Her hyping of the amount of Trump's tax returns she had was years ago and nothing of the Steele dossier has been proven false. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though she’s only on once per week, she’s still driven so much paranoia and fear that she remains their highest-rated anchor, and there’s never been a reckoning over her irresponsible fearmongering reporting.

She only hosts for an hour Monday night and still gets paid more than everyone else. 9 hours ago, Espresso said: NBCUNI prez is leaving today for a cheating/harassment scandal, so you technically already got your wish. Although if you're referring to an on-air personality, Joy Reid should've left two years ago for lying about fake homophobic blog posts and the FBI investigating. I still can't believe what happened with all that. I was a regular watcher of her weekend show until that scandal came to light. I'll watch highlight clips of her now and then, or if she's included in MSNBC special coverage events, but I can't ever look at her the same anymore.

He's been on thin ice for a while at the network. First, not disclosing he advised Jussie Smollett behind the scenes while reporting on his hate crime scandal. Then ever since his move the CNN This Morning he's been fueding with Kaitlin Collins off-screen and saying problematic things on air. I'm honestly surprised he wasn't axed much sooner.

ClashAndBurn Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 Chris Licht sucks, but this is probably the best thing he’s done for the network period. Firing Brian Stelter comes at a close second, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The “whatever ethnicity you are” comment was probably the last straw, rather than the overall content of the interview. That said, Licht also doesn’t want his journalists at the network to be combative with conservatives like Vivek, because it makes them look biased towards liberals which is a perception he’s been trying (and failing so far) to shed with his rebranding efforts.

Rachel was tired of doing the show and wanted to end it, but instead MSNBC did a deal with her so she could do it just once a week (Mondays) and she's still making more than the others MSNBC didn't want to lose her, and they also have her signed on for all election coverage at the network.

Yeah CNN is a dumpster fire as of late. I swear I see new reporters/correspondents popping up every day now. They fired so many well-established anchors/correspondents just to bring in a bunch of young newbies. Plus, did you see the way they announced Laura Coates was going to anchor CNN Tonight at 11pm and then quietly reversed course and gave her slot to Alyson Camerota?

Lemon? Sizeable viewer base? asaldjkhfaljksh, listen. His ratings were DISASTROUS after Trump left office. And his favorability was plummeting by the day with how toxic he was to his female cohosts when he was given a PANEL slot on a morning show (kiss of death in cable news when you're moved off of a solo night time slot). Guests were turning down appearances on the morning show because they did not want to be on set with Don Lemon given his reputation. CNN literally HAD to let him go as he was dragging down their failing brand even further. There is nothing BAD about this decision. He was singlehandedly creating the most toxic work environment in cable news as a result of his rabid misogyny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Berry Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Daddy Cuomo was pretty nice toward Don considering they aren't or at least weren't on the best of terms once Chris left CNN. I hope they get over their issues and work together again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
