MSNBC Starts Disclosing Bain Capital Tie

By Alex Weprin 

  • Politico’s Dylan Byers notes that MSNBC has started to disclose NBCUniversal’s connection to Bain Capital when discussing GOP candidate Mitt Romney, who used to run the firm. Bain is co-owner of The Weather Channel, along with NBCU. The disclosure led to an awkward moment last night, when Ed Schultz noted Bain’s NBCU tie, and then proceeded to criticize the company for its business practices.
