Nobody ever saw Jeannie’s belly button...
Really? I could have swore I did.

So you had it all figured out? Good for you. You knew that it wasn’t Joe and Mika’s choice to go to Mar-a-Lago but that they were instructed to go by management at Comcast? Good for you. You also figured out that the primary reason Comcast is ditching MSNBC is because of the damage they’re doing to the the parent brand, NBC? Good for you. Did you post this somewhere?
Oh I always feel so guilty about enjoying schadenfreude.
“According to Bill O’Reilly, there are some very sneaky moves underway to pull these shows off the air, as they continue to drag down NBC News and ABC News like anchors on a sinking ship.”
ancient “news”, and as usual, O’Reilly is full of shite ...
Comcast/NBC will be spinning off ALL of its cable channels [not just MSNBC] except powerhouse Bravo into a new company tentatively called “SpinCo”, which will be entirely independent of Comcast/NBC, and have its own stock, its own board of directors and its own C-suite ...
the stock in said new company will be distributed free of charge to current Comcast/NBC stockholders, who are free to do said stock as they see fit [sell, hold, buy more] ...
word is that NBC/Comcast may force MSNBC to remove the “NBC” from their name [it would be a hoot if Microsoft forced them to remove the “MS” as well] ...
it’s also unclear at this time whether NBC/Comcast will share free of charge with MSNBC the news that it currently gathers for itself ...
nonetheless, the gross revenues of these spunoff cable channels is 7 billion dollars, so the new “SpinCo” should be reasonably healthy ...
no one knows what, if anything, the new, yet to be named board of directors of “SpinCo” will be doing with MSNBC ...
O’Reilly performed a service for a long time, despite his flaws and limitations.
When his sex scandal broke he was going to fight and said “People are going to be very shocked at what is going to come to the surface at Fox. Very shocked.” But then a sudden closed door meeting led to his silence and quick exit. He went to the Vatican and was granted an audience with the Pope. Kept his mouth shut about Fox after that.
>>Comcast/NBC will be spinning off ALL of its cable channels [not just MSNBC] except powerhouse Bravo
You’re missing the point, which is that not only has MSNBC become unprofitable, but it has become toxic, dragging down the ratings of parent company, NBC. I would be surprised if Comcast even allowed the new owner to continue using the name MSNBC.
RE: pigskins on the View....
Funny line.
Wonder if they should be transferred to Chicago which Carl Sandburg wrote in his 1914 poem “Chicago” was the “hog butcher for the world.” 🐷 🥓
Followed by this line:
“And they tell me you are crooked and I answer: Yes, it is true I have seen the gunman kill and go free to kill again.”
Winning!
I’d like to know who sent three legal notices to ABC threatening to sue if Sunny didn’t retract her lies.

I would not be surprised if somebody from Trump’s campaign or legal team contacted ABC’s legal department and laid out the facts to them. As awful as the network is, I’m sure the lawyers at ABC were well aware that Trump definitely had a case and could make ABC’s existence pretty rough once he gained office.
I can identify with the alligator. A neighbor gave me a baby gator-about a foot long. It was the weekend and he and his family left town for a few days. Needless to say my mother was not happy. We kept gator in his box in the bathtub until the neighbors returned on Monday. I was marched down to their home with the gator.
Your perspective is probably correct. The left has infiltrated all the major institutions including education. Trying to extract it is like dealing with stage 4 cancer.
NBC forfeited any appearance of fairness at the debate. We just won’t ever forget that ambush.
There’s good reason we call him O’Gasbag.
