Funny how you make these propagandist accusations, even though she consistantly reaches out to Right-wing government officials and reporters and tries to remain as unbiased as possible.

But that would require actual effort and go against "Teh Ebil Left!" narrative that most Right-wing and Libertarians have, and we know certain people on this site have problems with that...

Bernie Sanders has appeared on Fox. What's your point? Having people who disagree with you on your program is not evidence of being unbiased.

This is truly fascinating to watch people who would normally scold Fox News and conservative news sources are now jumping through hoops to defend Rachel Maddow.

I'm purposefully putting as minimal effort into this as possible.

A debate involving how Rachel Maddow is biased is truly wondrous to be had.

Now was that so hard?

But congratulations. You did find 6 things for a show that started in 2008 and has over 400 episodes.

You have shown she can make mistakes versus being an outright hack.

Interestingly, studies show Fox News is more factual than MSNBC.

No, that just means they do more factual reporting. In other words, MSNBC is predominantly commentary.

I'd believe that. Of American TV news networks, CNN is probably the best.

I like BBC, though.

Ok. How is she "biased" and how is she wrong?

I would claim she has a left wing bias, that does not necessarily mean she is wrong.
