WOW

@NBCNews @MSNBC yanked Morning Joe off the air this morning over concerns its hosts would go off the rails - this may be the first sane programming decision made at MSNBC in Decades

There is no other way to read this besides the obvious: MSNBC cannot trust Murdering Joe and his homewerecking whore of a wife and their daily panel of Trump deranged criminals to not delight in the assassination attempt and complain only that his aim wasn't better.

Admission of guilt? MSNBC yanks Morning Joe off the air following Trump assassination attempt

Quick Hit:

MSNBC's "Morning Joe" was pulled from the air on Monday in the wake of the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. The show, hosted by Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, will resume on Tuesday despite the start of the Republican National Convention.

Key Details:

"Morning Joe" was pulled to prevent guests from making inappropriate comments that could reflect poorly on the network, according to a source familiar with the decision who spoke with CNN.

NBC News, NBC News NOW, and MSNBC have been in rolling breaking news coverage since the incident occurred.

I think the point of that is that MSNBC and NBC don't want to break for commentary, because the comments will be of a nature that could get NBC's broadcast license revoked.

The decision to pull the show was made by NBCUniversal News Group Chairman Cesar Conde, MSNBC President Rashida Jones, and the show's hosts.

Diving Deeper:

According to a report by CNN, MSNBC made the decision to pull its left-leaning talk show "Morning Joe" from the air on Monday following the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. The progressive show, hosted by Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, will not air Monday morning but will resume on Tuesday, despite the start of the Republican National Convention.

A source familiar with the matter told CNN that the show was pulled to avoid any potential inappropriate comments from its numerous guests that could tarnish the show and the network's reputation. "Given the gravity and complexity of this unfolding story, NBC News, NBC News NOW, and MSNBC have remained in rolling breaking news coverage since Saturday evening," an NBCUniversal spokesperson told CNN.

Cesar Conde, Chairman of NBCUniversal News Group, along with MSNBC President Rashida Jones and the show's hosts Scarborough and Brzezinski, made the joint decision to pull the show on Monday morning, the source revealed.

Whenever they fire someone, they get together to agree on a joint statement that the decision was agreed to by all parties. I don't believe that Scarborough and Mika the Home-Wrecker agreed to this, except to the extent that when your employer gives you an order, you "agree" to it.

[M]any Republicans have blamed Democrats' harsh rhetoric about Trump for inciting the violence. House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.), who himself was critically injured in a shooting during a Republican congressional baseball team practice in 2017, criticized Democrat leaders for what he described as "fueling ludicrous hysteria." "For weeks Democrat leaders have been fueling ludicrous hysteria that Donald Trump winning re-election would be the end of democracy in America," Scalise said in a statement. "Clearly we've seen far-left lunatics act on violent rhetoric in the past. This incendiary rhetoric must stop."
