The good folks over at Legal Insurrection counted up all the times the word “Russia” was mentioned in one hour on MSNBC and found that they say it once per minute on average!!!
That’s crazy.
Watch a sampling below:
Clearly they’re invested in something coming out of the Russian election, but I’m sure a similar analysis could be made of Fox News – why just Eric Bolling and Sean Hannity would top a Trump compliment per minute on their shows!!
It also shows why we’re so polarized – everyone is self-propagandizing and few seek out honest debate and rational discussion.
Look, there’s a lot of smoke here, but so far very little evidence of fire. I definitely think the Russian allegations should be investigated, but in absence of any real evidence, it’s absurd to obsess over it so much.
