Dazzlingly brilliant insight
RT @Toure: NBC & ABC lead w tornadoes in TX. Tells you how little IRS & AP scandals mean to most Americans now.— johnny dollar (@johnnydollar01) May 16, 2013
We’ll give MSNBC host Touré even more evidence for his theory; why not? NBC, CBS and ABC kicked off their evening newscasts tonight with news on the monster storms that devastated parts of Texas last night and killed at least six. Just a “local weather story,” right? Like that time Hurricane Sandy had scuba divers swimming in the New York subway tunnels.
The 3 network evening newscasts leading tonight with tornado destruction in North Texas. At least six killed.

You know what that proves, right? The American public doesn’t care about the IRS scandal or the Benghazi scandal or the AP scandal. Because as we all know, network news has long let public interest dictate what it chooses to cover, how much, and when.
@Toure Conservatives will tell you that’s how little they matter to the liberal MSMedia.

Of course not. That’s like saying MSNBC is ideologically biased.
@Toure Are you serious?

@Toure The network you work for hasn't mentioned the tornadoes in Texas for hours.

Actually it tells us how desperate the #lapdogmedia is to avoid further coverage of the IRS and AP scandals. Must protect the regime! @Toure

Hey look @Toure, NBC Nightly News covering the IRS and AP scandals right now.
— Andy Marquis (@amarquis32) May 16, 2013
You know what else bugs Touré? That whole idea of covering both sides of an issue.

This example earned a coveted Touré retweet.
@Toure Why does media pretend every issue has a legitimate 2 sides argument? Climate change for example. It exists = only 1 side.
