Somebody is in trouble over at MSNBC, for letting an online poll get out of hand. "Give President Obama a grade," MSNBC asked websurfers. And they did, as observed by WorldNetDaily.
Of course, these results, "flunking" the President, were not what MSDNC had in mind.
And probably not what the loyal-liberal audience had in mind. Most likely, some clever conservative with a computer program figured out how to game the poll, and did so. Fair enough, that's the online world for you.
The Cable Gamer is old enough to remember that the "MS" in MSNBC stood for Microsoft. The original MSNBC was supposed to be a collaboration between the software giant and NBC. But obviously none of MSFT's computer savvy lingers in the revised MSNBC, which, having abandoned any pretense of competent geekery, is now simply the Air America of TV.
But hey MSNBC, if you know what's good for you, you'll pull this poll down--because it's badly off-message for the next bailout that your parent company, GE, needs from the Obama Administration.
So it's time for a "reset"! Done right this time!!
