Ann Friedman joins the fight.
And makes a vital point about MSNBC supposedly being a lefty Fox:
I question how partisan MSNBC really is. Yes, they now have prime-time slots for Maddow and Keith Olbermann. But unlike, say, Fox News, where the only liberal on the team is the addlepated Alan Colmes, MSNBC hands over its entire morning show to Joe Scarborough. It’s quite the stretch to say the cable networks are mirroring the red-blue split of America. In fact, the reason that liberals are thrilled with Maddow’s promotion is that lefty perspectives are underrepresented on all cable news networks, including MSNBC.
