'Part of the GOP propaganda machine': Lefties bash MSNBC over Martin Bashir's Palin apology

As Twitchy reported earlier, MSNBC’s Martin Bashir issued an apology for vile comments last week regarding Sarah Palin.

Bashir’s apology didn’t fly with many on the Left, who blamed MSNBC for caving in:

I find it amusing Phil Griffin & @msnbc made Martin Bashir apologize to that dumbass Sarah Palin for calling her out on the slavery comments

@DanMarkis I think @msnbc should apologize to Bashir — and to public for calling @chucktodd a journalist.

@msnbc By U having Martin Bashir apologize 4 his remarks on Palin. You are telling the the world that what my ancestors endured is minor….

The following tweet is hilarious. MSNBC is now part of the “Republican propaganda machine”:

@Bashirlive It's shameful that Martin Bashir had to apologize for nothing. Just proves that MSNBC is part of Republican propaganda machine
