They are just mad because they couldn’t score such a pathetic coup.

CNN’s Soledad O’Brien was quoted as saying, “How can MSNBC hire such partisan hacks? Don’t they see that they need responsible balanced journalists like me?”

CNN must believe it is exempt from the same criticism because it employs the ‘conservative’ Candy Crowley. /sarc

The thing is....CNN has no real cash to offer up a decent contract to either player. MSNBC is probably using up what they have left in the pot. In CNN’s present condition...I’d expect mostly unknowns, and newspaper journalists to be the ‘experts’ that CNN relies upon.

It was a given that Gibbs and Axelrod would end up at PMSNBC. They were on Morning Joe all the time anyway, all throughout the election. I suspect the plan to hire them was made long before now, somewhere during the election lead up the deal was cut. Axelrod, Gibbs, and PMSNBC were thicker than thieves from the gitgo.

Fighting to stay out of the basement level of ratings. Although leftist CNN at least shows a modicum of professionalism whereas Messed NBC is the left arm branch of the DNC.

There can be no question that MSNBC loses money and that the parent company simply writes the checks on its behalf.

Have you ever watched Al Jazeera? I am over here in Loonyland and I have watched it quite a bit over the past month. It's interesting.
