I'm gonna tell you how stupid many of these MSM people are from personal experience:

So much of what we witness on "news" programs is about personalities, appearance, and entertainment. Few are hired for their knowledge, experience, or expertise. Too often they make themselves part of the story as in this case.

I suppose that is the reason that so many of us here prefer news hosts like Lawrence O'Donnell, Chris Hayes, Rachel Maddow, and Nicolle Wallace. For us, it is about substance, not style AND they don't try to interject themselves into a story. As soon as a journalist tries to become part of a story, I flip channels. I'll make exceptions now and then for O'Donnell who does have some good stories to tell.
