I know you love nothing other than to cry "both sides and I'm neither"....
Oh, shit, why am I bothering. Go, take another hit of whatever you're on, enjoy.

MSNBC does care about facts more than Fox. I would never challenge that.
But just like Fox, it selectively presents and emphasizes certain facts over others. And like Fox, but not as dishonestly, it crafts a subtle narrative of the facts.
For instance, you'll never hear about racism driving Trump voters on Fox. It'll all be economic insecurity. On MSBC, you'll hear about economic insecurity driving Trump voters, but it'll be given short shrift, and racism will be focused on as though it were 90% of what drove Trump voters. It's subtle but insidious pushing of a certain narrative.
