Brent Bozell has just released this amazing letter to MSNBC’s president Phil Griffin. Suggesting that Griifin resign.

The letter is a chapter-and-verse on the network that has been revealed as getting its scripts written by Media Matters, is pushing hard to get Rush Limbaugh off the air — all while harboring the likes of Ed Schultz.

Take a long good look.

Brent Bozell is a good guy. I'm glad we have him on our side.

His mother is Bill Buckley's sister. Good genes. His father wrote "Conscience of a Conservative" for Goldwater.

With regard to P. Griffin taking B. Bozell's advice to "resign", I'm hearing two words: FAT (and) CHANCE.

Silly? I don't know. If Jeffery thinks his suggestion might bare some fruit, he might move ahead and ask Obama to exit the White House. Actually, that last one conjures-up THREE words: FAT - FREEKIN' and CHANCE.

Wait! FAT, FREEKIN' and CHANCE? Isn't that Eric Holder's old law firm? Either THAT, or what people hear when his office is asked to uphold the rule of law and ... the U.S. Constitution.

Yeah, THAT Constitution!

My suggestion:
1) someone who actually watches MSNBC get a list of the sponsors for these shows.
2) post them on AS.
3) let conservatives determine what to do with the list (no need to say anything else do I).

Two comments/questions:

People watch MSNBC?

MSNBC has sponsors?

Who knew?

I have an immense respect for Mr. Bozell and I applaud his efforts to point out the hypocrisy of Mr. Griffin and the marginally witted hosts he employees. However, I respectfully disagree with his demand for Mr. Griffin's resignation and the termination of hosts like the buffoonish Mr. Shultz or the oratorically gifted Mr. Sharpton. Not only do I want them to remain on the air, I wish they could be on a network that's viewed by more than 47 dope-smoking, tree hugging, arm-locking lesbians in San Francisco.

The most effective tactic in a war of ideas with an unarmed opponent is to give them a microphone - on my best day, I couldn't do nearly as much damage to their cause as they can by simply opening their mouths and demonstrating to the world how utterly vacuous and laughably ignorant they truly are...

Hush, Triinacria, lest they awaken from their self-destructive stupor.

If it was a real journalistic enterprise, people would be getting fired, but since they are a mouthpiece for Media Matters, their doing their job and are probably getting raises for it.

I just feel bad for all the people watching MSNBC and falling for it. Decades of the Department of Education ruining our children's education has led to this.

Mr. Bozell is a warrior.

Hannity ran a clip last night in which Chris Matthews called Mormonism and the Catholic Church cults. In a way keep MSNBC as it is making Obama look worse and worse by the minute. We can use it to convince the independents that this is what Obama really stands for, by playing the clips from this network.

Oldefarte| 3.15.12 @ 4:53PM

I wholeheartedly agree. MSNBC is completely filled with stupid nincompoots disguised as news journalists, ie Maddow, Shultz, Matthews, Sharpton [talk about stupid], O'Donnell, etc; and any viewer of this network has an IQ of -10 at best. It is obviously the political attack dog of the radical Democratic Party. Just as CBS and its non-biased former anchor were slapped on the wrist for their former partisaned so called news reporting, MSNBC should be disbanded to bankruptcy by a total [other than domestic terrorist-radical viewers] boycott of same by average-normal TV viewers. Their content is akin to political ponogrophy!!!!!!!!

Ever hear of the first amendment?
