Earlier version mentioned that MSNBC Online used Internet Explorer and Windows Media Player -- I think that was refering to the fact that their web site was atrocious with any other browser. But nowdays it works equally well with Mozilla/Netscape, it also makes extensive use of Flash, so the idea that it is an "IE-specific" site no longer applies. --Nate 02:08 Dec 21, 2002 (UTC)
There's a newsroom in Redmond?
I've never seen it. Has anyone else? - Sekicho 03:38, Nov 24, 2004 (UTC)
Third place?
As far as I knew, Headline News had passed MSNBC for third place in the cable news ratings. Are we positive MSNBC is still third? Even the commercials for Headline News tout that they've moved up. Beginning 21:56, Dec 17, 2004 (UTC)
Redmond/3rd place
Overall, MSNBC is still in third place. Remember -- HLN craters in prime time.
MSNBC.com does have a newsroom in Redmond -- and there is a flash cam position there. A new show hosted by Ron P. Reagan will be anchored from Washington. - Boisemedia
MSNBC/NBC News Channel
I removed the line about MSNBC being renamed NBC News Channel. Until some credible source can verify this (and Drudge's blind sources don't count), it shouldn't be here. Boisemedia 02:03, May 9, 2005 (UTC)

Leans left? Despite his democratic credentials, he's pretty centrist, actually, and claims to have voted for Bush at least once. Check out his profile at media matters. I am changing the description to "centrist" for the time being. If you can think of a better descriptor, go for it, but not "leans to the left." 68.110.199.122 14:52, 8 September 2005 (UTC)
- I think he certainly leans to the left. Any conservative would laugh at "center right" - it's just not accurate 70.168.32.250 02:41, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
edit by Lugnuts6
lugnuts6 made some very extensive questionable edits of this article. can any of his information be confirmed?
- It's about half accurate, 30% wrong and 20% POV. I'll change the things I know are flat-out wrong, but to be honest I think it's so horribly written that we should just revert. Aaron 17:32, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
History
I am trying to piece together the history of MSNBC. Hopefully this will not turn out to be a POV-contentious issue like the other two news channels (and the fact is that there is a lot less stuff out there on MSNBC, which helps in cutting the volume down). I am working on it chronologically and so it will look somewhat abrupt at times, so bear with me. Unfortunately the sources are all newspaper articles dredged up from Lexis Nexis that would be painful to cite, but if anyone really wants me to do it, let me know and I can certainly reference whatever is necessary.

- I wish you the best of luck, Calwatch! Jerry Nachman once said on the air that MSNBC had changed its prime time lineup 69 times in the same amount of time that Fox had changed its lineup twice. There's a whole lot of detail out there if you dig deep enough ... waaaay too much detail probably. But I'd love to see it all in the article. And I certainly don't expect to see you have to cite every fact you uncover, not by a long shot. --Aaron 22:42, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
