1. His show seems to be breaking some news

about some “book” that Giuliani has and that it hasn’t seen the light of day yet. Former Trump attorney Goldberg mentioned it. Keep watching I guess.

2. I think he realized he made a mistake and

then backed off and let Rep. Swalwell say what he wanted. Probably a producer in his ear told him to shut up.

[kentuck]

6. I noticed that also.

But he has interrupted other guests when I wanted to hear what they had to say.

Then he had nothing to add...

I'm about ready to take him off my recorder.

[Mc Mike]

21. I think he's used to having to keep bad guests on track.

People who the honchos on MSNBC want him to have on.

[kentuck]

22. I still got him on my recorder but...

...he's gonna hafta get his shit together.

[Mc Mike]

23. Very dry sense of humor, bats his eyelashes a bit too much.

I love how he wrangled Randy Credico into some semblance of rational behavior. And he knows more about modern music than me, by far.

[kentuck]

24. That was entertaining..

...to a certain point.

I think I stopped cataloguing music about 1980?

[Mc Mike]

25. Though I don't know the modern hip hop or rap, I like that he knows the lyrics,

is paying attention to the newest music, and pushed to be allowed to have that be part of his political coverage.

3. goldberg sure seems sleazy

[Miles Archer]

4. Definitely not my favorite MSNBC on-air personality.

The interruptions, for one. There's more, but that's a biggie.

[Dagstead Bumwood]

10. The rap lyrics are a close second for me.

The show just comes to a standstill when he insists on interjecting them. Sometimes a really good discussion will be underway and he brings it all to a halt with that nonsense. Then they cut to a blank-faced guest who starts smiling nervously because they want to be a good sport about it. You're not as cute as you think you are, Ari.

[Miles Archer]

14. That's a non-starter for me

Some of his guests bring it up first, as a good-natured jab, but it's awkward and forced, as is his "Fall Back Friday."

And yes, "You're not as cute as you think you are, Ari."

Ari is definitely amused by Ari, and it's annoying, not endearing.

5. I'm yelling at my streaming shows more lately.

[Dagstead Bumwood]

12. As long as you don't resort to yelling at clouds

I think you're good

[Miles Archer]

15. I was yelling at Stephanie Ruhle and Steve Cornacki during their recent Rand Paul segments

Then I was yelling as MSNBC replayed clips from both for the rest of the day.

[Karadeniz]

7. He interrupted Goldberg before he could say his number 3 item in a list about Trump.

[Sewa]

8. He had to " explain " the Mulvaney presser

We all heard what he said and we don’t need Ari putting his spin on it. He doesn’t need to talk down to us.

[BumRushDaShow]

9. I think a lot of the "interrupting" is due to producers yelling them questions in their ear

and every once in awhile during heated exchanges or breaking news, all of these hosts will often get flustered and mention that someone is "talking in their ear" and telling them to do something or ask something or mention something, etc.

All of this is in addition to whatever is up on their teleprompters.

[DeminPennswoods]

11. Only sometimes?

He's gotten increasingly annoying and seems to be completely full of himself as a lawyer. I've started watching local news, CNN or just doing something else when he's on these days.

[KathleenDarrah]

13. I agree totally.

[gopiscrap]

20. welcome to DU

[USALiberal]

16. Weekly people hate all MSNBC hosts at some point, just stop watching. nt

[elias7]

17. Note to several posters: Ari Melber is on CNN, not MSNBC

[Luciferous]

26. He hosts The Beat on MSNBC

[NCLefty]

18. Unpopular opinion: His hip-hop obsession annoys me.

He's always doing what now feels like "dad jokes" but using hip hop lyrics and I don't think most of the MSNBC audience gets it. (Clearly, I do not. :p )

I agree with this post above me though: "Weekly people hate all MSNBC hosts at some point, just stop watching. nt". I watch far too much of it and can probably find something annoying about all of them. :p

[malaise]

19. That pissed me off too

It was rude and out of order.

[ritapria]

27. ARI is a very bright man

Quite telegenic ….I do hope however he refrains from the banal music associations the day Trump resigns from office
