I’m not sure where I’ll be watching election coverage right now but it sure as fuck won’t be anywhere foolish enough to have Ronna McDaniel on as a commenter or analyst or whatever they’re going to call it.
Seriously, what the fuck? Why do the major news organizations hate truthful information and honest reporting so much?
What a Coup! NBC News Just Hired Ronna McDaniel. – Mother Jones

RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel, in video testimony, said Trump and John Eastman called her to ask her to arrange for fake electors to meet and rehearse the process of casting fake votes.
But, sure, let’s have her neat color commentary in the run up to the 2024 election

@DemocracyMattersALot MSNBC is dead to me. @TonyStark

RE
#MSNBC is dead to me
are you mad ⁉️
shows like The Weekend IMO are great, granted, the info can drive us ⭕mad, smile
8am-10am (ET) Sat and Sun great.
There isnt a dull moment on the show.
If cant find even 1min (not counting the ads, of course) of The Weekend bad
@6G So you are glued to Andrea Mitchell and Rona Romney McDaniel? @wbpeckham @DemocracyMattersALot @TonyStark
@DemocracyMattersALot Buahahahahaha!!!!!! @6G @wbpeckham @TonyStark
@AlliFlowers @DemocracyMattersALot @6G @wbpeckham I occasionally watch Lawrence O’Donnell is the guest is good or if I’m free. Sometimes I watch Velshi but typically by the time the weekend comes, I’m already up on what he covers. I think his show is okay for people who don’t have time during the week to get at least some deeper coverage.
The rest of MSNBC is pretty much garbage if you ask me. I don’t like Melber or Hayes (the programs, although I don’t care for Hayes much as a person, either).
@TonyStark I used to really like Melber, but he uses so many rap references I feel like I’ve been left out of an inside joke. Love Lawrence, but he’s past my bedtime. I used to love Velshi and Ruhle in the afternoon. And I’m with you on the weekends, Tony. Nothing new. @DemocracyMattersALot @6G @wbpeckham
@TonyStark @AlliFlowers
It doesn't work for me either, but if it helps increase the overall audience that's cool with me.
It's far from perfect, but PBS seems to be the closest we may get to a national news outlet for a while. Hopefully, someone like the McDonald's heiress (she gave billions to NPR although much seems to have been wasted) will step forward soon and do something to help us repair our broken media landscape that's driving us apart.
@TonyStark @AlliFlowers I’m sure he has a particular audience and he is definitely smart but it is overdone.
@AlliFlowers @TonyStark @DemocracyMattersALot @6G @wbpeckham I don’t watch on weekends either, I need a break. But one of the things I truly value MSNBC for; the incredible guests. I’m not a lawyer and I cannot count the # of times over the last 4-6 mos. that I’ve read headlines and waited to watch Joy, Chris and Rachel (on Mondays) get the best people in the country to explain it all to me. They’re my go-tos.

thx for #dailybeast ✔️
NBC #meetthepress has an EXPLOSIVE interv with #ronnamcdaniel
She still sides with #Trump, lies on high crime, the high cost of food, but #KristenWelker pushed back that crime in major cites are all down
"The RNC was not there on #Jan6 we were not coordinating, not planning the event" (TELL ME MORE ‼️😴)

@msmp @AlliFlowers @TonyStark @DemocracyMattersALot @6G I own a DVR specifically for Chris Hayes, Rachel Maddow, and Lawrence O'Donnell. If you're willing to watch their shows a couple of days late I think Paramount Plus which only requires internet access and an account there (which is available for free if you're Xfinity customer) those MSNBC shows are available on demand.

We can TIME SHIFT most #msnbc shows so we can skip forward, sleep, listen in the car, in class, when doing eye surgery...
Listening using a #podcastapp is nice, what did they say about radio? It forces us to see better? Something like that

@AlliFlowers Same. He has some good guests but it's really cringey to me when he's on a dead serious subject for 10 minutes and then ends it with something like "as T-Pain said, I don't wanna be a rude dude man." It ruins great points and also great songs.
