@6G@mastodon.social So you are glued to Andrea Mitchell and Rona Romney McDaniel? @wbpeckham @DemocracyMattersALot @TonyStark
@DemocracyMattersALot Buahahahahaha!!!!!! @6G@mastodon.social @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@mastodon.social @wbpeckham

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.

@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.
@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.
