Just when you think cable news’ insatiable desire to fill every second of its 24 hours has hit bottom, they find a new low. On Friday afternoon, the landlord of the apartment that San Bernardino shooters Syed Farook and Tashfeen Malik lived in with their 6-month-old baby opened the dwelling up for the media, and notwithstanding the questionable legality or propriety of that move, MSNBC elected to broadcast the macabre tour live, in real time (CNN started with an audio-only report, and waited a restrained 20 minutes or so before showing video).

The result was, of course, a shitshow that veered from useless to creepy and useless, and potentially harmful and useless. The whole thing was presided over by an obviously mortified Andrea Mitchell, who pulled the plug after ten minutes, which was ten minutes too long. Here are some “highlights.”

Ironically, reporter Kerry Sanders starts off the proceedings by throwing shade at an Inside Edition reporter who paid $1000.00 to jump the line instead of having the class to crowd in like everybody else. What’s fascinating is to hear the thought process that’s usually kept off-camera when gathering news for LATER presentation, as Sanders decides to cleverly go where everybody else ain’t: the baby’s room!

    “I want to take a look at the calendar, see if anything’s marked on the calendar. I don’t see anything. That’s November. Let’s go over here to December. See if anything of importance was marked on the calendar here. Nothing there. It’s just a typical sort of calendar with pictures.”

    I’m surprised they didn’t Green Screen in a spooky advent calendar.

    American news outlets are a joke. I learn a lot more about what is going in this country from British, French, and Japanese news.

    It IS the season for helpful ghosts, right?

      I have generated 74,000 dollars so far this year working online and I am a full time student. I am attached with an online business entity that I heard about and I have earned such great cash. It is really user friendly and I feel myself lucky to have that option. Why not try this. sdt….

    For some reason, this makes me think of Geraldo… and the Treasure of the Vault of Capone.
