Very Serious

MSNBC is turning that weak SNL "Obama Has Done Nothing" sketch into a serious issue for the Obama administration.

Which is insane because MSNBC is mainly talking about that SNL sketch because they're obligated to promote NBC shows.

Do you follow the very serious line of succession here?

MSNBC has to promote sister network NBC. SNL is on NBC. MSNBC has to promote SNL -- airing sketch excerpts following every episode. SNL does an Obama sketch about how the president has evidently done "nothing." MSNBC, while promoting SNL, turns this into a legitimate point of debate. Why? Ultimately because MSNBC has to promote NBC. Very serious!

Incidentally, hasn't MSNBC spent the last six or nine months hosting "smackdown" debates about how the president is doing too much?
