CNN ^ | July 14, 2024 | Oliver Darcy

New York 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.

The decision by MSNBC to leave one of its most recognizable programs on the sidelines amid a seismic politics-driven news cycle, with the Republican National Convention getting underway in the wake of the Saturday shooting at Trump’s campaign rally, is certain to raise eyebrows.

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.

From the article.

Propagandists take time to get the narratives straight for the low information public.

They need time to come up with less obvious hate-Trump content.

Many outlets are going to need to rethink the garbage they’ve been spewing, lest Trump use it to his advantage.

Too bad they don’t know any other way.

The entire show is: “We hate Trump. Trump should die”. Very inappropriate to air at this time.

Lol....I know, got me a little excited as well!

I guess Joe and Mika need an extra day to talk about the assassination attempt without smiling so much their faces hurt. That is an acquired skill - takes time.

New guidance is being prepared for the mass media about how to blame this violence on Trumps mean tweets and MAGA followers

Out of curiosity, today is the 1st time in 6 or 8 months I tuned in to Morning Joe ...how odd that its been yanked.

Perhaps because this is an admission that MJ is and has been thee most prominent vehicle for Trump vitriol and America doesn’t need a reminder that they routinely step over the line of reasoned political discourse.

Make it permanent.

They couldn’t wipe the little ralphie, charlie brown hand in the cookie jar look that all of them have off their collective faces.
Hope they stay off.
