Comcast Knows What Liberals Watch

According to Comcast, Fox News is for conservatives, CNN is for independents, and MSNBC is (oops!) also for conservatives.

Comcast Spotlight, the ad sales division of my cable provider, is currently running a commercial to pitch candidates and issue advocates on the benefits of (you guessed it) buying time on Comcast.

To help political advertisers reach the right viewers, they conveniently provide this simple sorting:

Liberal
  • TV Land
  • Comedy Central
  • Bravo
  • Discovery
  • BET
Conservative
  • The History Channel
  • Fox News
  • MSNBC
  • A&E
  • CMT
Independent
  • VH1
  • Spike
  • HGTV
  • CNN
  • TLC
Mickeleh's Take: It's a relief to have Comcast confirm what we already know: there is no news network for liberals. Unless you count Comedy Central. (Don't these guys know about Keith Olbermann?)
