MSNBC must be doing something right

I've seen complains from Sanders supporters that Rachel, and others, are anti Sanders. And I've seen complains from Hillary supporters that Rachel, and others, are pro-Sanders and anti Hillary. (They certainly were in 2008).

And there was a video of someone ranting that MSNBC is not the liberal version of Fox.

So... I think that if all sides are unhappy with it, it must be doing something right. Journalistic wise.

they don't take sides. At least, not obviously.

And, perhaps, keep viewers on their toes, not knowing what the host will say next.
