1. Fuckers

Only care @ money and notoriety

[Ocelot II]

2. Will they hire more Democrats now?

[Takket]

7. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[House of Roberts]

3. CBS will still hire more Republicans.

They will just invent another excuse.

4. "IdEoLoGiCaL bALaNcE!!!"

10. Spot on

Let’s face it, most if not all media in this country is extremely Reich wing

[barbtries]

5. people put too much faith

in crystal balls and conventional wisdom. Media has failed to uphold their role in a democracy. sick of living on the brink.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

12. The media conglomerates put their faith in their ability to persuade.

[LiberalFighter]

6. Why don't they hire more criminals?

[robbob]

8. More like "to help insure

a midterm wipeout”. Well guess what? It didn’t work.

[BaronChocula]

9. With that logic

they should hire more criminals since crime is up.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

11. To get balancing Democratic "access", they should hire Rahm Emmanuel

Then put Rahm and Mick on the same show, the same desk.

It might be interesting.
