I mostly agree. It was a shot, not journalism, and she clearly hadn't done her homework. Absolutely unprofessional. If she wants to be Mike Wallace, she's going to have to learn how to be a good reporter first. Wallace, at least, goes in armed, not shooting blindly. That things like this are "news" is a disgrace. I've actually never seen MSNBC, but given my distrust of Microsoft's computer products, I can't see why I'd trust them with the news. I have seen Fox a few times, years ago, and it was pretty appalling at times, with an interesting segment from time to time. I haven't seen much TV news at all from the other networks either in years. But in both cases, and this is true of the other networks as well, it's less indicative of a partisan bias (which, in the case of FOX, is clearly there, and if it's there in MSNBC, it wouldn't surprise me) than of the continuing and considerable decline in the quality of journalism in this country, especially on television.
