MSNBC is just completely one-sided in ways you can't imagine until you actually see it.
I never thought I'd say this...but CNN is starting to look like the closest thing we have in the U.S. to honest reporting (and that ain't saying much)

It's all corporate media. They're beholden to other corporate advertisers.
And fyi - MSNBC has Joe Scarborough - a right winger - on in the morning. And this "liberal" network kicked Phil Donahue off the air - despite the fact that his was their highest rated show at the time - because he would not let up on his criticism of the impending Iraq invasion. MSNBC is owned by GE - a huge defense contractor that profited handsomely from the bloody, needless invasion. It's a corporate network.
Public and reader/listener/viewer supported media is beholden only to their supporters.
Some to try:
PBS
Alternet
Slate
Salon
Buzzflash
Some may have a few advertisers, but the bulk of their $$ comes from their viewers.
