MSNBC has been crazier than usual lately, and that’s saying something, but check out this slimewad tweet about a new ad for Cheerios:
https://twitter.com/msnbc/status/428695592047759360
The right wing will “hate” the biracial family depicted in the Cheerios ad? Um, first of all, they really have short memories over at MSNBC, don’t they?

Insanity at MSNBC is nothing new, but that’s big time douchebaggery even for them.
This really a tweet from MSNBC. Good lord they're awful: https://t.co/ve2ainN6WB

i like how @MSNBC has positioned itself politically as socialist, and tone-wise, as seventh graders with impulse control problems.

Imagine if Fox News tweeted something like what @msnbc just did. Obama would have a press conference about it ASAP.

@msnbc you disgrace a once great news network. How @NBCNews puts up with your racism is beyond me. #MyRightWingBiracialFamily

Not that MSNBC will pay attention to anything that blows their false narrative to smithereens, but non-libs have been tweeting some wonderful family photos to counter MSNBC’s hateful lies and smears:

“Bigoted, sanctimonious pricks” about says it.
Actor Nick Searcy joined the fray to counter MSNBC’s disgusting comment:

This request will most likely be met with crickets:
Hey, coward who published racist, sanctimonious @msnbc tweet smearing conservatives & "rightwing" biracial families: Show yourself. Own it.

Update: MSNBC has deleted its tweet. Here is a screencap for posterity:

Update: MSNBC has apologized.
Earlier, this account tweeted an offensive line about the new Cheerios ad. We deeply regret it. It does not reflect the position of msnbc.
— MSNBC (@MSNBC) January 30, 2014
We are deleting the earlier offensive tweet. It does not reflect msnbc's position and we apologize.
— MSNBC (@MSNBC) January 30, 2014
Update: So, MSNBC apologized for the tweet, but what about the article that claimed there was “conservative backlash” against an earlier Cheerios ad featuring the biracial family?
No apology. The sentence was just quietly deleted from the MSNBC website.
