they can't help it, they have to embed a flash 'cos that's all the MSNBC provides, since they are still reliant on Flash Media Streaming for their videos (Adobe drm'ed RTMPE) so it's not iClarified's fault it's in Flash, if you want to blame someone, blame MSNBC!

Yes blame the platypus. If your site iC is posting something about a Mac for Mac fans using Mac products, you better make sure your audience can see it! Or just don't post it at all. And then blame someone else! Man. You must be American.
