Not to play to people's prejudices, but AJ should have changed its name/logo for the U.S.

Or, you could say those people would never watch it anyway so what's the point?

Basically the same thing and you inadvertently raise a perfect point: they're both propaganda outlets for plutocrats. Well, all three of them: CNBC, FBN and Fox News.

All of them push the idea that we'll have utopia if we cut loose the richest people in this nation, make them accountable for nothing, and give them all the breaks. And, of course, turn the hose on the poor, because all of our problems are because of them. That's a neat trick.

To sum it up: the three above are plutocratic mouthpieces; CNN and MSNBC are basically flaccid, impotent outlets who believe that indulging in the 50/50 false equivalency is being "balanced."

And it's worked: just look at what percentage of this country owns the staggering majority of its wealth. Even scarier, look how that has evolved in just the past decade, or two decades.
