Video: NBC News’ Al Sharpton Baffled By Debt Ceiling Issue

NBC News must be so proud to have an incompetent race hustler as a news anchor:

In a baffling and confusing interview, NBC News' newest star Al Sharpton doesn't seem to understand the difference between the debt ceiling issue, credit rating downgrade and default. He also, clearly, doesn't listen to his guest's answers to his nonsensical questions.

It looks like Al Sharpton will get the permanent hosting job from 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM on NBC News' cable station MSNBC. This is a curious move for NBC News for a couple of reasons. First, and foremost, Al Sharpton is just plain awful as a host. He can't read a tele-prompter, he can't speak extemporaneously, and he is awful at interviewing guests. You don't have to take our word for it, see for yourself:

As for the moonbat that Sharpton replaces, he's gone back to the internet claiming to have as many fans as Madonna: KIM KARDASHIAN NUDE PICS! (How NBC News’ Former Host Got His YouTube Ratings)

When NBC News and Cenk Uygur "mutually agreed" to part ways last week, Uygur took to his internet news program to explain his departure. He boasted that his YouTube show had "up to a million views per day". This suggests that the world was hungry for Uygur's special brand of progressive political commentary.

We here at Breitbart.tv have taken a look inside the numbers and the fact is that political commentary is not what online viewers of “The Young Turks” keep clicking for. In fact, they aren’t looking for “news” either. The “up to a million views per day” are coming from folks interested in the same thing most online consumers are looking for: scantily clad women and sensationalistic viral stories.

Here is a very brief and hilarious overview of the top 50 shows presented by Uygur. After viewing them you’ll be asking yourself how NBC News ever hired him in the first place.

It's quite obvious - he's a tool:

The "of course!" news out of MSNBC: Sharpton Appears to Win Anchor Spot on MSNBC

After giving a nearly six-month tryout for the Internet talk show host Cenk Uygur, the cable news channel MSNBC is preparing to instead hand its 6 p.m. time slot to the Rev. Al Sharpton.

Mr. Sharpton’s imminent hiring, which was acknowledged by three people at the channel on condition of anonymity because the contract had not been signed, is significant in part because MSNBC and other news channels have been criticized for a paucity of minority hosts in prominent time slots. Mr. Sharpton, who is black and is a well-known civil rights activist and radio host, has been guest hosting in the 6 p.m. time slot for the last three weeks.

As for Cenk Uygur, he spent 17 minutes in a lame diatribe trying to explain why he sucks. From Story Balloon: Cenk Uygur FAILED At MSNBC. Now Listen To His Pathetic Excuses.

Race baiters like Al Sarpton and Jesse Jackson don't really care about black people. What they do care about is liberalism, and they use race to advance that agenda. If you doubt that, recall how the NAACP viciously attacked Clarence Thomas during his SCOTUS hearings, or how Al Sharpton get unhinged over a black man running for the Presidential nomination as a Republican:

This is what happens when the MSM stops doing its job - race baiting buffoons like Al Sharpton get comfortable spewing their vile racism and get used to not being asked tough questions about it. Then when they do, they are outraged:
