Microsoft sold their part. It's all owned by NBC/Universal, which is now owned by Comcast.

That is correct. MS sold back in '05

My point was they started circling the bowl over a decade ago.

Circling the bowl?

I judge my news organizations by how accurate their reporting is. I challenge you to find a more accurate news source (And support your assertion with actual data, not more right wing whining about bias)

More accurate news sources are Associated Press, Reuters, Der Spiegel, and even Al Jazeera and Pravda are better at reporting news without agenda driven bias these days.

Sometimes I'm convinced that to be accepted into a journalism program in a university you have to have failed 9th grade science class. And in the last decade, it seems to be journalism has become synonymous with touting an agenda. BTW, I think Fox, ABC, NBC, CNN, all have tarred themselves with the ideologue brush. I prefer my facts untwisted to fit an agenda.

MSNBC likes to flash a click bait headline and then when you read the article it likely does not support the headline.

OK, so it is a media company, what is your point?

But you see, for the partisans almost exclusively on the right, they need to check out every source's entire pedigree to try to smell out a hint of leftistism. Hey...a new word.

You never know when you can find bias but you can, if you just keep looking and...look hard enough.

You are conflating accuracy in reporting, with your perceived agenda driven bias. One can have a bias as to what stories on which they report, particularly on opinion shows. Yet be completely accurate.

BTW: MSNBC is rarely an initial source on stories. They have reported on stories originally sourced by, (guess who?) Associated Press, Reuters, Der Spiegel (on several occasions), as well as NYT and WaPo (I know... liberal bias)
