MSNBC—Part 68

[quote]It seems that peeps are ok with a successor thread starting closer to 550, you have been heard.

That's because threads sometimes get wonky before they get close to 600. Thanks for starting the next one. Not sure why you're grayed out.

[quote]Overnight coverage by SkyNews is shit. More than one host/reporter commending Trump for statesmanship, leadership, and wisdom. Are these clueless fascists still working for Murdoch? Does hapless MSNBC know, or care? It’s almost to the point of FauxNews. Had to turn it off.

I caught that too, it was a total rim job that went on and on. I thought I was listening to Fox News on steroids. They even brought up the peace prize. It was very disturbing hearing that from people who didnt have the typical American MAGA inflections. They all have mud on their face now, both sides back to shooting at each other calming each other broke the agreement.

OP here. I am one of the unappointed continuation monitors who try to guarantee threads continue without a break and without bifurcation, competing threads. I just ended a three-day sit out after I listed this continuation link near r 550 of 67.

Is this thread still grayed out? If it isn't, it means the Mediapolis programming grays out an OP on sit-out.

Interesting to know.

There are continuation monitors on the Treason Thread.

I am also The View continuation monitor.

I have a style for continuations: Name, M Dash, Part. I keep things simple for people to search.

So, if I get grayed out again, yoi know I am on the naughty stool AGAIN.

I’ve been on the naughty stool twice this week. Our self-appointed censors are very busy.

FF is not meant to be a thumbs down or “no.”

Now, at the risk of returning to the stool, I will say “Rachel has been phoning it in lately.”

[ducks]

Why is OP greyed out already?

What is a sit-out?

Why?

Don Lemon looked 10 years younger. Good surgery and veneers.

It's a new thread. And Symone is still an unwatchable buffoon.

Anyone else notice that MSNBC allowed "Fuck" uncensored on shows today.

R10 - yeah, but for some reason the NBC Evening News bleeped it out.

CNN did too.

When the President does it, that means that it is not illegal.

CNN did not edit out or bleep the word "fuck."

Good for those shows with the journalistic integrity to broadcast this president uncensored, showing the world (and history) what a gross human failure he is.

Joy Reid doing CNN panels now…

R15, not a bad idea to offset the absolute foolishness of Scott Jennings and the other CNN contributing MAGA Trump ass lickers.

Not surprising network news bleeped the f-bomb out, but the cable networks shouldn't have to. Besides, even with the bleeps, it was VERY obvious what he said.

That fucking BITCH Katy Tur bringing up that old tired trope (too many on DL have swallowed hook, line, and sinker) that Kamala Harris ran on "Trump is bad; vote for me," and that she gave the voters *nothing* to vote FOR except Trump Bad. That Kamala didn't have specifics on HOW she would make our lives better--as if the woman didn't fucking TELL US EVERY FUCKING SPEECH what her plans and policies were and would be. I am so tired of lazy-ass newsreaders and "journalists" who keep spouting the same ole lies because they never get challenged to their faces.

I could go on for days, but I have got to calm my ass down.

Everyone knows Katy Turd voted for Trump.

Please give Symone a two-week timeout. Does she never shut her hippopotamus pie-hole?!

Get over your fat shaming R20. Symone brings some good insights to the table and I like they she is allowed to express more outrage than the stock news people from central casting it seems you want.

I’m with you, R18. It’s such bullshit that could be so easily disproven by simply playing the video from any of her campaign speeches — which, of course, they would never do because it would undercut their garbage lies about what she said.

Lawrence is again out with the napalm. It seems Trump is selling snake oil to NATO. He must have been more pissed off by Putin than suspected.

Saying that Article 5 is good now that Europe has boosted military budgets. Can't wait to see what happens with Iran in the next 6 months.

I guess Trump Tower Moscow has been shelved.

Katy Tur is such an oddity. Her fist job with MSNBC was the short straw, she had to fallow Trump around all over the country before anyone thought he would win. At one point he called her out and she had to be rushed out so the crowed would not turn on her. Her father is some Trans woman who used to be a helicopter pilot for LA news and traffic before he Transed. And I think they are not on speaking terms.

Like a lot of woman, she loves/hates Trump. Once they get married they change their opinions to what their MAGA husbands want.

Agree 100%, R25. It's been jarring to watch the Tur transformation, because I actually used to love her goofy ass. But that second baby (apologies to Baby; it's not personal) seems to have sent her 'round the bend; and the growing douchiness of Tony Dokoupil is rubbing off on her.

I want the J6 Katy back--she and Yasmin V were absolutely STELLAR, imo.

Katy Tur definitely lost her mind after the second baby. That short haircut was a cry for help. It looked like she took a pair of shears and chopped it herself during a moment of insanity.

She also has serious issues with her father becoming a tranny, which probably caused her to abandon liberal ideas somewhat.

I got a poll from MSNBC and I suggested that they shit can Joe, give his 4 hours to happy talk business maven Stephanie and bring back Joy for an 11th hour. How say you, bitches?

WTF is going on?!? Nicole on national TV without any makeup.

Oh please, r29, she has make-up on. It just isn't glam make-up.

I think Stephanie is ill equipped to talk about anything other than finance. He r little promo where she says "the game isn't over yet" makes me want to hurl--hedge fund bitch, my Medicare is not a game. I used to love Joy but got sick of rants from the $4M anchor. Joe doesn't bother me because he's never there.

Ever since Joe went down to MAL to suck Trump's cock, Morning Joe has suffered from blandness. Their sports dodge has gone nowhere. Joy left because she understood the anti Trump argument. Stephanie needs a business oriented The View she could moderate.

Stephanie should be on , mid to late morning, with a View type show on business, as r32 suggested.

They can then cut down on the number of hours cunt face Katy Tur is on during the day.

For the 11th Hour-put on a serious anchor Monday-Thursday, and turn the Friday show into a panel discussing the week’s news, sort of like Real Time.

R29 Not a regular viewer? She routinely favors a more natural look when appearing from her home studio, which is seemingly more frequent lately.

I want a home studio.

Zorhan's wifey.

R36, at least she's not grabbing her pussy like Verst Lady

It's her eat-your-heart-out-Cuomo pose.

Zorhan's wife is a young artist, so at least he's not doing what a lot of other politicians do which is pick a wife that will make a good prop for future campaigns.

R39

A wife who is a prop for future campaigns & then they cheat.

Example: Governor Gavin Newsom

Violet marriage.

R40 Are you implying that Kimberly Guilfoyle, our next Ambassador to Greece, was a prop?

Oooh, R28, I like the way you think.

Though I doubt Joy would be down for it, given how her exit was handled. I'm sure she's loving the freedom she has on her new YT show.

Four hours is way too much to spend with MJ, and I've felt that way since the 4th hour was added a couple years ago.

r40, is this why you hate hausfrau Chasten, so much?

I think that Trump and Noem and Hegseth have effectively destroyed infidelity as a moral high ground. Have they turned it into a Republican Family Value? Along with Domestic Violence.

Supreme Court Decision Day.

Will Leo and Crow get the court they purchased?

They got it in SPADES,

They gave more power to Trump.

They continued the assault on the post-Civil War Amendments and today, just like they cut the balls off of the Constitutional definitions of INSURRECTION, they now cut off the balls of birthright citizenship.

Wake up America.

Waiting for the definitive voice of Lawrence Tribe on The Last Word, tonight

Is everyone on sit-out?

The SCOTUS majority cohort is the most obscenely servile court in history, they might as well just suck the shit directly from Trump's ass. They are complicit in the ongoing destruction of a great nation, and should if possible be made to feel the people's utter contempt for their actions.

Based on the new decision leading to revoking birth right citizenship, can we deport Barron Trump since his mother broke the law claiming before obtaining citizenship and then broke the law again lying on her Einstein citizenship?

I know it may sound silly but I hate when Stephanie’s Friday night round table is her in the studio and everybody else on zoom. It’s like why bother.

This Antonia chick is a fucking annoying socialist.

Antonia who?

Antonia is getting off on Mamdani.

Two weeks in a row without Joe and Mika?

This week without Geist and Lemire, too?

I never would have been able to take a week of vacation before a Holiday Week.

Praise Jesus, Joe!

W T F !

Just when you think she's gone, here comes the reappearance of the insufferable Donnie Deutsch. Where is the goddamn remote?!

R56 Donnie is livable in that his air time isn't all that much. He is laughable.

Alicia in for Nicole this 4th of July week.

I love Nic, but Alicia Menendez is the only sub who can walk in her heels.

Look for the helpers

Why is Alicia misinforming her audience that the Republicans can only afford to lose one more Senator?

Yay, Cory Booker correcting Alicia.

Having a Latina talk with Jacob over the Latino ICE raids is superb.

Alicia's two hours just flew by.

Hope she is in for the full week.

I wonder if she's visited her corrupt scum sucking father yet.

I think she will send a birthday card.

Jesus, Ari is soooo tan now he's as dark as some of his guests of color. He's taking that rap thing way too far.

Symone babbles on. WHY is this woman on television? A fucking moron.

No Rachel!

Mushroom Coffee

In the spring we were told by the so-called experts on MSNBC that, due to the issues they were seeing then at the ports, we'd be seeing empty shelves at the groceries by July. What happened?! Our only hope was an economic collapse.

Trump put the tariffs on hold for 90 days while he negotiated a deal a day, remember?

Trump TACO'd the tariffs, but we will see what he does for those Christmas toy shelves.

R69 It's the scarcity of Halloween decorations at Target in August that will ultimately trigger the collapse.

Poor Lisa needs help. Alicia looks fabulous. Those discrete nips and tucks do the job.

Senator Blumenthal is one hour away from meeting his maker. God he looks like a corpse. Poor Alicia has to stare at that face in person.

YouTube keeps feeding me, and I keep biting, projections that this July will be an exceptionally tumultuous and eventful month, from seismic, volcanic, meteorological, social, political, and historical perspectives. Largely owing to solar activity and mass ejections. I'm apprehensive, and also a bit excited.

Alicia looks fierce. She has evening makeup on in the afternoon and looks beautiful.

I like Alicia's super smooth bob cut. Looks great on her and I almost never comment on women's hair styles.

She is most beautiful on those rare occasions she shows her left profile.

She has Hepburn bone structure.

R78, R77, & R78 = Alicia

I jest. She is gorgeous and a solid anchor.

Re: Inappropriate Touching (as in keeping your hands to yourself and not on the guest in the adjacent seat).

Vaughn Hillyard, Laura Barrón-López, David Noriega and Marc Santia Join MSNBC as Correspondents:

Why are the white males always dorky looking? Cant we for once have one that is attractive?

Bring back Thomas Roberts.

I wonder what MSNBC is going to do for foreign coverage after it's spun off from NBC -- no more live reports from Richard Engel, Kier Simmons, Matt Bradley, or Raf Sanchez.

Lemire came from the AP.

R83 Somewhat lacking in specifics...

Following its split from NBC News, MSNBC is actively building its own independent newsgathering operation, including hiring domestic and international correspondents. This involves establishing a Washington bureau and expanding its presence in the field. MSNBC is also hiring for various roles such as a head of talent, a head of content strategy, and a Washington bureau chief.

Details:

Building a distinct news operation: MSNBC is no longer relying on NBC News for its newsgathering and is actively creating its own independent news division.

Hiring correspondents: The network is recruiting a new wave of correspondents, including some who will be familiar to NBC News viewers, to cover various beats, including the White House and investigative roles.

Establishing a Washington bureau: MSNBC is establishing a Washington bureau as part of its efforts to build a robust newsgathering operation.

Expanding internationally: MSNBC is also expanding its international coverage, signaling a commitment to building a global news presence.

New leadership and talent: MSNBC is hiring key personnel like a head of newsgathering, Scott Matthews, to lead the expanded news operation.

Focus on context and analysis: MSNBC aims to distinguish itself by providing context and analysis alongside breaking news.

Transitioning from NBC News resources: While some talent is moving to MSNBC from NBC News, the network is also actively recruiting new talent to build its own team.

Surprised that Hillyard was not already an MSNBC correspondent; he’s long been a regular on Nicolle’s show.

I'm more curious about why NBC did not hold on to Hillyard themselves.
