CNBC’s Mark Haines on ‘one-sided crap’

Filed under: Media & Things — Tags: , , , , — Cap'n Ken @ 12:31 pm

From Squawk On The Street this morning – awesome flip-out by host Mark Haines over a Republican consultant’s answer to a question on trickle-down economics.

Long form:

Short form focusing on the kicker line – “I find that one-sided crap insulting”.

Right on, Haines. And it’s both sides. When is the media going to get tired of trotting out Republican Operative X vs. Democratic Operative Y to spew their propaganda? A host asks a question, the operative dodges it and spews whatever that day’s talking points are. I know I’m sick of it, and would love to see anchors call the operatives on this crap and shut them down.
