Report: MSNBC Yanks Morning Joe to Avoid Possible ‘Inappropriate’ Comments About Assassination Attempt on Trump
You KNOW someone would have said something on the notorious anti-Trump show.
MSNBC yanked Morning Joe on Monday morning, supposedly to avoid any possible idiotic statements from panelists on the notorious anti-Trump show after the former president’s assassination attempt.
You know, it’s probably smart on their part:
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. Given the breaking news nature of the story, the person said, it made more sense to continue airing rolling breaking news coverage in the fraught political moment.
“Given the gravity and complexity of this unfolding story, NBC News, NBC News NOW and MSNBC have remained in rolling breaking news coverage since Saturday evening,” a spokesperson for NBCUniversal News Group said in a statement to CNN. “As we continue to cover this story into the week, the networks will continue to cross simulcast, alternating between NBC News, NBC News NOW and ‘MSNBC Reports,’ so there is one news feed covering this developing situation.”
Stunning. On this uniquely impactful morning, #MSNBC pulls its signature show #MorningJoe, for fear that some jackwagon panelist would say something grotesquely inappropriate. Profoundly pathetic… and probably a wise move on their part. pic.twitter.com/JqqDSGfz9f

MSNBC decided to continue running special coverage of the assassination attempt.
The anti-Trump show regularly warns viewers that Trump is a threat to our non-existent democracy (Constitutional federal republic!). I never watch it, but has any guest ever claimed that Trump would put gays in concentration camps? I’m sure many guests have said something along the lines of allowing Russia to take over the world.

“Yanked Morning Joe!”
That’s nice. I hope it hurt.
The view and morning Joe are useless gossip and dear God, why, oh why, are they given any publicity
The View is an interesting case in that they are all talking at once. I’ve seen women in restaurants or coffee shops doing the same thing. How they can keep track of what is going on is beyond me.
Ladies? How do you do that?!?
They can’t. Effective communication isn’t the goal. It’s a weird ritual. I suspect it is related to establishing a hierarchy.
Whichever harpy gets the largest audience, “wins”.
Similar to listening to the squawking of a hen house.
EXACTLY.
It’s all irritainment for our 19th amendment voters.
No, he usually pays Minka to do that.
What?? They took Joe Bidens mouth pieces off the air?? Who are the Bidens going to tune into this morning that will tongue lap them like Mika and Joe do??
Joe might be inattentive to the balance of feelings of women, who are tuning in to find the most entertaining way to comprehend things.
The rebalancing has to be done by a woman.
A guy mostly just thinks that shooting candidates is a bad idea because it leads to unsavory consequences without worrying about a feelings-balance.
but all the lies,,,not opinion,,but lies they spew was 24/7 acceptable by lefty
MSNBC was worried about ‘panelists’ saying something inappropriate?
Much more likely Joe and Mika would say multiple things that are inappropriate, and we all know it.
MSNBC was probably more worried about having a target put on THEM.
They can read the room. Republicans booing McConnell.
A pressure cooker rattling sounds a lot like a bump stock.
Meanwhile, Facebook feeds of millions of users are being inundated with distraction and delay along with tons of ads.
Things deemed acceptable to say on Friday are now considered inappropriate to say on Monday.
Murder with Morning Joe will be back after a very brief intermission.
So MSNBC is concerned about inappropriate comments and fake news? Wow. Glad to hear it. When did that happen?
After the predictable consequences of their actions.
That happened when Dems started of have that squeezy is feeling that their jig is just about up, and that they are going to be held accountable. Criminal prosecutions and civil lawsuits. Dems have very dark days ahead.
Hopefully, they will be held accountable in the marketplace because there’s zero chance of them being held accountable in any court of law, as obvious as it’s been for the last 8 years that an assassination attempt was the inevitable conclusion of their gaslighting rhetoric. There’s simply too many of them, and their speech is arguably too close to 1A.
Nonetheless, the assassin was 20 years old, so he’d been hearing this hateful, libelous rhetoric since age 12. This is North Korean level of brainwashing.
I’d argue even younger. Starting at 2008 when Obama was elected. Especially if his parents were lefties. He’d have been four years old but he’s probably grown up his whole life hearing that Republicans/Conservative/The Right are evil.
Unless they yank Joe forever, he will mouth an inappropriate comment sooner or later
The probability of these two nitwits saying something that would get them fired and MSNBC sued for a billion bucks is roughly 110% The safest thing for MSNBC to do is to leave Morning Joe off the air for a week or two, and quietly replace it with a real news program. If they have one.
An inside source says there’s a Richard Simmons Retrospective Memorial and Multi-Day Telethon in the works.
Stranger things have happened in real life. Our local radio station punted a rather well-known national Leftist from the Sunday morning lineup when he got too annoying and replaced him with Casey Kasem’s American Top 40 from the 80s. Yes, in 2022, and it is still more popular now than what it replaced.
I’m not sure this makes sense, inappropriate comments are what is that entire show is built on
Leftists at MSNBC are disappointed trump is still alive??
Of course they are.
If that is not an admission of extreme, unadulterated bias, nothing is.
If the Left ceases their Hitler rhetoric, that’s an admission of guilt.
If the Left continues their Hitler rhetoric, that’s also an admission of guilt.
They’ve been caught red-handed. It’s lose-lose no matter what they do.
Wake me up when they’re in Guantanamo Bay.
Remember when they used to gaslight us about how this jackhole was a ‘conservative’?
Faces made to be slapped or punched.
