[See NewsBusters for more.] For the first night of the Republican convention, MSNBC on Monday went to extremely liberal columnist Charlie Pierce to rant against all the “angry,” “old” “white people” attending. Host Chris Hayes also brought on the wife of a Democratic senator to ask her opinion on the GOP gathering. Questioned by Hayes about the Republican Party’s “identity crisis,” Pierce assailed, “If you are really optimistic, you could say this is the last time that old white people will command the Republican Party's attention, its platform, public face.” He continued, “That hall is wired by loud, unhappy, dissatisfied white people.”
