On the latest episode of ‘Today In Media,’ media elites like MSNBC’s Ali Velshi, Craig Melvin, and even Yahoo News on Twitter make some ridiculous claims.

Watch:

Insensitive Ali Velshi doesn’t understand why Gen. John Kelly decided to honor Gold Star families by allowing only those who know Gold Star family members in the audience of a press conference to ask questions. MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell remembered the singular time she mentioned anything about Hillary Clinton – and it was “some years ago,” for less than two minutes.

Yahoo mislead it’s twitter followers, tweeting out a reference from an ad by candidate for Virginia governor Ed Gillespie regarding MS-13 gang members, but called members of the gang “heavily tattooed Latino men,” making Yahoo look foolish. Then, news anchor Craig Melvin is too happy to call anything a conspiracy, especially if it is a story that President Trump brings to light about “collusion between the FBI, Democrats, and Russians.”

Finally, for the number one spot, Lawrence O’Donnell (who previously freaked out about a few noises going on in his studio when his mic was hot) created controversy over a never-before-head racial slur, considering that he couldn’t say anything productive or worthwhile on Rep. Frederica Wilson’s comments attacking President Trump over a phone call he made to a Gold Star family member.

What crazy things will the media say next time? Stay tuned to find out!
