Watching MSNBC this morning

[angrychair]

And Katy Tur just came up on my screen on Jose Diaz-Balart's show.
That MSNBC is so shameless that they put her on air after Tur being outed as a Trump shill is both disappointing and insulting.

1. SMH.

It's like a badge of honor with them. I don't think Katy would pass muster with the primetime hosts.

[Warpy]

14. MSNBC has always put more conservative hosts on in the morning

probably because some ass in marketing says that's when old folks are watching and old folks are always conservatives.

The segment with Tur was likely scheduled some time ago, before she was outed as a stenographer

2. Jose Diaz balart is a RW Cuban "exile".

He campaigned for both of his GOP brothers.

The 3 brothers are Fidel Castro's cousins.

Their family feud is US policy on Cuba.

5. His brother

Is my Congress critter and he voted against the Biden election on Jan 6th. Shameless

6. Ding ding

We have a winner😀

18. I knew there was a reason DIaz Balart Balart has never resonsated with me - now I know why 🙁n/t

[aggiesal]

20. He's Cuban American from Miami. That's the (R) demographic in South Florida ...

I knew when I first heard him, he came from that background.

[JoseBalow]

21. He was a local Miami FOX station blowhard before he got "promoted" to network news

Him and Rick Sanchez, right-wing FOX blowhard repug shills that got bumped up to network jobs. They've both toned it down on the national stage, but some of us remember what douchebags they really are.

3. I don't watch Tur. Very superficial and ill prepared.

[lark]

4. She's not my fave either, way too much both siderism with this one. nt

[dchill]

19. With two extra orders of whatabout.

[malaise]

7. I added a D at the end of her name yearsago

😀

[Xavier Breath]

8. And I keep adding it at the beginning

because viewers should Dtur around her on-screen appearances

[malaise]

11. Nicely played

Rec😀😂😀

[BumRushDaShow]

15. DUzy worthy!

[lastlib]

17. (lower case, I hope.....)

(not as in "- D"..... )

[RockRaven]

9. I don't know why people expect MSNBC execs to behave better than they have

in the past. The best predictor of future behavior is past behavior.

[malaise]

12. NBC made

Smelvis

[Srkdqltr]

10. So we dont like

Tur
Mitchell
Diaz-Balart
Melber
Who else?

[BumRushDaShow]

16. Some might add

Chris Jansing.

But you left off the biggies who personally brought MSNBC 45 on a silver platter - Mourning Schmo and his sidekick, the daughter of Zbigniew Brzezinski (plus many are not enamored by Willie Geist either).

[JoseBalow]

24. If it weren't "The Rev," who would remind us about his National Action Network?

Has he ever gone on air without plugging it?

[peggysue2]

13. The payoff must be huge for Tur

She was on the ground with Trump from the start when no one thought Mr. Mob Boss had a chance in hell at the Oval Office. She heard the insults, the outrageous shrieking from the MAGA crowd, the ongoing threats to the free press and reporters covering the events.

And yet . . .

She decided to lean into the chaos.

Shameful. I will never listen to a thing she has to say. Ever!

[oasis]

22. Balart is unwatchable. Katy "turns"

my stomach.

[FHRRK]

23. The entire morning lineup is Republicans

Then they switch to "recovering" Republicans like Nicole and Stephanie. Don't have an issue with either one of them, BUT they took jobs from long term liberals.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

25. Nancy Pelosi called it, and Michael Cohen verified it yesterday.

Link to tweet

[Irish_Dem]

26. Pelosi knew that Tur was a Trump operative.

Just like Pelosi knows that all MAGA roads lead back to Putin.

[Scrivener7]

27. Email them and let them know when you see her, you will be turning the station off.

28. MSNBC must really appreciate DU's loyal viewership...

Complaints day after day.
