Mocking Sarah Palin? Come on Andrea. Leave that kind of crap for Olbermann or Rachel Madcow. You're suppose to be an unbiased news reporter.

Seriously, this is what news is reduced to?

Oh come on, it was funny since she had just bitched about Obama using a teleprompter. I don't think any either are a big deal, but it was humorous in that context.

Never heard of her; but if she did that, she gets brownie points in my book

You have to understand that a vast majority of all members - air talent, editors, etc... of MSNBC ardently support Obama and are scared ****less of Palin. Mitchell has been hiding behind some "journalist" moniker for a long time but she's a true Progressive shill like Olbermann, Maddow, Shultz and the rest. MSNBC is the Liberal circle jerk center of the media.

Save yourself some time and sanity and watch a station with at least some credibility.

Nobody is scared of Palin. That is just a conservative talking point. Repeating it constantly won't make it true.

For the most part, yes.

I used to figure that the days of real journalism died with Uncle Walter. But, the more I learned about Cronkite, the more I realized unbiased journalism has always been as mythical as griffons.

I don't believe they are scared of Sarah Palin. I believe they think it's cute and acceptable to mock an attractive woman. The press is run by liberals, so it makes it OK in their book.

I s'pose with that frog skin & bulbous nose on Andrea Mitchell, she harbors some issues with Palin, but unlikely it's re: politcs.

Actually according to Huffinton Post, where the first picture from this appearance started circulating, the notes on her hand were for the Q&A session that followed after the speech. I reckon this will just be more partisan wagon circling, but if Obama needs teleprompters to speak to school kids I suppose Palin can jot a few lines on her palm for a press conference. Obama does not need a teleprompter for press conferences anymore, he just does not hold them.

Also, I don't believe the "Daily Run Down" is a hard news show, but a commentary upon the news show.

It was stupid. News is getting dumber all of the time.

But Andrea Mitchell is *suppose* to be a hard news reporter. There was a time when these people attempted to hide their bias.

Like I said, I expect this stuff from an Olbermann, Maddow, Limbaugh or Beck, not a news correspondent.
