Uygur later told Olbermann that he felt like MSNBC sacrifices truth for access to elected officials, and he wanted no part in it.
“Some of the hosts on MSNBC sometimes do criticize Democrats, but when they do it’s a big thing, like, ‘Oh, I’m out on a limb, look at this! Okay, let’s do it,’” Uygur opined, making an exception for MSNBC host Dylan Ratigan, who he said has “no hesitation” in attacking Democrats. “Whereas, we think, ‘Of course we’d criticize Democrats!’ The Republican Party is 99 percent corrupt, and we’re probably being generous there. The Democratic Party is probably about 80 percent corrupt. …So, if you’re not putting that out to your audience, you’re doing them a great disservice.”
