@LiberalLibrarian Right, Championship. I have heard of it.

@LiberalLibrarian Which league is below Premier?

@LiberalLibrarian I saw an analyst on twitter saying Chelsea looked "dangerous" despite the outcome...

@LiberalLibrarian So, how disappointing is a draw? Below expectations? Not below expectations?

@LiberalLibrarian It's okay. I'd have to care first to root for them anyway.

@LiberalLibrarian So, should I be rooting for Liverpool because the Red Sox owners own them too?

@mcfate Um, no. "Agree to disagree" is a polite way of saying "we don't agree, and we both have a right to our opinion, so there's no point in continuing to discuss it."

That's not granting or denying permission, or seeking argument, or anything else.

@mcfate Did anyone suggest you do?

@mcfate Then we'll agree to disagree.

@mcfate Venting doesn't have to have any expectation of changing anything.

@mcfate Actually, I doubt they would. They have an ideological line, and they're proud of it. Yes, of course they say their line is "truth." But they don't hide their alignment.

@mcfate I don't seek any recourse other than pouring scorn on them. But they claim to pursue ideals they actually trample on for eyeballs and cowardly narrative promotion, and it betrays what they *claim* to be upholding.

@mcfate But NBC is supposedly mainstream. Gateway and the Intercept are openly partisan.

@PoliticalEd He's leaving soon. But they're promoting him (or kicking him upstairs) to "chief political analyst" for NBC.

@mcfate Yes, that is very likely true. But it remains vile when the media spurns its responsibilities in order to promote a horserace with a fascist.

@dwalace4 Yeah, but they're kicking him upstairs to "chief political analyst" for the network.

@mcfate Of course not. But what use is that to devout both-sideser like Todd?

@pewtergod

@Rustbelt_Dem Oh, I don't watch. I never watch that creep... or much TV news generally. But the Rs are hyping that screenshot on social media and I happened upon it.

Chuck Todd is a stain on journalism, as usual.

#Trump is barely any younger than Biden, and far less fit physically and mentally. Biden has no role in handling the Hunter investigation, which is solely controlled by a Trump appointee.

But Todd wants what he always wants: the R narrative.

He bewailed Trump as an existential threat to journalism and the country, calling him a "nightmare." But hey, getting him back means more eyeballs, right?
