MSNBC recycles Jones too…

Let it not be said that ICN would only single out CNN for pandering to celebrity interviews. All day MSNBC recycled Al Roker’s NBC interview with Star Jones. It reached its nadir at the 2:30 pm hour when the whole half hour, minus 2 minute news updates by Dan Kloefler, was spent showing the interview.

  1. Good job. Unlike TVNewser, you seem to give the networks an equal shake. The kid over there just seems to bash CNN and FOX, for some reason.

  2. I am starting to agree more and more about the anti-Fox/CNN and pro MSNBC bias on the other TV news blog. I enjoy this one. One quick comment about the Star Jones situation: sooner or later, most everyone gets fired or laid off at least once. Star Jones got the pleasure of turning her firing around on Barbara Walters and making her look bad. I wonder if there are people sitting home giving her credit for doing that.

  3. I think you guys are seeing things if you think TVNewser is “anti-Fox/CNN and pro MSNBC.”
