[quote] ‘Morning Joe’ Viewers Furious About Sen. Ben Sasse Appearance: ‘The Hypocrisy Is Mind-Blowing’ (Video)

Sen. Ben Sasse took part in a lengthy interview on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” on Thursday, but it didn’t sit well with viewers.

“Ben Sasse on Morning Joe,” complained one about the Nebraska Republican’s appearance on a show that has consistently taken swipes at top Republican elected officials. “I just can’t with this s—. The hypocrisy is mind blowing.”

The criticism of Sasse’s appearance came not from the political elite and blue checks of Twitter, but from average MSNBC viewers, who shot off tweets saying that if they wanted to see Republicans criticizing the Democratic administration of President Joe Biden, they’d turn on Fox News.

Sasse was widely criticized for what viewers of the left-leaning channel saw as his silence on other major political issues over the past few months, including the deadly Capitol riot of Jan. 6. Relatively small accounts saw massive engagement as politically-minded social media users retweeted and liked their critiques of the appearance.

Sasse spoke to host Joe Scarborough at length about the ongoing crisis in Afghanistan, saying he wants to see evacuation efforts for Americans extend past the deadline “until every American is out.”

“There is no excuse for leaving Americans behind. The president seems to be content with a plan that is going to end up in some sort of a hostage situation,” he said. “It’s completely indefensible. We need to finish the job. Obviously, I’m against the withdrawal decision, but that’s not what we’re talking about right now; we’re talking about the fact that this evacuation has been so ham-handedly planned and the administration continues to just go out and try to take these weird victory laps every 36 hours like things are working well. Things are not working well.”

But many commenters took Sasse to task for his comments — and also for even appearing on the show.

Sen. Ben Sasse spreads some major misinformation on #MorningJoe Sasse talked about leaving no American behind, but according to the White House 4,500 of the 6,000 Americans in the country are already out, and they talkin to another 500.

National Religious Broadcasters spokesperson fired after pro-vaccine remarks on 'Morning Joe'

The spokesperson for the National Religious Broadcasters, an international association of evangelical communicators, was fired Friday following an appearance on MSNBC's “Morning Joe” earlier this month in which he discussed how his faith motivated him to get the Covid-19 vaccine.

Pastor Daniel Darling appeared on the cable news show last Wednesday to talk about his most recent column for USA Today titled "Why as a Christian, and an American, I got the COVID vaccine."

In his conversation with MSNBC host Joe Scarborough, Darling said faith played an important role in his decision to get vaccinated, particularly the idea that "we ought to love our neighbor." By getting the vaccine, people don't only protect themselves, but become less likely to infect others, he said.

Darling also urged leaders to stop politicizing vaccines "because I don’t want to see anyone else die of Covid," he said.

His exit from the National Religious Broadcasters came after the organization determined his comments violated an internal policy of remaining neutral about Covid-19 vaccines. Darling was fired two days after refusing to sign a letter admitting insubordination.

The National Religious Broadcasters did not respond to NBC News' request for comment on Saturday.

According to their website, "NRB works to protect the free speech rights of our members."

In a statement to NBC News, Darling said he is "sad and disappointed that my time at NRB has come to a close. As someone who has been profoundly shaped by Christian media, it was an honor to work on behalf of our members who strive every day to deliver the Gospel around the world."

"I’m grieved that the issues that divide our country are also dividing Christians. My desire is to build bridges and bring Christians together around our common mission of loving Jesus and loving our neighbor, but sadly we are sometimes tempted by the same things that tempt the world," Darling said in the statement, which was shared by a representative.

"While I will not continue my work at NRB, I will continue to try to unify believers around the truth of the Gospel," Darling, who also hosts "The Way Home" podcast, said.

[quote] NBC Correspondent Shaquille Brewster Accosted On Air During Live Shot Of Hurricane Ida Aftermath

Shaquille Brewster, an NBC News and MSNBC correspondent, was doing a live shot on the Hurricane Ida aftermath in Gulfport, MS, when a man jumped out of a white pickup truck and ran toward him and began shouting something at him.

Brewster tried to reorient the crew away from the intrusion, telling host Craig Melvin, “I am going to turn this way, because we deal with some people every once in while.” He then went on with his live shot, but then said he would throw it back to Melvin as the man continued shouting. The man then got back into the frame and confronted Brewster face to face.

“Hey, hey, hey, hey,” Melvin responded, telling viewers, ‘We’re going to check back in with Shaq Brewster just to make sure all is well. There’s a lot of crazy out there. A lot of crazy.”

Melvin went on to another segment but later said that Brewster was OK.

“Appreciate the concern guys. The team and I are all good!” Brewster later wrote on Twitter.

Melvin later wrote, “This is beyond unacceptable and disgusting. @shaqbrewster was trying to do his job on a beach in Gulfport, MS. Shaq is ok. This guy who nearly attacked him clearly is not.”

He told viewers, “I do want to note here for a moment, you probably saw or heard a few moments ago a correspondent was disrupted by some whacky guy in his live shot there in Mississippi. Pleased to report that Shaquille Brewster is doing just fine. Shaq is okay.”

MSNBC President Rashida Jones said in a statement, “Shaq Brewster is an exceptional journalist. Like the consummate professional, he did not let someone intimidate him from doing his job. We’re glad he and the team are safe, and we couldn’t be more proud and supportive of their work.”

Dan Shelley, executive director of the Radio Television Digital News Association, wrote, Among the dangers facing journalists today — angry members of the public who either don’t like, or don’t understand, the news media’s role in society. We @RTDNA are grateful @shaqbrewster is OK.”

It will be a very different show if it is like Brian's 11 PM show, Brian doesn't give much of his opinion other than a few snarky comments and let his guests do most of the talking.

[quote] Suspect Identified In On-Air MSNBC Assault, Arrest Warrants Issued By Mississippi Police

A man who might have violated his probation in Ohio by traveling to Mississippi is being sought by police in the storm-hit state as a suspect in yesterday’s on-air assault of MSNBC correspondent Shaquille Brewster.

The Gulfport Police Department in Mississippi has identified the suspect as Benjamin Eugene Dagley of Wooster, Ohio, and today issued arrest warrants charging him with two counts of Simple Assault, one count of Disturbance of the Peace, and one count of Violation of Emergency Curfew.

According to the department, the suspect was traveling in a Ford truck on Highway 90 during a city-wide curfew caused by Hurricane Ida. After public assistance in identifying the man, police reviewed Dagley’s criminal history and contacted Ohio’s Cuyahoga County Adult Probation Department regarding a potential violation of probation. One of the conditions of Dagley’s probation is a travel restriction.

Gulfport police believe that Dagley is no longer on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, and is traveling in a white 2016 Ford F150 bearing Ohio License Plate number PJR1745. The police ask anyone knowing of his whereabouts or spotting the truck contact their local law enforcement agency.

Brewster, an NBC News and MSNBC correspondent, was doing a live shot in the hurricane’s aftermath yesterday when a man jumped out of a white pickup truck and ran toward him, shouting and seeming to rush up against the reporter.

Watch footage of the incident below.

The live shot quickly cut to MSNBC host Craig Melvin, who appeared startled as he said, “Hey, hey, hey, hey. We’re going to check back in with Shaq Brewster just to make sure all is well. There’s a lot of crazy out there. A lot of crazy.”

Brewster later tweeted, “Appreciate the concern guys. The team and I are all good!,” though Melvin later wrote, “This is beyond unacceptable and disgusting. @shaqbrewster was trying to do his job on a beach in Gulfport, MS. Shaq is ok. This guy who nearly attacked him clearly is not.”

MSNBC President Rashida Jones later said in a statement, “Shaq Brewster is an exceptional journalist. Like the consummate professional, he did not let someone intimidate him from doing his job. We’re glad he and the team are safe, and we couldn’t be more proud and supportive of their work.”

The on-air incident apparently isn’t the first time the suspect has been caught misbehaving on camera: A 2017 Cleveland Plain Dealer report indicated that Dagley faced criminal charges after being caught on tape breaking into an electroplating company he previously owned and drilling holes in various chemical tanks. A security guard at the Cleveland Plating company required medical attention after being exposed to the hazardous chemicals from the tanks.

[quote] CLEVELAND, Ohio -- A Wooster man faces criminal charges after he broke into an electroplating company he once owned and drilled holes in tanks of dangerous chemicals, Cleveland police investigators said. The incident sent one employee to the hospital for exposure to toxic chemicals, and risked a potential environmental disaster, according to a Cleveland police report.

[quote] Benjamin Dagley, 50, is charged with breaking and entering in the Aug. 22 [2018] incident at Cleveland Plating on East 134th Street in the South Collinwood neighborhood. Surveillance footage later revealed Dagley drilled into tanks of sodium cyanide, hydrochloric acid, yellow chromate, ferrous chloride, and sulfuric acid, according to a current owner, Ed Cochran.

[quote] "If you mix the (cyanide and hydrochloric acid), you basically have the cyanide gas of World War I," Cochran said. "It certainly would produce a toxic vapor that could kill." Employees told police that the released chemicals "are severe enough to cause a large scale catastrophe, and Dagley knew what he was doing," the report says.

by Anonymousreply 169September 3, 2021 12:08 PM

I said this before but I'll say it again. The chilliness between Rachel and Chris can be traced back to the Presidential debates when Rachel chose Joy and Nicolle to join her at the commentators' desk in the pre-shows to the various debates. And yes, it was Rachel's choice who sat there with her. Or, if you want to believe it was the MSNBC producers' choice, let's just say that Rachel didn't support Chris.

And as if it wasn't bad enough getting snubbed, those hours before these Presidential debates were the 8 pm hour, Chris' hour, effectively sending him off into unwanted vacations at a momentous time in history, which was really humiliating. The 3 ladies then would return later in the evening to review the debates and still, there was no presence for Chris. He was really sidelined.

I've always thought Chris was the smartest one they got - but since when has that been a priority. Anyway, I hope with her cutting back her air-time, he'll have a better chance to stand out and shine.

I agree with your assessments R171 except Lawrence has always struck me as "special". Just little things - like pronouncing Sergei as Sir-Jay. There are other examples I can't remember but he gets little details wrong that he wouldn't if he were - well, as sharp as Chris. I'd put Rachel second, she's slower on the uptake than Chris but puts her back into digging in and gets there eventually - and maybe Nicolle third.

Of the big names, the other men are laughable. Almost makes me miss Chris Matthews - well, no not really. Remember that tale of how he elbowed Phil Donahue off of MSNBC when it was a newborn? I'm still pissed about that. I loved Phil. Though his taste in wives reminds me of Prince Hazbeen.

I'm sure it was the network's choice, not Rachel's, to pair her with Nicolle and Joy for the presidential debates. If it had been Rachel's choice, she would have wanted Chris as one of her co-anchors. But Joy will always be one of the anchors for any of these special events (even though Chris and Lawrence have far more knowledge and experience) because MSNBC doesn't want to be criticized for having an all-white anchor team. Choosing Nicolle over Chris definitely was a slap in the face to Chris, but Nicolle seems to be the "hot rising star." The network gives her two hours a day while all the other hosts (excluding Morning Joe) get one.

I'm wondering if all those Privileged White Guys are in danger. During the 2019 Democratic primary, MSNBC harassed Beto O'Rourke every 5 minutes: how dare he as a Privileged White Guy run for President? They singled him out for attacks as apparently Biden, Bernie, Buttigieg, etc. are not Privileged White Guys.

Cannot stand Melber but he's a lawyer which is useful for them and he always packs his shows inexplicably with black rappers to get their opinion on something or other, but no doubt to try to make himself look like a Cool Privileged White Man.

I don't think it was Rachel's decision to make. Rachel may be the star, and she is in charge of her own show, but she doesn't run the whole network. If she did, she would never ask to be paired with Brian Williams for special events because the two of them together are always very awkward. If Rachel were truly free to do whatever she wanted, she never would have gushed about how wonderful it was back when MSNBC hired Greta Van Susteren. Surely, Rachel knew that Greta had no place on MSNBC. Hell, if Rachel ran the network, she'd probably fire Joe Scarborough. Rachel is powerful, but she's not THAT powerful.

Nicolle Wallace has the advantage none of the others have: she worked on political campaigns, she worked in the White House and understands how the GOP works and how it turned to authoritarianism and overt fascism. She has no patience with Democrats trying to play nice with the GOP. The GOP never plays nice. She's also a very good interviewer unlike Maddow who just asks every (friendly) guest if she didn't misrepresent them in her interminable and repetitive introductions.

I think what first brought Joy to everyone's attention, when she had her original weekend show, was her way of shutting out a stupid (usually Republican) guest and not allowing them to lie in her presence. She would unceremoniously cut them off and call them on their BS. She was not gracious like some other anchors and most of us appreciated her for that.

She does that far less frequently now, if at all, because most stupid guests (principally Republicans) have learned not to appear on her show.

Kasie and Brianna were flirting heavily with each other this morning while they were talking about their softball team. They're both sporty, rough and tumble girls.

[quote] A blonde Kasey Hunt on CNN's New Day this morning

CNN turned her into a painted whore!

Couldn't stand Kasie. She was one of the Mika/Andrea Mitchell little bitch protegees like Katy Tur, Kristen Welker and Hallie Jackson.

by Anonymousreply 331September 9, 2021 6:47 PM

Kasie wasn't NEARLY as annoying as Katyy Tur or Hallie Jackson.

I cannot watch those two. They make my ears bleed.

Kasie was very professional. And she didn't YELL at the audience, or talk at 1000 words per minute, the way that Hallile Jackson does.

I'm not R322, but thanks, R328! I never could understand why some posts were lined out -- now I've moved my settings from halfway between "delicate flower" and "asbestos eyeballs" to "asbestos eyeballs" and this OP is no longer lined out. Of course, there's also nothing offensive about this OP, even by "delicate flower" standards, but that's a different issue.

Hallie Jackson seems to think that talking louder and faster makes her seem smarter.

It doesn't.

by Anonymousreply 334September 9, 2021 6:52 PM

Hallie Jackson reminds me of Chris Matthews with her bulldozer mannerisms, I imagine him saying “ATTA GIRL HALLIE” as he watches her trample over someone from his nursing home.

KC/DC must know that everyone suspects that she's gay, right? If she does, it's awesome that she leans into being sporty and doesn't mention the husband 24/7 to constantly remind us of her GLORIOUS HETEROSEXUALITY.

I gotta love a gal who doesn't give a whiff if the world thinks she's gay.

Kasie's married to an NBC producer (no doubt how she got the job given her meagre talents) and had a kid a year ago.

R333 Bizarre. With my sensitivity set to neutral, OP's title post is lined out. As a "delicate flower" these additional equally innocuous and unrelated posts are lined out : R102, R133, R229, R245, R316. Seems random.

R338 As OP, likewise delicate flower lines-out those other posts, none of which I contributed. The title post however remains unaffected.

Who cares about Kasie - Joy's revived 'Shirley Dimples' coif is the topic Du Jour or at least it should be. The braided extension cord/basket of snakes look had run it's course and Joy reverted back to her more demur style this past week. Of course she could surprise us all and trot out a new look tonight!

R342 you're right. Joy needs to pick a reasonable hairstyle and stick with it. I note her panel is 100% black. Where are the Latinos? The Asians? The token white person??

by Anonymousreply 343September 9, 2021 11:08 PM

Joy is on fire with ridicule for any and all Republicans. I love how she puts up quote cards and then reads them aloud fast and bla-bla-bla. Just slurring over the stupid words.

Beautiful.❤️

Agreed, r344. Joy was quite hilarious there. Love her!

Smart Girl: Garrett is reasonably attractive but more importantly has a solid income and travels a lot. I wouldn't mind spending his money while he reports from Fillintheblank for a few days, only to come back home to fuck me senseless. Sigh.

Huge red flag.

People like Garrett, who get married then divorced then married again quickly, usually have some kind of personality disorder.

Plus, his new "wife" looks like a stripper.

This has really made his attractiveness level go down for me.

Oh, and I give the "marriage" six months. Tops.

So Garrett and the blonde on CNN Sarah somebody got divorced? Garrett loves his tarty blondes.

She's so short, she probably tongues his navel while he fucks.

Why are you focusing on the wedding pictures to the midget versus the shirtless pic. Besides the hideous tattoo he has on his forearm, it looks like he has something written on his left rib-cage as well. He is also a member of the tiny nips club.

Because we don't like his chest.

R359 Garrett's 6'4" just like his pal Beto. She must be really short. Must be like a Great Dane humping a chihuahua.

MSNBC is fiddling with the lighting or something. Makes Nicolle look like she's a ghost. The lighting's too dim. I noticed the other night I could barely see Joy Reid as she's so dark-skinned because of the poor lighting.

Now I know why Garrett got married so quickly.

Looking at the photos at R355, I'm guessing that he didn't want to be the only one in his circle of friends, without a partner.

I like the first photo in that series, with his dark haired friend sneaking his arm under Garrett's arm pit. I'd take a good sniff after the photo!
