New Lean Forward Ads from MSNBC Celebrate Liberal ‘Triumphs’ at Supreme Court (NewsBusters)

MSNBC released two new "Lean Forward" ads last week, the latest examples of the network's echo chamber thinking. In the spots, Chris Matthews and Rachel Maddow, respectively, cheered the Supreme Court's liberal decisions from the last term. The commercials brand the network as the official cheerleader of liberal causes.  In one, Matthews lauded, "This is, let's joyously agree, a time of triumph. The Supreme Court has validated the President's Affordable Care Act...  and it's a time for equality of marriage for gay and lesbian people."
