Fuck these networks.
Amplify their voices right here. @jimacosta.bsky.social, @joyannreid.bsky.social , @itsalexwags.bsky.social are but just a few who deserve to be heard far and wide. They are outstanding voices of the Collective.
Agreed. Although I'm not thoroughly convinced they're fully on board with both sides, honestly. It's still a bottom line business so they will lean into where their audience leans.
@msnbc.com what the fuck are you doing? Getting rid of @joyannreid.bsky.social is ridiculous! That was the only show I watched. Get rid of idiots joe and Mika. Oh wait I forgot, they're white so their jobs are safe.
And yet anyone still listening to msnbc is continually subjected to trump loving tur and the boring monotone of mitchell. Both are condescending, flippant and hard to watch.
So, you're gonna get rid of 2 superstars, who actually report the news, and don't "bend the knee"?
Good job, msnbc!
If @msnbc.com wants to save money they should fire Mika & Joe who are both terrible, replace them with @velshi.bsky.social & @stephruhle.bsky.social who not only inform, but are darn entertaining too. That’s my 2¢ 😎🖖🏼🇺🇸
Joe: "When I was a Conservative in Congress there was progress and comety. Democrats and Republicans joined hand-in-hand to sing campfire songs an make S'mores around a campfire..."
This is the end of my MSNBC viewing. I will miss Lawrence, Rachel, Chris & Nicole. But the idiocy of mgmt claiming to reduce overhead is another MSNBC mis-step. If they think viewers will slowly return I won’t, they betrayed my trust, AGAIN.
Buying into that idea to go more to center or right? I’m sure there is a lot of people sitting around saying Fox News is too conservative. Isn’t there a channel a little less conservative but still right leaning?
no surprise, msnbc is the new fox. FUCK EM. I turned them off when claire claimed Biden should step down, then mika & joe kissed the orange ass. msnbc can get FUCKED. i will NEVER watch that fucking channel again.
Replacing 1 of 2 people on the entire network willing to speak up about Gaza (the other is Chris Hayes, a white man) with a former RNC chair. Also replacing Alex Wagner with an even more bland white version of her (Jen Psaki).
Folks, pls stop watching this network. Watch Majority Report instead.
Don't care. He's a centrist "independent" Republican, and no network that's supposed to be a voice of the opposition should have him on as anything but an occasional contributor. I don't care when these "never trump" Repubs are contrite, they're the ones who got us here in the first place.
Ali @velshi.bsky.social and Ayman Mohyeldin are the two strongest advocates for justice in Gaza/Palestine on MSNBC - and IMO two of the few anchors worth watching.
It’s clear NBC does not want to ruffle Trump’s feathers and is starting to clean house. Let’s hope they’re just throwing him a bone and don’t do much more damage to the lineup or try to reign in the content. But we know their racists and it sucks.
I haven’t watched TV in 6yrs. But the things I read about on social media make me wonder if they are trying to get Fox Viewers who are turned off by how crazy that network has become. (Do such people exist?)
I wonder if network news is dying anyway, just like printed newspapers due to the internet.
Well, that's the shits! What in the world is wrong with this station? They are two of the best! So many have left, and I'm surprised that Rachel Maddow is staying with them. This is really a bad move on MSNBC's part. It kind of stinks...
Wow! They were great on MSNBC. We will see who they replace them with, but Morning Joe is still there and no one watches them, so I'm not holding my breath. MSNBC seems to be circling the drain just behind CNN.
That link for alex wagner is suspended. Are we sure that's the correct one? Only one I could find for her was her wagnertonight account. Might want to check.
Ok, so Rachel till she's done. That strings out Ari and Chris and Lawrence. This sucks but no more MSNBC, we so much need them and they continually disappoint!
@joyannreid.bsky.social do like. Chris Matthew’s and just leave (unless that means you’ll lose money on the table). But please don’t sign a non-disparagement agreement.
The new CEO and MSNBC news network are gonna get a backlash from both the public and other news anchors for sure this week or by the end of February. For sure.
I really enjoyed both Joy and Alex’s shows. It’s unfortunate that their voices are no longer on MSNBC, but I’ll enjoy their reporting through other “channels.” 💖
These people they are axing are great reporters, reporting about what is going on in the US. I stopped reading MSNBC when they started to kiss Donald's hand. They conceded to a Fascist Russian. I will never go back to mainstream media. Traitors.
@msnbc.com your ratings aren’t down because of Joy, they’re down because people turned their televisions off all together due to your pandering to the right.
Get rid of Joe.
I used to turn every tv in our hotel properties to MSNBC, every room. Not since the debate.
I haven’t watched tv news in years, but a couple months ago someone left Joy’s show on in the room. Joy was trying to steer a progressive guest away from rightful criticism of Democrats in exactly the same manner Fox hosts try to steer and cut away from deserved criticism of Republicans.
Is anyone still watching any of these 24hr/day soap opera, dystopian nightmare news rags? I refuse.
It’s more difficult to cull the news from the sources who have earned my trust all these years at the place I shall not mention. Despite that, making sure I’m not being lied to is worth it.
Otherwise, how the F does the network fire progressive voices, Joy Reid and Alex Wagner, while still employing 'never-Trumper' critics turned post-election butt-kissers, Joe Scarborough and Mika?
@msnbc.com I see your ball sack fell off again. First Mehdhi, now Joy. Is there any other person of color that offends the orange tumor you need to get rid of?
Gee. I wonder what could possibly be happening. Two WOC demoted or eliminated. If you see a trend you are seeing the truth. Notice women. Notice POC. Take a look at what’s happening at the highest level of govt
This is awful news. I absolutely loved Joy’s analysis and Alex’s wager too. This is such a disservice. She and Alex should have the morning show not Mika and Joe. Joy is the only black woman with a prime time show. Representation matters. So very disappointed in msnbc.
Clearly you don’t watch it. Non of the anchors are pro Trump. Even, dare I say it, Joe and Micah after their trip to MAL. Unlike CNN who continue to have pro trumpers on, MSNBC do not
MSNBC has never listened to viewers. I remember being part of several email campaigns against P Griffin choices and not even a response. I know a lot of people complained about Joe Scab and corporate gave'em a bigger show! I think enough of us complained about A Mitchell with no results, too.
I guess with Rachel on all week, Alex was the odd woman out.
My personal thought is Alex is better at the live interviewing on the street type of engagement than doing what Rachel does.
I don't see why they had to fire Joy. Did she speak up too much?
Joy was great. Alex was awful. She did 80% of the talking when she had a guest on. I haven’t watched her since Bidens poor debate performance when Alex couldn’t hide her panic.
Won’t watch the replacements. Symone is excruciating to watch. She consistently interrupts and cuts everyone off. Talking over them and speaking so fast it’s hard to understand what she says. No thanks
They're the last people who should be cut. And even if she doesn't have the highest ratings, it's criminal for @msnbc.com to cut their best-known African-American host.
Personally, I don't see this as the catastrophe that others do. IMO, Joy was good & Alex was ok, but Symone Sanders-Townsend, Alicia Menendez, Michael Steel, Jenn Psaki, and Eugene Daniels are also good, and IMO NYU law professor Melissa Murray is GREAT. Neither Reid nor Wagner had that many viewers
*I* saw MSNBC axing @mehdirhasan.bsky.social as both a HUGE loss and as an anti-muslim attack, but I don't view the loss of Joy's & Alex' shows as either great losses or as biased attacks.
The new head is a white woman. Black women are always punished for speaking the truth. The Weekend and the Jen Psaki show were the creation of this new CEO. Remember Melissa Harris-Perry and Tiffany Cross?
And when they try to about face in the future, they should not be supported. May they collapse; they will deserve it! The cow towing to the right is ridiculous!
Alex Wagoner too?! These are two of the most strong people in the evenings. They dig deep for truth. So lemme guess ~ both brilliant. And women. Of color. Yeah, keep Joe and Mika. And Alex Witt. All useless, so white and get rid of the people who have substance. And who haven't bend the knee
If it continues...
Boycott MSNBC. I only recently started tuning in to Morning Joe again after the disgusting 'kiss the ring' thing happened. I'll cut them off completely if they get rid of Deadline, Rachel and Lawrence...just wait till the ratings tank.
They should have axed that couple, whatever their names are. The dude who likes to talk about sports and the wife who looks like she’s going to murder him for even thinking about sports. If she smiled, her face would crack.
They are infinitely less likable than Joy and Alex.

Good job, msnbc!
We follow Joy and Alex wherever they go.
@msnbc.com can go carrot fuck themselves stupid.
Those two should have been suspended, or fired for that stunt
But for @msnbc.com management, it was just fine
I won't consider watching until the "Two Morning Hacks" are gone
Folks, pls stop watching this network. Watch Majority Report instead.
Point being, there are other, far better progressive news & commentary sources than MSNBC.
Mr. Steele has acknowledged the toxicity of his former party better than most on television.
That is what Germany just did ... again.
I guess the orange muppet whining had @msnbc.com bend the knee to purge women of color

No more msnbc
They are part of the problem.
Bye, "Morning Joe". Who's with me?
Get rid of Joe.

Cowards.
RNC Chair 2009-2011 Michael Steele.
Cause Obama was Black too.
Follow the money
