    I like Rachel Maddow and Ari Melber’s show but I just consume them via audio only podcast. Removing the visual aspect of news broadcast is very important IMO. I can’t stand the way Fox News and CNN create their visual presentation. I never watched MSNBC so I don’t know if they do the same cherry coated gloss over everything. Plus the stupid ticker shit at the bottom, doing their best to distract from the actual information that should be conveying

      MSNBC hasn’t had a ticker in years, if ever (I’m sure they did at one point but I had watched it for a while and noticed its absence)

        Their ticker went to CNBC. The financials have been split off of their “news and opinion” for a long time.

          I think CNBC’s ticker is for stock prices, whereas Fox and CNN are for news headlines (although Fox will do several pieces for the same story, essentially putting a miniature article in a ticker)
