Tired of Losing: Why Comcast May Cut Ties With MSNBC

Donald Trump's first term as president was the best thing that ever happened to MSNBC. The Democratic-aligned cable news channel enjoyed record ratings between 2017 and 2020 as anxious #Resistance liberals tuned in for group therapy sessions hosted by Joy Reid, Nicolle Wallace, Rachel Maddow, and other anti-Trump commentators whose increasingly unhinged rhetoric mirrored the deteriorating mental health of their viewers. But after four years of sagging ratings under President Joe Biden, amid a media landscape that has changed dramatically since 2016, there is reason to doubt that MSNBC and its roster of relentlessly partisan grievance-mongers can repeat that success in Trump's second term. A more pressing question: Can the network even survive in its current form?

As it would be a nice transition to civility, I'd prefer to let them keep spewing their stupidity. Censorship has a nasty habit of not only silencing the truth, but also masking the sentiments of the unhinged. Let them have their platform to spew their hate, bias, and lies, and we can continue pointing it out.

I don't listen to it either, until it becomes viral or added into other media sources, as there are always people watching. As of late, they've been shooting their own selves in the foot, it gets noticed, and pointed out. I tried watching MSNBC, CNN a long time ago to understand the perspectives of others. But it is unwatchable and not worth my time. So, let them have their little channel to spew their crap, they will be called on the ill-advised topics/perspectives they "report" on, and become less relevant to the larger population of Americans. In the meantime, normal and sane Americans need to capitalize on the venues people actually go to for information. Be it more balanced media sources, podcasts, talk radio. Keep bringing people in and present balanced view from both sides from people who are not trying to act as surrogates to one or the other.

It would be remiss to add that Comcast has included the following in this sale: MSNBC, CNBC, Bravo, and Oprah Winfrey’s Oxygen
