On her radio, MSNBC contributor Jennifer Rubin definitely criticizes her company’s business model and revises her comments about the pair after revealing their conference with President-elect Donald Trump. She also went on an unprecedented break against her own system and her” Morning Joe” coworkers Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski.
On Friday’s episode of” Jen Rubin’s Green Room”, Rubin accused Scarborough and Brzezinski of “forgetting” that their viewers “despises Trump” and that people wanted them to “hold the series against Trump” rather of engaging with the approaching leader.
” What were they thinking? What did they believe their target market was? Rubin asked. ” Well, perhaps this was n’t about their audience. They might have been trying to protect themselves or fend off punishment they believed would be forthcoming. But definitely, these are wealthy, famous people. What should they be concerned about? It was just an abhorrent illustration of how eagerly but some elites are to stand up for what they believe will be heard, to win over others, to divert attention, to deflect any incoming criticism that may come their way from the White House.
They are being punished for it, they claim. They are hemorrhaging their market. Of course, this only serves to complicate the cause and issue of the separation of MSNBC and its other cord systems. And that is, wire tv is dying”, Rubin said. ” Most of you probably have n’t watched MSNBC since the election either, and not understanding your audience and continuing to serve up the same chewed-over talking points with the same panels, essentially same program day, after day, after day, hour after hour, is no longer working. But Comcast has said,’ Fine, rewrite you down. You people go fight for yourselves. And whether that business model may be worthwhile after the spin-off is finished will be the problem. Can they afford to pay Rachel Maddow, God thank her, 20 plus million dollars a year? Does that get promoted to back that up? Does that require paying wires to back that up? We do n’t know. We do n’t know if MSNBC, a year from now, is gonna exist, or whether it’s gonna be in some slim down fashion”.
Rubin, even a Washington Post journalist, went on by offering tips on how MSNBC is “rethink their model”.

This is not working, so get rid of the habit of chewing on the same three or four reports all day long with a swarm of participants all parroting up the same line to the network. It’s dull. It’s no good Television. They need to do something different, and they should appear to concepts that are successful”, Rubin said. They ought to resemble The Onion in appearance. Hey, they’ve purchased Info War. I ca n’t wait to watch what they’re gonna program. They may look to television programs that, yes, may be less newsworthy but really contain a lot more data than they do.
