    On MSNBC at 9 pm ET. Documentary about a former White Supremacist. Looks interesting.

    If you have any questions about why some of Trump's remarks are racist. And why they are "dog whistles" to neo-Nazi groups, the documentary might clear that up for you.

    If you dare watch...

    MSNBC and documentary in the same sentence. That is an oxymoron.

    I agree, but I feel the same about Fox News. MSNBC is a far left propaganda machine, and Fox is a far right propaganda machine, and both sides will attack the other as such, while completely ignoring corruption on their own side. That is how partisan extremism works.

    Attacking the messenger before you have even seeing the message says quite a bit about you.

    Namely that this is something you specifically would benefit from watching. Doesn't make a difference how you attack it later, because you already gave up all your credibility with this post. But some of the message might be useful to you.

    I have seen MSNBC. And that certainly says a lot about me.

    Anyone who puts much faith in an MSNBC "documentary" has already lost credibility.

    To be fair, MSNBC, as an organization, has just as much history as Fox News does of purpose misinforming their viewers. Selective editing, refusng to cover stories which make the left-wing look bad, or make the right wing look good....Etc.....Everythijng the left attacks fox for, MSNBC is guilty of as well, and the left says nothing.

    Why on earth would anyone subject themselves to an hour of psycho babbling hate filled morons, engaged in so obvious an attempt at confirmation bias while busily patting themselves on the back for their imaginary perspicacity.

    Please do show an example.... The "Selective editing" part, please.

    I don't attack Fox for not covering stories. I attack them for lying! For carrying stories because the increase their viewers, without having done any verification whatsoever.

    Media outlets can be "wrong". So long as they have done their "due diligence", I'm ok with even Fox making mistakes. Fox doesn't know the meaning of "due diligence"

    They call it "education". You should try it once, for a change.

    Lack of education is what creates white supremacists in the first place. Anybody who is not one already, can take it as an "immunization shot"

    Nor can MSNBC defend showing only one side of the picture, which based on my experience with MSNBC is exactly what they will show, only one side of the picture.

    Thanks for the heads up, Sunday nights are Mark Levin night for me, so I'll be careful not to accidentally flip on MSNBC. I used to watch them some before the thrill went up Chris Matthew's leg. Now they are nothing more than shills for the liberal left. Fake news at its worst.

    College degrees don't guarantee a general education.

    And anybody with a college degree who graduates from a decent school knows this.

    So your complaint is that you think they won't show "both sides" of the Neo Nazi movement?

    Your fear is that they might be biased against White Supremacists?

    Gasp! The openly working for the DNC political propagandists of MSNBC are saying bad things about Trump again? Say it isn't so!

    The amusing thing about this is that the collective Left started off with RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! and then when that blew up in their faces they switched to OBSTRUCTION! OBSTRUCTION! OBSTRUCTION! and then when that failed to bring them joy they switched over to RACIST! RACIST! RACIST! Question . . . do you really think that nobody has noticed this cynical political ploy on the part of the increasingly desperate Left?

    That is why I also mad note of a a significant number of Minor by the way I graduated by in 1976 when one was required to take a core curriculum approaching 60 hours before one even started one's course work in ones major field.

    I'll be sure to tune in, as soon as they address racism by other than whites, guess I wont be tuning in.
