53. They did cover the racist comments by the UFC fighter. They played the tape.

They talked about who the fighter guy is. I had MSNOW on in the background. I am not sure what time it was when they played it - sometime this afternoon.

I agree with some other comments - MSNOW does a good job - better than all other broadcast options, IMHO. They have some anchors who shine and are the best of their profession. The chyrons are written by production staff. There were a lot of things wrong with that UFC spectacle, and being lavish was one of them...with all that is going on in the world.

At times today the event was lambasted by MSNOW because our tax dollars paid for it, and it was not free to the country. There were many things wrong with the event.

I do not believe MSNOW was avoiding specifics aspects of the UFC event that warrant analysis. They are covering a firehose of important stories.
