FOX: Some MSNBC stars berated their own network Saturday for firing longtime liberal contributor Joan Walsh just days before Christmas.
Anchor Joy Reid was the most strident, with primetime host Chris Hayes calling Walsh “indispensable” in a tweet.
This is either Hayes or Maddow. *shrugs*
“It’s incredibly short sighted to sideline voices like Joan’s, especially now,” Reid wrote on Twitter. “Especially given the momentousness of next year’s anniversaries: the women’s march, the King and RFK assassinations … we need to be at full strength as media entities, and Joan belongs in the mix.”
In response to one tweet, Reid said she had already let her bosses know how she feels.
The reason for Walsh’s ouster was unexplained and a source of great puzzlement as she was very popular with MSNBC viewers and anchors.
Even more baffling was MSNBC’s statement Saturday confirming her departure.
“Every year we review our paid contributors list across the ideological spectrum. Unfortunately we couldn’t renew Joan, but she and her distinct perspective will still be invited on our shows,” an MSNBC spokesperson told TheWrap via email. “Joan Walsh has been a key voice on MSNBC for years and she’s absolutely still welcome.” more here
She refused to give her boss his annual Holiday season blow job.
From what I read, whether correct or not, is that for a while they paid her when she appeared, but for the past few years have paid her a regular salary. Now they are going back to pay per appearance.
Probably like that ‘7 words the CDC won’t let you use’ story that is not in fact 7 words that the CDC will not let you use, typical leftist headline that doesn’t stand up to facts.
The anniversary of a democrat offing a black Republican and a muzlim offing an anti communist. These democrats are really in the intellectual wilderness. These are your people! Why are these house negro’s still on the side of the massa? These people like joy what’shername are the overseer’s of old.
phuck MSNBC and parent company Comcast …. you asswipes give 100k $1000 bonuses because of Trump’s tax cuts & don’t bother to give back to your hostage rate payers that live in your government-mandated monopoly?
again, phuck you ……… & all your libtard idiot talking-heads … explode already!
Crickets ….
Aw shit, my Give-A-Damn meter is busted again.
Oh wait… I don’t give a damn.
I think BFH may actually give a pass this time when I write, “I never heard of Joan Walsh”?
It’s MSNBABCXYZ
Not my circus. Not my monkeys.
I thought it was Ron Reagan.
I’ve never heard of Joan Walsh, but if she’s a liberal good riddance. They can get rid of Maddcow too.
Spose those liberal commie fag traitor ass holes are being forced to tighten their belts because of economic considerations?
Maybe Maddow has one of those automatic locks on her door like Lauer.
Is Joan Walsh Joe’s sister?
