I hope and pray the choice was his...he is one of the few journalists that still haven't sold their integrity

They got rid of @alsharpton.bsky.social daily show. Got rid of Tiffany Cross. They let @tamronhall.bsky.social go. Where's Sheinelle Jones at? There are others too. @nbcnews.com @msnbc.com better not come for @michaelsteele.bsky.social or @symonedsanders.bsky.social I will give them hell to pay.

Even Lester is “too black” for them. Well at least people are being upfront about their racism and we don’t have to “wonder”, you know?… Knowledge is power.

maybe we should wait for the replacement

Aht, aht, change your mindset.

Going forward...there are podcasts, website, options

and tanking their ratings by not tuning in will deter advertisers.

Know your power.

NBC is bowing to the head of the KKK. It is really happening to all of us that are not white Christian nationalists

Ok well I am just now getting caught up. They also fired Ayman and Katie Phang. I expect more to be fired.

And Holy has been on the Tirico program from jump essentially.. As inoffensive and bland as it's humanly possible to be..

Yep. He was the kind of guy people liked to bring up when they said racism is over. No hate to the guy, but his brand/style is expired in this new era.
