MSNBC writer, producer admits network has 'made their viewers dumber,' is 'indistingu
Quote:An MSNBC staffer revealed that the network is doing everything in its power to help Vice President Kamala Harris defeat former President Donald Trump in November, according to an undercover investigation by O'Keefe Media Group (OMG). He also admitted that the network has contributed to the dumbing down of their viewers, have "narrowed" their views, and is "indistinguidable" from the Democrat Party.
Basel Hamdan, a writer and producer for MSNBC News, told an OMG journalist that the network has gone all-in on ensuring Harris wins the White House, describing MSNBC as a "mouthpiece" and propaganda machine for the DNC.
"The type of people who work in Democratic politics, and in the campaign, are a lot of the same type of people that would appear on air on MSNBC," Hamdan told the undercover journalist. "It hammers home the point that I'm making: that this news network is indistinguishable from the party."
Hamdan chastised the network for being "very partisan Democrat," claiming that MSNBC is "aligned too closely" with the Democratic Party and would benefit more if it were not. Furthermore, he claimed, according to the video, that MSNBC's ultra-left-leaning slant has taught its viewers to dislike not only Republicans but also moderate Democrats.
The producer said that MSNBC has made its viewers "dumber" over the years, saying it conducts "bad journalism" to maintain its progressive slant, which includes pushing misinformation on its audience.
"[MSNBC] should tell the truth from a progressive perspective but they shouldn't be tied to a political party. They just are way too cozy with Democratic politicians," he said. "The anchor and the politician are just in total agreement about everything."
Pressing the matter further, the undercover OMG journalist asked Hamdan: "Do you feel like MSNBC is doing enough to help the Harris campaign?"
"I mean, they're doing all they can to help," he said, explaining that the network has been "amplifying" the VP and "what her message of the day is."
Basel Hamdan appears to have locked down his social media accounts and erased his LinkedIn profile after OMG Media Group issued a teaser for their upcoming MSNBC investigation, which has not yet been made public. The Post Millennial obtained transcripts from the investigation before its release date to write this report.

To see how dumbed down the democrats are just look at the ones who post here. Add up the IQs of the 5 or 6 up and it’s less than the # of Babe Ruth’s HRs
