MSNBC is marginally center-left and they’re broadly considered to follow mainstream journalistic standards. Whether or not you personally dislike them, it’s highly unlikely that they ran a story citing sources who don’t exist and the text makes it clear that their reporting is based on that information and has not been confirmed independently.
- gnabgib 5mo agoWhile this site includes MS in the name, it's not MSNBC. It's Versant Media https://www.ms.now/msnbc-info/contact-us-n1301857 https://www.ms.now/msnbc-info/contact-us-n1301857
- acdha 5mo agoIt’s MSNBC after Comcast spun NBC Universal out and then NBC Universal decided to spin their cable channels out into Versant. The name changed last year so they wouldn’t use the NBC name & logo of a company they were no longer part of. https://apnews.com/article/msnbc-ms-now-new-company-network-tv-a3813857af61282876ba847afa1c7ef9 https://apnews.com/article/msnbc-ms-now-new-company-network-... In any case, my point was simply that these are mostly the same journalists playing by the same rules as before. It’s not three Moldavian bloggers pretending to be midwesterners.
