An undercover investigation by the O’Keefe Media Group (OMG) found an MSNBC producer admitting to the broadcaster’s role in promoting Donald Trump in the election campaign.
The 11-minute video (below) released on Thursday, Oct. 3, shows producer Basel Hamdan acknowledging MSNBC as a “mouthpiece for the Democratic Party”, revealing that the corporation is “doing all they can to help” Kamala Harris defeat Donald Trump in next month’s presidential election.
Hamdan said MSBNC’s coverage reflects Harris’ messaging on a particular day in his conversation with an undercover female journalist. He added that the network’s audience had “dumbed down” in recent years, allowing the network to relax on critical journalism.
“The type of people who work in Democratic politics and in the campaign are often the same type of people who appear on air at MSNBC,” Hamdan continued. “It reinforces the point I’m making: this news network is indistinguishable from the party.”
The producer has since locked his social media presence in the wake of a furious viewership.
Although MSNBC has long been considered a left-wing broadcaster with extreme liberals such as Joy Reid regularly featuring, the bursting of an open secret is nevertheless still shocking.
Several commentors on social media also wondered how Hamdan failed to spot the undercover journalist.
