Following their publication of a new appointment with US President-elect Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago, MSNBC workers are outraged.
An MSNBC staff member told Fox News Digital,” Cowardice. Doing exactly what]anti-Trump historian ] Tim Snyder warns on our air not to do: obey in advance. It’s ugly but simply unsurprising”.
According to the outsider, MSNBC employees no longer treat the morning program hosts with contempt and view their deeds as greedy.
The criticism has spread to cultural systems. While number Katie Phang wrote on X,” Normalizing Trump is a bad idea,” MSNBC source Jennifer Rubin expressed disapproval on Bluesky. Period”.
” Katie Phang is best. It’s normalisation ( and it’s entry bulls—)”, the MSNBC individual shared with Fox News Digital. Editors are not required to have access to their subjects in order to hold them accountable. None of it is convincing. The obvious solution is credible: they are exploiters”.
According to the source, MSNBC may experience a potential audience resentment following the Mar-a-Lago conference, with some supporters now calling for boycotts.
” This feels serious”, they noted. ” I ca n’t imagine]parent company ] Comcast minds this development. However, they work for MSNBC.
A different community cause defended the meeting to Fox News Digital, citing the hosts ‘ repeated objections to Trump’s rhetoric and positions.
They said,” Not sure when it was a bad thing to come in and voice concerns about threats against journalists and politicians.”
On Monday night, Scarborough addressed possible criticism. ” We’re not here to support or normalise Donald Trump”, he informed people. We’re here to record on him and maybe gain insights that will help us all better understand these heartbreaking circumstances.
Scarborough and Brzezinski, after welcoming with Trump during the 2016 GOP key, became robust critics after his administration began.
Their first meeting with Trump in seven years was at the current meeting. They discussed several issues including pregnancy, imprisonment, and political retribution threats. The guests described it as an effort to “restart contacts”.
” For those asking why we would go speak to the president-elect during such fraught times, especially between us, I guess I would ask back – why would n’t we”? Brzezinski explained. Washington and the nation have been greatly divided by five years of political conflict. We have expressed our deep concern about President Trump’s actions and words in the obsceneness of the conversation as clearly as we can.
” But for roughly 80 million Americans, vote for, public testing, January 6, were not as important as the troubles that moved them to give Donald Trump back to the White House with their ballot. Joe and I realize it’s time to do something different, and that starts with not only talking about Donald Trump, but even talking with him, “he added.
Trump addressed Fox News Digital on Monday, calling the meeting “extremely courteous.” Joe Scarborough contacted me to request a conference with him and Mika, and I concurred that it would be beneficial if it did, according to Trump. Several things were discussed, and I very much appreciated the fact that they wanted to have available contact… In many ways, it’s too bad that it was n’t done long ago.”
” The meet ended in a very positive way, and we agreed to speak in the future, “he concluded.
