TWEETY IS GONE

[skip fox]

He just announced it and apologized for his comments to women.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

1. Seriously?

Did they fire him, or reschedule him, or did he retire??

[Pachamama]

2. They made an agreement....

[MontanaMama]

4. Sounds fired to me.

Says he talked with MSNBC management.

[skip fox]

5. Looks consentual.

They probably asked him (strongly) to retire.

[2naSalit]

8. He didn't say exactly

He needs to retire

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

3. Wow...

[global1]

6. And We Still Have Trump Around To Deal With....nt

[Pachamama]

7. I was expecting him to say its health related....

Early Dementia....

I am not saying that sarcastically....I am serious....

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

9. He seems to have been losing the plot lately.

Kornacki is on now but I hope he's not the permanent replacement.

[Pachamama]

17. Oh please....do not let Kornacki be his replacement....

The fact that Chris Matthews isn't doing "a last show" says a lot....

This is crazy fast to disappear and just do a last statement saying its your last hardball and then not even do an actual show....

But please MSNBC - either cancel the show and replace it with something else - but if you keep it - please do not have Kornacki...I will NEVER watch....

[LaurenOlimina]

10. Holy crap he is gone gone!

Kornacki is filling in.

[OrlandoDem2]

11. I'll probably watch MSNBC less. I actually liked him.

[PCIntern]

13. Jesus

TV history

[skip fox]

14. Looks like MSNBC wasn't ready for the announcement

and he walked off immediately. Steve Kornacki trying to fill up the rest of the show?

[2naSalit]

19. +1

Looks like it. Kornacki looks shell shocked.

[ChazII]

21. That was my impression, too.

It was certainly a surprise, imho, to Steve Kornacki.

[Judi Lynn]

15. Such good news. Any replacement other than Chuck will be great.

Thank you for the welcome news.

[2naSalit]

16. He doesn't seem

to be one who gets along with all the other folks all that well.

Kornacki just came on and will head up the show. Matthews delivered his good bye and now he's gone.

[Pachamama]

20. Kornacki didn't look like he knew....he looked blindsided and immediately it went to commercial and

....its as if they had to quickly fill time and get organized....

This was a bomb dropped....

[Piasladic]

22. Now of course updates about the virus

Sort of like the idea that Tweety just left like that -even if I didn't like him

[skip fox]

23. I'm not a great fan, but Kornacki seems to be doing a seamless job.

[2naSalit]

27. That's what I thought. ...nt

[Paladin]

18. Way overdue.

MSNBC now needs to get Chuck Todd off the air, as well.

[doc03]

34. Why all the hate on Chuck Todd nt

[Paladin]

35. He's in, WAY over his head. Definite talent deficit.

And his non-stop, both-sides-are-equally-guilty trashing of Hillary in the 2016 campaign made him a candidate for firing, in my opinion. MSNBC has a number of hosts who could do a better job than him.

[doc03]

41. The thing of it is MTP is not supposed to be biased. MTP

is not a political opinion show like say Rachael Maddow or Sean Hannity. I remember everyone hated
David Gregory too, I think Chuck Todd is an improvement over him.

[Volaris]

43. Hes a no talent hack that thinks 'both sides' equates to credible journalism.

[kairos12]

24. Don't let the both sides do it door hit you in the ass.

[blm]

30. ✔️✔️✔️

[dumptrump1]

25. He made comments to women? What?

God I'm slow on the uptake these days.

[skip fox]

29. It's been in the news for a week or so.

I've not attended to it much but it seems to be unwanted comments about women's physical appearance. He acknowledged such.

[dumptrump1]

31. Oh jeez...

[budkin]

26. Bring back Keith!!!

WE WANT OLBERMANN!

[Darwin2019]

28. Yes Want Keith

[Paladin]

36. Damn good idea. (nt)

[eleny]

38. Dare to dream!

Can you imagine how he'd go after Trump? I'd be over the moon. Even if he could only keep it together until after the election.

[Bluethroughu]

32. See ya wouldn't want to be ya

Bring on Keith Olbermann.

[Democrats Ascendant]

33. What was his opening stinger?

I was in the other room and just missed it....

[Dagstead Bumwood]

39. No stinger.

Ari threw the show to him, the opening intro played without us seeing him (which seemed odd), and then he did a few minutes before going to a break. It was damn strange.

[Democrats Ascendant]

40. Thanks!

[Dagstead Bumwood]

42. Damn, Kornacki just teared up

as he was signing off. Nearly got me to chock up a bit, too.

[showblue22]

37. I liked him.

He's better than the new people by a long shot.
