This has to be one of the Babylon Bee's best!

TEHRAN—In a bid to cut costs and save time, Iran has announced that its 24/7 state propaganda station will be replaced with an MSNBC broadcast.

The decision to broadcast MSNBC instead of official state propaganda came after an MSNBC reporter parroted the false claims of the Iranian government after yesterday's rocket attacks.

"Why spend so much time creating propaganda to brainwash our people when MSNBC could do it for us?" a representative for Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting said to reporters. "It takes a lot of work to put together news broadcasts that obscure the truth and tell the masses exactly what we want them to believe. But MSNBC has it down -- they really understand what we're trying to do. We decided we had to get those experts on our team."

The Iranian people say they have noticed no difference in the bias of the one television station they're allowed to watch after the switch occurred, except "maybe it skews a little more anti-America now."

"Between CNN and MSNBC, “Trump” and “jail” and/or “prison” has been mentioned 604 times since last Thursday"

Grabien reports CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin said voters in Iowa and New Hampshire should "go to Hell" because they get to have all the presidential candidates visiting there. In further "news,"

Since reports surfaced that Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D.-Calif.) told her Democratic colleagues that she’s looking past impeaching President Trump in favor of putting him behind bars, the media has become addled on asking her fellow lawmakers if they’ll help make Trump in prison a reality.

No interview with a Democratic congressman concludes these days without the requisite question about if they, too, support putting Trump in jail. And if the lawmaker expresses any kind of hesitation, these reporters almost always follow up with the same consolation question: Well, what about impeachment?

Between CNN and MSNBC, “Trump” and “jail” and/or “prison” has been mentioned 604 times since last Thursday, a mere four days. MSNBC’s led the way with 310 mentions of “Trump” and “prison” and/or “jail,” with CNN a close behind at 294 mentions.

And no news anchor is more addled on this habit than CNN’s Blitzer. In an interview with Rep. Jim Himes (D-Conn.), Blitzer asked three times in a row if Himes will seek to imprison the president. After failing to secure a hard commitment, Blitzer asked if the Connecticut congressman if he’d at least pursue impeachment charges.

Blitzer at one point asked with detectable optimism: “When Nancy Pelosi says she wants to see the president United States in prison, is that at all realistic?”

Blitzer’s CNN colleague, Brianna Keilar, likewise appears to try getting the ball moving on a prison sentence for the president, asking Sen. Bob Menéndez (D-N.J.): “Do you want to see the president in prison instead of impeaching him?”

Various media personalities across ABC, MSNBC, and elsewhere have likewise suggested Trump being imprisoned isn’t out of the realm of possibility

"control what people think? That's our job!"

Mika Brzezinski stepped in it big time, saying Trump is trying to control exactly what people think, and that's our job!

Objective journalism

Did I mention that today is Valentines Day? MSNBC is clear about who is their valentine.

Thanks to Andy at Ace of Spades, who notes that MSNBC is not even trying to hide their bias.

Jerks

How low do you have to stoop to be on MSNBC? Recently we had Alec Baldwin shout a gay slur at a photographer, Martin Bashir wishing someone would defecate in Sarah Palin's mouth, now two more people have ridiculed Mitt Romney's son for adopting a black child.

Another exclusive interview interrupted

Manhatten Infidel was all set to interview Phil Robertson of Duck Dynasty, when two vile creatures from MSNBC interrupted. Wouldn't you know it?
