Story by Oliver Darcy, CNN

MSNBC will not air “Morning Joe,” its celebrated politics roundtable program, on Monday, opting to instead air continued breaking news coverage of the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump.

The progressive news network confirmed the decision to preempt its influential and top-rated morning show after a CNN inquiry Sunday evening. The network said the show will resume airing Tuesday.

A person familiar with the matter told CNN that the decision was made to avoid a scenario in which one of the show’s stable of two dozen-plus guests might make an inappropriate comment on live television that could be used to assail the program and network as a whole.

It’s not the first time MSNBC has made such programming decisions in charged political moments.

Last year after Hamas executed its deadly October 8 attack on Israel, MSNBC quietly pulled three of its Muslim broadcasters from air.

If you have to repeatedly do this, shouldn't that be an indication that you have people on air, that should not be on air?

Their rhetoric around Trump for the past 6 years has been absolutely batshit. They compare him and his supporters to Nazis, brand him as a "threat to democracy", a dangerous felon, etc.

They are not responsible for the assassination attempt on Trump, but they have put out more than their fair share of extreme, radical commentary that less intelligent people take as news. They've helped create this environment that radicalized young, impressionable people like Thomas Crooks.

Yeah.

And this should be a sign to people who actually like to watch Morning Joe (and other MSNBC programs). You are being deprived of honest news. They are intentionally making you angry because they know it keeps you tuned in. You may be part of the problem.

Didn't think anyone watched that show except angry housewives in radical, homogenous northern suburbs.

The only truth they tell is that the majority of their viewers would love to see their fellOw Americans killed over politics.

Pulling Morning Joe off the air is an admission that it’s a toxic cesspool.

When it comes to Trump and his supporters…..MSNBC immediately starts bleeding out of their eyes. They have been even worse than CNN or WaPo when it comes to spewing lies and fueling left wing hate fire.

There is a lot of crazies on both sides. But MSNBC is a huge part of it from the left.

Now do Fox News.

Then CNN's morning show.



I like this trend.

The MSM is now more exposed than ever. If you still believe them you are the problem.

It's been a toxic cesspool for years. They just now realized it.

Sort of how they just now realized that Biden hasn't had the mental awareness to lead anything for 4 years.

It's not easy for people to accept that they've been lied to. This will be a slow and painful process for some.

Head on over to instagram and Facebook, there are plenty of TDS'ers bemoaning the bad aim and insisting that Trump is a rapist and a felon and he should get what he deserves.

Lot of bad people out there.
