How David Shuster Lied to Get Me to Appear on MSNBC
Big Journalism ^ | 1/28/10 | Andrew Breitbart

Today is the day that I have been invited to go on MSNBC for the very first time. At no point during the ACORN story was I put on the hot seat to defend the work of James O’Keefe. My thesis from day one has been that the mainstream media is biased in favor of the left and MSNBC is its most obvious case study.

So when MSNBC led the charge on Tuesday against James O’Keefe when he and three others were arrested in New Orleans at Senator Landrieu’s office, it came as no surprise that the cable network seized upon a narrative that presumed O’Keefe’s guilt, falsely extrapolated that he was being charged with felony wiretapping and instantaneously coined and repeated endlessly the new buzz phase, “Watergate Jr.”

I can’t believe that Breitbart was this naive.

It is nothing but astonishing that Shuster could write such clearly biased Tweets and still be employed by any ‘news’ organization, even NBC.

You answered your implied question when you put "news" in quotes.

but she is a freaking United States Senator and as such has access to classified documents and a variety of other information not meant for disclosure by wannabe gonzo “journalists”.

Have you actually seen her field office? I have. It is tiny storefront. They take constituent calls and do community action, and presumably collect cash bribes. she doesn't ever work there.
