

Winston, I loved your comment that progressives are the Luddites of true human progress. For them, progress is eliminating the risks in human lives. To some so much so that they’d eliminate most human lives. Their tools are the psikhushkas, the gulags, and the killing fields. The spirits of Pol Pot, Stalin, Mao, and Hitler live on.
