She literally said her job is to control what people think. Why even bother defending these millionaires? Who makes excuses for the upper-class media when they punch down on us?

I wasn't defending anyone, I was making a point that this may have been taken out of context. Both sides do that, and it costs them credibility when they publish something meant to trick the less intelligent.

Why even bother defending these millionaires?

A million bucks ain't even enough to retire comfortably on.

Sure you were. Making excuses for the powerful? Who does that?

Particularly when you try to make up something she didn't say in attempt to cover for her. Why? MSNBC is a dumpster fire of a mainstream media outlet. They pull shit like this and then never apologize or even acknowledge it.

Why do you hate successful and powerful people? Who does that?

Losers
