What exactly is MSNBC??

(1/2) > >>

Xeen:
I was just wondering what exactly is the news channel MSNBC? Is it part of NBC owned by Microsoft? Or is it Microsoft funding NBC news? Or what??

And I'm just interested...why on Earth did Bill Gates decide to make his own news channel?

Laukev7:
Microsoft already owns most of the computer market. They probably want to leverage their monopoly to become another AOL (ie. own the media).

Pissed_Macman:
One of the bigger news networks that tries to copy CNN along with Fox News (and MSNBC apparently gets crap ratings from what I've heard).

Stilly:
from what I've seen all they do on msnbc is make cheap cracks at fox news

not that fox news is a great way to get your news

Siplus:
at least fox news is better then cnn, msnbc, bbc, cspan, whatever other new networks there are
