WSJ: MSNBC has no plans to have former Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel on the cable network, its president told employees as backlash to her hiring grows within the wider NBC News organization.
Adding to the internal backlash, Chuck Todd, NBC News’s chief political analyst, blasted the network on-air after McDaniel’s “Meet the Press” interview with Kristen Welker on Sunday over the hiring.
“I think our bosses owe you an apology for putting you in this situation,” he said to Welker. “There’s a reason why there’s a lot of journalists at NBC News uncomfortable with this, because many of our professional dealings with the RNC over the last six years have been met with gaslighting.”
The backlash follows NBC News’s internal announcement Friday that it had hired McDaniel as a contributor. In that internal memo, the political chief, Carrie Budoff Brown, said McDaniel would contribute “across all NBC News platforms,” causing turmoil among several of the network’s on-air hosts and staffers, people familiar with the matter said. MSNBC is part of the NBC News division. more

Nobody trust a traitor.
Yeah…but is she getting a paycheck? For whut? Inside info on certain repubs while at RNC? Organizing and promoting RINOs?
but its okay to hire George Stephanopoulos or Jen Psaki who were ACTUALLY IN DEMOCRAT ADMINISTRATIONS to ‘contribute’
Can you say hypocritical? I knew you could
Harry, now that’s what I call real gas lighting. Did he singe his butt hairs doing that?
geoff – I just hope he wuz strapped down!
She’s garbage any way you look at it. Any humiliation coming her way is good. Better would be if the RC sues her to get back the millions of RNC money she spent on HERSELF.
HA ha!
She’d be a PERFECT fit.
Ronna is a corrupt, incompetent useful idiot. The joke is.on NBC.
