You are correct. I am disappointed in how blatant the coverage has become. They have all made their peace with Mikey now..

You say that as if they are the only network going over the top. ALL of them have gone crazy with coverage.

So it's okay for your FNC to bash Obama 24/7, but not okay for MSNBC to point out all of Palin's shortcomings?
And last I'd check, FNC will be having extensive MJ coverage.
Hypocrite.

I've heard all the MJ jokes. Some real sick ones too, but that one's pretty good.

I'm not Palin's biggest fan but I don't think she deserves the bashing that she is likely to get from the folks at MSNBC tomorrow afternoon and night.

Joe, won't be too bad. He's never bashed her before...although he does think her stepping down is a bad political career move. He does like to talk about himself and the over promotion of the book has been unbearable at times. Hopefully that has come to end.

Mika...you never know what she'll say but she'll probably stick up for Palin...for women and family reasons like you mentioned. She's also got a book about that issue that is coming up sometimes in the near future.

Matthews along with Olbermann and Maddow are probably counting down the minutes until their shows! LOL

Tuesday, yeah....I think I'll keep the TV off from 12:00PM on. It's just sickening.

thanks for the intel.

But I dont give MSNBC ANY credit for "sane & bearable coverage" They will trash Palin at every oppurtunity I bet (even the bimbo news-readers like Contessa)

Seems 'Morning Joe' has been somewhat unwatchable lately... Joe & Mika are both getting pretty obnoxious and full of themselves (especially with that lame-ass book, which Mika has NOTHING to do with)

God Bless Pat Buchanan, he will be the only soul on MSNBC tomorrow giving Palin some 'defense' I bet.

Joe will most likely spin this story to his blow-hard, former "republican", sell-out benefit...
I wonder how that annoying, clue-less, stuck-up, liberal broad Mika will act tomorrow? Will she has a hissy fit & not read any 'negative comments' about Palin? or will Mika try some b.s. about how Mika 'understands' Palin as a woman + family... (give me a frigging break and get that spoiled Mika off the show ASAP)

Can you imagine how crazy! & hate-filled! that misogynist Chris Matthews must be right now... he cant wait to open his mouth and attack Palin!!!

All in All; Monday will be a pretty low point for MSNBC... then Tuesday will be the LOWEST point for MSNBC when it goes to the MJ circus.

Joe tweeted that MJ is going to have Pat Buchanan on the show tomorrow so they can get his take of the resignation of his "girlfriend." I heard Pat talk about it Friday and he thought it was a brilliant move. I'm guessing he still does. Anyway, it should be an interesting show.

I'm predicting the Palin coverage will be sane and bearable until around 3:00PM. Then it will go down hill and into the gutter from there.

This is typical NBC over the top coverage of anything. Its too bad it won't go into the Olbermann program. We could stand to lose listening to some of his Palin venom. I hope he tries to test her lawyer and says something nutty and deroggatory and then let see the law suits start towards NBC

Yeah he seemed to be a real self hating black man.I wonder if his whole body was as white as his face was.If you see pictures of him as a teenager he was fairly dark.
Anyway this is going to get more coverage than the funeral of a head of state. Pretty sick.

Micheal Jackson will always be with us… he is not biodegradable.

The most outrageous part was when Lemon called Jackson an "accidental civil rights leader." I had to laugh because if anything Jackson was a reluctant member of the black community. He married two white women, chose to have white kids, and tried to remove every trace of his race from his appearance!

Tina, Did you hear Don Lemon's ridiculous rant this morning on "Reliable Sources?"

So now NBC/MSNBC has an excuse not to show any "real news"...
At least it wont mess up NBC/MSNBC planned marathon of hate & bitter they will have all day Monday as they catch up with the Palin coverage

They are all insane; this over the top media circus is absurd.
