What Was NBC Even Thinking?
The Atlantic ^ | 3/25/24 | David A. Graham

Posted on 03/26/2024 5:21:43 AM PDT by cotton1706

An old journalism axiom says that if everyone’s mad at you, you must be doing something right. Since NBC announced that it had hired Ronna McDaniel, the recently deposed chair of the Republican National Committee, as a paid contributor, everyone’s been mad. NBC executives are sure to be consoling themselves that they’re doing something right. It’s just hard to see what.

For ya see, hiring anti-Trump Michael Steele (former RNC chair) is perfectly ok.

But hiring semi-pro Trump Ronna ROMNEY McDaniel (former RNC chair) is JUST TERRIBLE!

Also, Jen Psaki and George Stephanopoulos are perfectly fine.

NBC doesn’t want anybody appearing on their “news” programs who is not goosestepping in unison with the Left.

Sad if it’s true. I should hope that she will be courageous enough to be the counter-point to the leftist spew, but if she isn’t, then why did she take the job. Just for the money? That’s the best gig she could get? If it’s true, and she could sell out her principles and ideals so easily, she never should have had her job with the RNC in the first place. How is it that these people aren’t screened better?

I suspect this rejection of McDaniel is theater! In the end she will be a star liberal talking head! Watch!

“Rona Romney will waddling in lock step with the left.”

She already is. I saw a clip of her flapping her blubber lips pronouncing that Biden truly won the election, and that he’s legitimate.

Regime propagandist Jen Psaki on NBC, Jeffrey Toobin jerking off on CNN and Lolita Island frequent flyer and Junanita Broaddrick rapist’s former employee Stephanopolous on ABC demanding Nancy Mace explain her Trump endorsement in light of the Jean Carroll civil trial.

If we traded our entire media establishment for North Korea’s, we would get less propaganda in our daily lives.

Just to clarify to everybody who wonders where she will stand, left or right; her positions will be exactly what she’s told they will be by the people who sign her pay check. If they tell her to be opposition she will, and if they tell her to get on the liberal bandwagon, she will do that. Don’t delude yourself into thinking this woman has principles. Very, very few of them do.

Of course! She’ll be another Michael Steele...because she’s a Romney!

Her grandfather was anti-Goldwater George Romney and her uncle is anti-Trump Mitt Romney.

It is reported that Ronna gets 300k for her NBC gig. That will buy her a lot of orioles.

Don’t pat yourself on the back too much. This could simply mean you are objectively a POS.

"NBC executives are sure to be consoling themselves that they’re doing something right. It’s just hard to see what." _______________________________________________________________ Not that I'm a big fan of McDaniel, but simply adding someone who's not a completely out-of-touch Leftist is the equivalent of "doing something right." It actually proves the NBC executives point that the writers in The Atlantic can't see that.

Ronna is a preachy woman with a preachy uncle.

Maybe not preachy enough to make PMSNBC standards, but preachy enough to be embraced by the FAUX conservative RINO crowd.

Ol’ serpent head has put a nifty term into the public discourse, preachy woman.

I can’t imagine there is much meat on orioles, and what there is lean and tough.

I knew someone would catch me up on that goof. Oreos, family sized pack, the double stuffed ones. Ronna’s Ozempic will have trouble keeping up.
