Never. MSNBC is not liberal, and it never was--nor was there ever a liberal media. MSNBC got pummeled over their sloppy and mortifying Koch-sucking, but the bigger issue is that the LIBERAL MEDIA! was always the construct of lying right-wing assholes. Sure, at some point in the past when we had reporters--remember them, people who reported the news after investigation and questioning?--those reporters, being people who needed brains and needed to use them, were probably rarely addle-headed reactionary morons in the mold of Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly and Megyn Kelly and a billion other dipshits, but the newspapers and radio stations and television companies and other news organizations were never left-wing. If they were honest, they tried their best to get the stories and the facts and report them to the best of their abilities. The legitimate left-wing magazines and papers, not at all big business interests like big-city papers or small newspapers or broadcast companies, never hid their agendas behind straight news or "fair and balanced" but given the overwhelming predilection and affinity for the truth, reality, and sanity to have a left-wing bias, you were much more likely to get the best information from the a hard lefty than from a completely brain-dead right-wing shithead.
Only now in the shuddering death of American society do we have the big media companies finally screaming their everlasting right-wing bias through their mouthpieces on the tee vee and in the papers without fear from reporters or sophisticated citizens holding them accountable.
