Fans of Thom Hartmann... How do you feel about him working for RT?
I really hope Thom Hartmann is a mole. Cause as it stands, I can't cotton racist!!11! to a man who openly associates with the people who attacked our democracy so successfully. He's a smart guy. Why doesn't he know better?
(My guess is he does know better, but he's got bills to pay--no different than any corrupt cop who thinks he can still do his job)

1. There was another guy with bills to pay.
I believe his name was Quisling.

5. Thank you!!
I've been calling Republicans Quislings ever since they started falling in line behind that big petulant bully. They'd rather have a Яepublican tyrant than a loyal Democrat. This is the house that Fox News built. This is why I'll never let a Republican say "country first" again. When push came to shove, they chose their Manchurian Cheetoh over the interests of America. They sold us out for a ****ing tax cut.

16. this feels different. it is. it's worse than any nightmare I've ever had.
It seems like America is dead and buried by ignorance and callousness. Undermining our public schools was the writing on the wall. Maybe they blamed unions, but they were after our very soul as a nation. And they destroyed it for the sake of a handful of extremely wealthy people.
And now Warren Buffet will take part in "The Apprentice".
What the hell happened?
It's going to get worse. Trust me.

8. Not unlike MSNBC...
A certain amount of liberal ideology is permitted.
So long as it is not a challenge to their long-time corporate goals.

9. I don't get RT because it's generally much harder on Republicans than Dems.
It's like Moscow sort of leaves them alone for the most part, however I did see a report on RT a while back that shot down the idea of Russia hacking the elections so it's kind of a mixed bag. As far as Thom Hartmann is concerned? If they don't censer him he probably feels comfortable there. Wes Clark worked for Fox News but I had no problem with that because he use to argue the liberal perspective there. So as long as he wasn't pushing anything anti-American I don't really have a problem with Hartmann working there. He may have second thoughts now after what is breaking. I think it's time for him to leave. I would like to point out that he vigorously defended Hillary Clinton and was very hard on Trump.
Oh, you noticed that, huh?
Evidently, it's all fAkEnOOOs!!!111

12. Thom Hartmann does not work for RT.
He owns his own show that is aired on RT. We need more shows like his, not less.
Whoops....

14. Absolutely, does anyone making these comments
actually listen to him. With precious few progressive voices out there why bash the few we have. If you have some content from his show you can point to let's hear it.

15. Talk about your fake news!
Where on earth did you hear that? Please name your source! I searched the web for almost a half hour and could find nothing to support your claim.
He's one of the most progressive media personalities on the planet. I've been a listener and a fan for over a decade! I've learned so much from him because he approaches the issues from a historical perspective. Republicans spar with him at their own risk! I've listened to him eat them for lunch without losing his cool.
He writes a s well as he speaks. I own almost every book he has written! I love him to pieces.
