I tuned into the debate last night at a friend's house a few minutes prior to the start of the debate. Msnbc was broadcasting "humerous" youtube shorts and a brief claymation film poking fun of Larry Craig's prediciment. It looked like something from saturday night live. I don't own a tv, so, I gotta ask, is stuff this tasteless and stupid routine for political broadcasting on TV these days?

Yes,it seems that political broadcasting has been reduced to name calling and silly sound bites lately.

That was Countdown with Keith Olbermann where you saw that you tube video. Olbermann also did a Larry Craig reenactment. I thought it was funny and entertaining. His show is like that. He has a deadly serious side and then he follows up with a lighter side. It's not just a news program. If it was I would think it was boring.

Have you checked their ratings recently? There is a reason why they're on the bottom and you've just pointed it out. I've tried tuning into them and left after five minutes of pure nonsense.

Olberman is a liberal who uses humor in his conservative bashing. Fox News attacks libs without comic relief. You probably think they really are "fair and balanced". MSNBC has conservative hosts Tucker Carlson and Joe Scarboro to provide REAL balance.
