Ronna is Better Off

For John, BLUF:  With the NBC news staff following in the wake of those folks at The New York Times, we are seeing the employees telling management how to operate, even if, in the long run, it isn't good for profits or the news.  Nothing to see here; just move along.

NBC News Division Cretins Are So Awful That They're Almost Making Me Like Ronna McDaniel

From PJ Media, by Commentator Stephen Kruiser, 26 March 2024, 3:55 PM.

Here is the lede plus three:

The reports of former Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel getting hired by NBC News didn't get much attention from me at first. It was very much a "Let them have each other" situation as far as I was concerned. My overwhelming dislike of Ms. Romney McD's tenure at the RNC has been well documented here.

The NBC News division, however, is far and away the worst of the behemoth disseminators of American leftist propaganda. It didn't take very long for its prevaricating horde of Democratic National Committee lapdogs to make even my icy heart want to side with McDaniel.

Sort of.

The brouhaha among regulars in the NBC News division is being presented as consternation over the fact that McDaniel is, according to them, an "election denier," the Left's grammatically clunky catch-all label for anyone who questions any part of any election. They're beating their cancel culture drums and pretending that they occupy the ethical high ground.

I would say Mr Stephen Kruiser is a little over the top in his comments on Ms Ronna McDaniel, former Republican National Committee Chairwoman.  She may have had a different drift from other Republicans, but she is a Republican and Republicans should have a big tent.  The real issue here is not Ms McDaniel, but the deplorable bigotry of the talking heads at NBC and MSNBC.

Take, for example, this Tweet by News Reader Chuck Todd:

The issue isn’t about ideology, it’s about basic truth. Those trying to make this a left-right issue are being intentionally dishonest. This is about whether honest journalists are supposed to lend their credibility to someone who intentionally tried to ruin ours.

In what reality is Mr Todd living?  Why would he think the average Joe Schmoe would take him as the model of Journalism?  I woould not.  He comes from a barn yard of hacks who have only one way of viewing things and who are dismissive of those who do not align with them.

I believe Ms McDaniel is better off not being with NBC, and I suspect she will pocket a nice chunk of change.  In fact, if she is not compensated for this outrageous termination by the executive suite stiffs at NBC, she should sue them for several million dollars.  Now there is some news I could enjoy following.

Good Luck Ronna McDaniel.
