To the extent there is such a duty, the US has not enforced it for decades and won't start now, unfortunately. MSNBC is corporate media, not journalism, and this little stunt serves to show the network groveling for ratings as Comcast spins it off. Sorry for the cynicism but this is the situation.

I cannot Trust These 2 EVER AGAIN!

If the media had spent their time touting President Biden's accomplishments over the past 4 years, instead of dissing him, President Biden could have beat Trump and if he chose not to run, Harris could have beat Trump, going off their record.

If they wanted us to take them seriously, they should have interviewed him not met him in private.

spiritpanther.bsky.social•103 days ago

Yeah, they kind of showed a bit of cowardice.

ledman54.bsky.social•103 days ago

Ratings tanked and ultimately if they continue “Joe will go” Hmm, maybe they can go over to Fox. You know there are openings there since Trump is bringing Fox folks to the White House

miaganga.bsky.social•103 days ago

They are dead to me

itsmeaimee.bsky.social•103 days ago

MSNBC may have no choice if ratings continue to dwindle

evilrbt.bsky.social•103 days ago

Journalists are supposed to speak truth to power. Now Joe and Mika will speak whatever Trump wants them to speak. Zero integrity.

I’ve not watch ANY MSNBC at all. Lawrence was my favorite but we can’t even give that network a second of our time. Even his viewership needs to reflect our disappointment

Where we spend our time, how we spend our money - that’s collective power.

Hold The Line!!

MSNBC Needs to drop this program.

jdavis1998.bsky.social•99 days ago

Bye-bye

kdchartrand.bsky.social•103 days ago

Agree with the criticism of Joe and Mika but the article cites Megyn Kelly as though she were some pillar of virtue on the subject. Does no one else remember her visit to Trump Tower to kiss the ring after the 2016 primary debate when she was under sustained harassment from Trump and the MAGA mob?

kdchartrand.bsky.social•103 days ago

Webster really should jettison the words shame and hypocrisy from the dictionary. They have no meaning anymore.

rick1963.bsky.social•103 days ago

Just think, Comcast could sell off these cable networks and Morning Joe could end up as a podcast. A definite step down.

onebluecat.bsky.social•103 days ago

Also forgot to add, they are selling it and MJs job is on the line. DUH...should have figured.

"I’ve also learned about MSNBC bosses’ new plan to shakeup both daytime and weekend programming and to name a new host of the Morning Joe lead-in (I’ll tell you who)."

I am sure they want to be hired by Trump so they can make a fuck ton of money.

redstateliberal.bsky.social•103 days ago

But they aren’t really that kind of journalists. Their show is an op-ed page, not a front page. I have not noticed a pro-Trump bias in recent days.

techwitch.bsky.social•103 days ago

They’re journalists?? Since when? They’re morning show personalities. That’s about it.

redstateliberal.bsky.social•103 days ago

Exactly.

anniebee18.bsky.social•103 days ago

I will never watch them again

hournews.bsky.social•103 days ago

Do we have evidence that they "kissed the ring"? It seems they are still quite critical of Trump.

thelonious08.bsky.social•103 days ago

What was gained by them flying to Florida and back?

The cost was clear, so some mysterious benefit must be somewhere, right?

khippy.bsky.social•103 days ago

I will no longer watch them. All about ratings. Screw them.

cewing.bsky.social•103 days ago

Move on…start attacking the Fox News team for disinformation (lies) they repeat constantly

reticent789.bsky.social•103 days ago

I think some public people are scared of the possible retribution, and I understand that to a certain extent. However, I have always enjoyed the show more when Joe isn’t there. He talks about himself too much.
