Meanwhile, over at the MSNBC gulag, they are writing their next sting script. The skin bags at MSNBC are just sad. Steny Hoyer is standing there looking like a constipated stooge.
Of course she does not see any bias and of course she only sees pennies – Like NPR she sees herself as one of the elites. And as one fo the elites she should decide and distribute to the masses only what the masses need to know for thier pitiful existance. She actually seems to be offended that one of the masses tried to expose NPR (and herself) for thier elitist mindset.
Keep in mind her husband is Alan Greenspan — between the two of them, they have played a BIG PART in destroying the American dream and bringing America to its financial knees…sedition comes to mind for both.
andrea mitchell has always been a shill for the left……..part of the ruling class that will be purged sometime in the next five years.
suibne
JESUS! Was that a question or an essay?! THAT is why journalism is dead, Andrea.
Pennies…ohhh ok give the pennies to me..just write me a check for the full amount
Hoyer looks like he's got all he can to just remain standing…..
Mitchell exemplifies diarrhea of the mouth.
Wait, an MSNBC anchor sticks up for NPR?
No way!
" Nobody is suggesting that their journalism is biased " REALLY ????
I think that is what everybody to the right of Marx is suggesting .
It may be pennies to ms Mitchell, but it comes to millions of dollars…money that could go for reducing the deficit. Every penny helps towards reducing that $14 TRILLION deficit. There will have to be dramatic cuts to reduce the debt.
It always amazes me how the left wants all these special programs, but then expects us to pay everyone to pay for it. And they NEVER pay more than the mininum they have to.
If it is such a noble program, I'd think ms mitchell would be willing to pay extra?? I guess that is just crazy thinking???
Hmm… $400m is now "pennies". Could you give me a penny?
Please send me those pennies. REALLY.
Andrea should give all her pennies to them .Then she won't have to worry about their funding.
And O'Keefe should do a sting on her.
What a buffoon.
Poor guy had no idea what Andrea had just said. Neither do I. I feel his pain.
Ever heard Rush say her name? Hilarious. Hold your nose while you say "Andrea Mitchell from NBC news". It's kind of fun. For a minute. NEXT!
Nothing like the liberal media throwing a bone to their comrade in arms….
BTW, did she take breath while asking that question?
If NPR goes down the tubes, where will those liberal progressive commentators go? MSNBC is already full of 'em. MSNBC is protecting NPR because they are all afraid that Nina Totenberg, Big Bird etal will take over their jobs.
Their sick, liberal bias is exposed, and the perpetrators circle the wagons, and protect each other.
Ms. Mitchell, I know real journalists. You're no real journalist.
Nasty old witch………phooey
Ick, that picture of her creeps me out, reminds me of the Joker in the old Batman series. I think surgeons can fix her cross eye problem.
Very simple then. How about you and your financial architect loser husband (Greenspan) chip in the "pennies" to tak up the slack? Never mind "pennies", I refuse to even give a marble or a used toothpick to NPR, the commies airwaves.
451 million bucks is, what, 45.1 billion pennies?
what a stupid liberal bitch
andrea's face used to look like it was at one time on fire , then someone put the fire out with a rake …. once she married mr. magoo she must have had enough money to fix her face
Was there a question in there, Andrea?
Also, you look like a bobble head.
Yep
Greens paned the globe – now it's Bernyank me time
Just another skank in the tank for the statists.
I don't care if NPR helps to raise money for the Treasury – They are terribly biased and they should not receive taxpayer support!
"We're talking about pennies on the budget." – Mitchell
All the more reason taxpayers should be relieved of the expense and NPR should have no trouble finding private donors to fill the void.
I'm sure Soros or al jazeera would gladly contribute, seeing as how you all tow the same line.
Andrea Mitchell has long been a worthless phony journalist who has been in the tank for Obama and the democrat party and no surprise she defends one of the branches of the democrat party national progressive radio
agreed she is a worthless so called journalist
Ok Andrea since we are talking about "pennies on the budget"(450 million) it shouldn't be difficult to cut say 1,000 "pennies on the budget" immediately. 1,000 x 450 mil would be a good start.
Pennies on the dollar???
Schiller's fundraising days are over.
Schiller is out of his next gig too at the Aspen Institute.. Even though he represented what organizations want in a rainmaker — the ability to pander to anyone willing to write big checks the Aspen Institute wasn’t impressed enough to talk Schiller out of resigning before he even got started with them!!!
Maybe he should send his resume to the Muslim Brotherhood!
MSNBC covering up the calumny of NPR? Who'd a thunk it.
Pennies add up to dollars, And we are way beyond millions. It's billions of pennies…
Who's "pennies" are they?!
Ohmygosh.. I was going to get on here and post something like that. She looks like one of those photo programs where you can stretch someone's face with your mouse.
14% isn't pennies, you witch.
You saying that these reporters aren't bias, was a bias statment, Witchell.
How's that cut and run FED chairman scumbag husband of yours doing, Witchell?
How's all his Bilderberg Group buddies doing-too, btw, you skank?
They protect each other, this is why this tribe is so powerful.
Are you sure that was her face ?
She could never work for FOX…to ugly.
Was he allowed to answer her extended rambling self serving question ?
Scooped ! by D-10-A
I can't even read her name without hearing Limbaugh's impersonation — or take her seriously because of it.
she sucks dead farts out of old sofas
Are you insinuating that Andrea's Mom fed her Dog Food with a sling shot when she was a baby….That is horrible(ly funny). I would love to see her and her husbands financial portfolio, probably mirrors the US Debt.
" We're talking about pennies on the budget"
NO you D.A. We the People are talking about lying and having Us pay for it.
POOR ANDREA!! She can't help it, she was born with a silver foot in her mouth!
Andrea
Andrea
Andrea
STFU !
Can't take it with you
Nobody she knows, ……. as usual their buddies are always truthful !
Right On, Right ON, Right On !!!!
SHE IS A COMMIE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Puppets of the Rothschild family.
That's a LOT of pennies, IYAM.
Yes they do, and….. the tribes power is from the Dark Side. IMO
What a liberal trollet
The accusation that "all Tea Party members are racist" has nothing to do with money but everything to do about "purpose". Poor little Andrea (such a little teleprompter but no brain) cannot possibly be expected to understand this concept as it interferes with the "promote Obama's agenda at all cost" mantra.
penny saved is a penny earned
And 4.6 billion is just pennies on the national debt.
Don't usually use such language; but this reminds me of Dan Ackroyd on the old SNL show….."…you ignorant bitch!" what a hoot.
Well…the unions are always hiring non-union folks that can chant, protest, and carry pre-printed signs. Of course thats only part-time work, but I hear they provide sandwiches and beverages too!
Andrea, Alan just called. He wantsyou to come home right away. He says he needs some head.
What is Andrea doing on Breibart? Class. Intelligence. Common sense. What the hell happened to Laura Ingram? I need to see some right wing LUNACY!!
"It's just pennies on the dollar…." all of these liberal loons will not allow anything to be cut because it is all just pennies to them. Of course, the Repubs are not much better with all this angst over 60 billion. I could cut 500 billion in 15 minutes. Cut a hundred billion off defense. 10-15% off every agency. Shut down entire departments such as Education, Energy, of at least cut them in half. Take a stand against these lunatics. We are broke!
Thanks for making his case for him.. dumb skank.
Wow, there has been a lot of hate thrown her way. And how does it help a position to call someone a "dumb skank"? I'm not sure how that contributes to a dialogue on how to balance the budget.
The vitriol that has been expressed toward any manner of support for the funding of public broadcasting is disproportionate to what seems reasonable in light of the greater question of how to balance the budget. What people like Andrea Mitchell appear to be trying to articulate, if poorly, is that it is a misallocation of our collective energies to put first on our agenda cuts in public broadcasting when we could have much more of an impact by fighting for cuts in defense spending, or reducing subsidies for agriculture, or reducing Medicaid expenses, etc.
I have no doubt that I will be crucified for this point of view, as I usually am, but my point is that if Americans are truly concerned about balancing the budget, there are bigger, and more important battles to fight. If ending public funding for NPR should really be our focus when it comes to balancing the budget, then I think we might be missing the forest for the trees.
We dont have the money to spend BORROWED MONEY on a marxist/socialist/progressive propaganda tool. I know our creditors, china, like this im sure, as it weakens America, but AMERICANS hate it.
Calling her a 'dumb skank' is a gesture of frustration with her view of reality.
This is not about balancing the budget. When congress shut down Acorn, it was not about balancing the budget. It was about pulling government funds from an organization who was supposed to be doing one thing but was actively doing something totally different.
She said two things that were inaccurate in that one short clip. That it was about balancing the budget and that they were not biased.
People are sick and tired of listening to media personalities spin things to make their friends look good. If you want to call it hate, go ahead. It does not matter to us. When we hold the door open for you, instead of hearing 'thank you' we hear 'get out of my way'. We are sick of it. Look at how far the left has gotten by being rude and crude. Class is class but winning is better. We are ready to win my friend.
This hag is married to Alan Greenspan, ex chair of the NON federal reserve. CROOKS! The NON fed bilked America out of it's gold back in the 30s and they're STILL screwing America to this day.
I'm pretty sure a good smack upside the back of her head would do the trick also RL.
I'd like to at least try.
No, saying "I'm frustrated with her view of reality" is a gesture of frustration. Calling her a "dumb skank" doesn't express anything other than an intent to insult. People on this site have proven themselves to be intelligent and nuanced. The minute that nuanced political views are expressed by calling someone a "dumb skank" is the minute we all lose.
And yes, this IS about balancing the budget. If you're more concerned about Acorn, that means you're more concerned about righting political wrongs than it is about balancing the budget.
Because yes, people are sick and tired of listening to media personalities spin things to make their friends look good. What reasonable people want is a logical and rational conversation about how to cut the deficit. And if cutting funding for public broadcasting is the primary focus of a person's efforts, then as I said, while a valid position in context of a greater conversation, it also means they're missing the forest for the trees.
As I recall , Ronald Reagan nominated Alan Greenspan as the Chairman of the Federal Reserve, so I'm not sure what point you're trying to make by linking him to Andrea Mitchell.
Well I don't get your point on the Reagan reference. It doesn't matter who appoints these crooks to the NON federal reserve, they're still crooks and Andrea Mitchell is married to the biggest one out there, what's so hard to understand about that?
My point is that in your mind, the biggest crook out there was appointed by Reagan. So what does that say about Reagan?
It says he had to choose someone and not just some joe schmoe from off the streets.
So the best Reagan could do was to pick someone who you see as a crook?
But I'm still confused what that has to do with Andrea Mitchell and NPR.
First paragraph – that is what I said. The minute we accept her views and call her Sweety is the minute we lose.
Second paragraph – YES, THIS IS ABOUT RIGHTING POLITICAL WRONGS. The budget is a separate problem. We will work to balance the budget regardless of what happens to PBS. PBS is going down because it is a leftist media machine and we are sick of paying for it.
Third paragraph – See above.
I'm sorry you can't understand it even after I've explained it to you, maybe next time.
400 million is "pennies???" To me the 100 billion in proposed budget cuts, most of which will never get enacted, is "pennies."
PS. Andrea, in the U.S. we don't use pennies we use cents. They use pennies in England. Ask your husband if you don't believe me.
That was a question? That was a defense! Stand back and take that in for a moment. A "news" "reporter" not only taking a very biased side, but misconstruing the facts and telling the audience what they should think about the whole thing. Maybe she bucking for a job at npr.
Real reporters ask questions and report facts. That was a question? That was a defense! Stand back and take that in for a moment. A "news" "reporter" not only taking a very biased side, but misconstruing the facts and telling the audience what they should think about the whole thing. Maybe she bucking for a job at npr.
Wow, if that's not biased "news", then I don't know what is. Gee andrea, didn't they teach you in journalism school that "news" is not to "tell people what to think", but instead, to "tell people what to think about". Your little rant sounded like you were trying to assume your opinion was fact and projecting that assumption onto the viewers… all 4 of them.
If we're only talking "pennies", then they won't be missed. Defund.
Now that's objective reporting.
There is a huge difference between accepting her views and calling her a "dumb skank". I disagree with your views, but I don't feel the need to call you an offensive name. That doesn't make my disagreement with you any less true. Calling someone an insulting and offensive name doesn't make someone right. It just makes them a jerk.
And if you're more concerned about grinding political axes and righting perceived wrongs than you are about addressing critical topics like balancing the budget, then you are part of the problem, not part of the solution. And frankly, it means you're no better than the partisan liberals you rail against.
Oh, I understand that you think Greenspan is a crook, what I don't get is what his being married to Andrea Mitchell has to do with her defense of NPR.
That's like saying that because you can't make a valid argument, your wife must be a communist. It's a complete non-sequitur.
Back in the 70's in Phila, this woman tried to destroy a great Police commissioner Frank Rizzo He also became Mayor She worked for our local affliate.
Sheriff Joe is our New Mayor Rizzo here in Az. TAKE NO PRISONERS
npr is biased! my college professor told me it was the best news station. sure, he was fifty and wore corduroy suits with elbow patches, but i believe him. he had a beard, and drank with us at the bar. save npr funding!
Thank you Mr Judgmental.
I appreciate your input but I can do two things at once. While the budget is being worked on, I can 'rail against' (to use your words) another liberal organization that is receiving taxpayer money to promote a belief that I don't accept or agree with. They can spend their own money spreading their beliefs.
"And frankly, it means you're no better than the partisan liberals you rail against. "
You can say that about me, but 14ley can't call someone a dumb skank. Frankly I would rather be called a dumb skank than a liberal.
"The minute that nuanced political views are expressed by calling someone a "dumb skank" is the minute we all lose. "
I guess you have equated yourself with 14ley and this is the minute we all lose then.
Liberal: "Not limited to or by established, traditional, orthodox, or authoritarian attitudes, views, or dogmas; free from bigotry."
Skank: "Derogatory term for a (usually younger) female, implying trashiness or tackiness, lower-class status, poor hygiene, flakiness, and a scrawny, pockmarked sort of ugliness."
Your choice Gent…
You can use Google to look up definitions and you pick definitions from a liberal source. Imagine that…
Thanks for assuming that I am so stupid that I don't know the difference between the word liberal and skank. Then you even went to the trouble of looking them up and used copy and paste to post them for me.
Why do you spend your time telling people on here what they should or should not do? It is because you consider yourself liberal yet you don't fit your own definition. You are not free from bigotry if you have to tell others to act like you to be accepted or correct.
So are you saying there is a generally accepted definition of "skank" that is NOT offensive? And seeing how you were confused about which of the two words was offensive, I couldn't assume that you weren't stupid.
And I'm not telling anyone what they should or shouldn't do. You're more than welcome to call her a skank, or insult me all you like. Like I said, it just doesn't do anything to make your point more valid.
But don't talk to me about bigotry. Most of the right has no problem telling people how to live their own lives. Do you?
"So are you saying"
See, you take my words and tell me what I am saying. Why do you do that?
"You're more than welcome to call her a skank"
I didn't call her a skank. I just said that the person who did was frustrated with her. Then you come back telling me what I'm thinking is not what I'm thinking. If it is okay to call her a skank, why did you bring it up in the first place?
We are going to bring PSB and NPR down because they need a new direction and new management. You can try to deflect this problem with budget talks but it won't work. We are going to fix the budget and we are dealing with all these peripheral liberal agenda items that are paid for by the tax payers.
Yes, you are a bigot. If you were okay with everyone being themselves, you would not spend so much of your time on this site telling everyone what is wrong with the way they think,
That is why I don't care if you call me a skank or a liberal or a conservative. I am what I am and I'm damn proud of it.
You're confusing "So are you saying" with "So you are saying". I said the former, which is a question. I wasn't telling you what you said. I was asking you if that's what you were saying. The hint is in the question mark at the end of my question.
And I know you didn't call her a skank. I've gone out of my way to make sure that is clear. But you are defending the guy who did, which doesn't make you a whole lot better than him. And it's not ok to call her a skank. At least I don't think it is. But that doesn't mean you or anyone else don't have the right to. Just because I disagree with what you're saying doesn't mean you don't have a right to say it.
And I am really ok with people being who they are and believing what they believe. I say things here because a whole lot of folks can't back up what they say they believe with logic or rational argument, and I am trying to challenge them to do so.
You, at the very least, can back up your views. You want to end funding for NPR and PBS because it promotes an agenda you don't believe in. I can respect that. I think it's a colossal waste of time considering the fact that we have so many other more pressing issues to deal with, but you feel that way, and that's fine.
If that makes me a bigot, then fine. But at least acknowledge the bigotry of the right in telling people how to live their lives. I mean, you're damn proud of it, so at least acknowledge it.
I tell my children how to live their lives… they turn 18 and they are on their own. They make their own decisions. I support them when they are correct and warn them when they are not. I am what I am and I'm damn proud of it. What am I? At this point in my life, I'm determined to fix this liberal mess and not leave it for my kids to do.
"a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices"
That is a liberal, a conservative, an atheist, a christian, or just about anyone in a group.
If you want 'the right' to acknowledge something, tell them. I just happen to share some of their beliefs.
"I say things here because a whole lot of folks can't back up what they say they believe with logic or rational argument, and I am trying to challenge them to do so. "
See, if they believe in something that does not have a logical or rational explanation that you agree with, you challenge them. Logical to you. Rational to you. That is judgmental. They have to meet your expectation of right and wrong, otherwise you challenge them and that makes you a bigot.
When you ask someone to prove that they spoke to God today, what answer will you accept?
You ever see a classic car where the paint is wearing thin, and the Bondo is starting to show through. That would be Poor Andrea.
