Craig Crawford quits MSNBC, tired of being booked to do “boring” hit pieces on Sarah Palin.
Nice to know at least one reporter at MSNBC has some integrity will others follow Craig Crawford only time will tell.
I think bankrupted Air American has moved over to MSNBC.
Reporters on MSNBC fight and degrade their guest going as far as cutting the guest mike off if they disagree with MSNBC it has became a circus.
MSNBC ratings has been in the crappy for some time,could the hand writing be on the wall MSNBC is on it's way out?

(Craig Crawford MSNBC Signs Off)

“Three months short of my current contract,” he wrote, “I sent the following to the boss, [MSNBC President] Phil Griffin: ‘Phil, Just wanted to give you the heads up that my situation with MSNBC has become so unrewarding for me that I’ve decided to move on. — Craig’”

In an email, Crawford tells TVNewser, “This was a long time coming. I haven’t felt like a good fit for MSNBC since the presidential campaign, and their hard turn toward point-of-view programming.

Msnbc started going down hill when guys like Lester Holt were driven out, he was one of the few good ones left at the time.Probably the last one with REAL integrity there. I don't blame this guy for leaving either.

Nobody should work at MSNBC or at Faux News either, if they don't want to promote the boss's propaganda. However, I didn't see him cite Sarah Palin as an issue. I did see him cite the bias against the Clintons.

If you had opened the link you would have seen this part of his letter,

“So many of my booking calls lately have been for segments bashing Sarah Palin, for instance. I was boring myself, and surely the viewers.

Sorry, my error. I don't take links on social sites anymore, having recently unleashed havoc upon my computer with a totally innocuous looking link.

The last time I saw Crawford on there he looked uncomfortable to me. I had wondered what was wrong with him.

He use to be a guest on the Don Imus show quite often.

I haven't watched MSNBC in three or four years; I can't even picture Craig Crawford. But I give him a nod for doing the right thing. It takes one years to build a reputation, and once destroyed, it's hell getting it back. He may have saved his reputation. And that reputation should help him land another job.

I've been wondering why Craig hasn't been on very often lately. I wish him the best, I've always enjoyed hearing his take on the issues. It's not at all unusual for people to become dissatisfied with a particular network or to be unhappy with how they're being used.
