MSNBC has learned well from the parent organization. Only when they rig vehicles to catch fire and burn on camera will you know that they are fully proficient.
That this isn't getting more attention is indicative of just how far gone the media is and how much shameless, overt media lies fall into dog-bites-man territory.
