Comcastic! New Owner Shakes Up MSNBC's Lineup

NBC has a new owner: the cable giant Comcast. With new ownership comes a dramatic revamp of the network's money-losing news operation, the flagship for which is MSNBC (or "MSLSD", which are the call letters it prefers).

In order to discover the inner workings of the revamp, Cub Reporter Biff Spackle decided to hack into Comcast's super-secret Gmail account. But you didn't hear that from me.

What he found will rock your world: Comcast's new lineup for MSNBC will position the channel to the right of Fox News. Check out the all-new lineup of shows on MSNBC:
