NBC News on Tuesday ousted former Republican National Committee chair Ronna McDaniel, just days after her hiring as a paid political analyst sparked intense backlash from the network’s top television anchors over McDaniel’s role in subverting the 2020 election and attacks on the press.

“There is no doubt that the last several days have been difficult for the News Group,” NBCUniversal News Group President Cesar Conde said in a memo to staff. “After listening to the legitimate concerns of many of you, I have decided that Ronna McDaniel will not be an NBC News contributor.”

“I want to personally apologize to our team members who felt we let them down,” Conde continued. “While this was a collective recommendation by some members of our leadership team, I approved it and take full responsibility for it.”

    Yea, I unsubscribed from all their shit. WTF are they doing anyway? I turn on msnbc and its michael steele, anthony scaramucci, michael cohen. It looks like fox news circa 10 years ago. Is the last “liberal” cable news network just a retirement plan for republican trash and trump appointees? Meanwhile all other media outlets are being bought up by billionaires and intentionally pushed hard right. Houston, we have a big fucking problem. Anyhow, sayonara to msnbc for me. Final nail in the coffin hiring a known liar, insurrectionist, and propagandist. You are NOT a serious news outlet.
