34. The only "breaking-news coverage" MSNBC has been emphasizing

Sun Feb 28, 2016, 02:42 AM

Feb 2016

Is coverage of Donald Trump.

With the demise of Al Jazeera, there is no cable news channel left. CNN only covers what they can get video of even if that is only some citizen cell phone video. HLN gave up news a long, long time ago. MSNBC is political coverage all the time, mostly GOP and Trump.

MSNBC will soon be removed from my channel line up since they keep taking off the talking heads that have brains.
