19. It is more than just 'toxic bothsiderism' and lazy journalism. MSNBC and NBC are both owned by

Comcast, a publicly traded company. As such, the ONLY fiduciary responsibility of any corporate officer, including senior directors and producers is to generate shareholder profits.

The bottom line is always PROFITS for Wall Street. This is why I'm fond of saying that shareholder primacy capitalism poisons and degrades everything it touches.
