Just want to say

no matter what you might think of MSNBC, I just saw a new network promo using the clip of a Mr. Bennett reminding one of Sondland's attorneys that he should recall the role of the press!

I think that's one of their best promos and they wasted no time in producing it since it just happened this morning.

There are a couple others I like but I was just truly impressed with the speed at which they recognized it as a powerful statement.

I often watch the European live stream of the network and they have only network promos during the commercial breaks and the promos they have are so old they appear to have a rind on them. This one will be enjoyable for a while.

I stream it in the evenings now that I have a new set up and strong signal. Today I watched both pressers. I have been in shock and horror all day. I have to turn off my ad blocker for most streams so I limit my stream time. I do like to spend time on DU and I love that you post all those videos so I can see them too!

Other than those that I mentioned, I try to stay away from screens.

Sorry but I don't think I know who Bill Bennett is..? I think journalist's name is Jeffrey-?

I just think it's probably one of the best moments for this guy to have in a promo that features him. His manner of handling that jerk was amazingly perfect and historic, I think.

They've aired something like 3 new ads over just the past few weeks. And they've been good, powerful ones, imo.

just a shout out to a good reporter and that he was recognized for a really good moment where he was quick and precisely correct.
