I know so many of you love Kornacki

[boston bean]

I really do not. I won’t watch MSNBC election coverage because of him. He really grates on my nerves.

I have been watching CNN exclusively. They aren’t all that great but better for me I guess.

[Thekaspervote]

1. My sentiments exactly...fine if everyone else likes him

[SCantiGOP]

2. If you prefer John King

all I can say is, Well, bless your heart.

[JCMach1]

5. Precisely

[BannonsLiver]

15. The thing with King is

That every time he says something there’s a qualifier about “we’ve got to count the votes.”

It’s day 3 mother fucker. we get it.

[Catherine Vincent]

27. lols

[rickford66]

16. We watched him for several minutes tonight.

He made numerous mistakes. Among others was confusing Trump with Biden and vice versa.

[W_HAMILTON]

3. I actually like him when they have him as a numbers guy during the election...

...but I do not like him as a show host during the rest of the year.

[Demsrule86]

4. I like Kornacki better than Rick Santorum which CNN always has hanging around.

To each their own I guess.

[blue neen]

6. Bingo!

I can't stand Lil Ricky.

[Demsrule86]

32. He is such a phony.

[Demsrule86]

33. He is such a phony.

[whttevrr]

20. lol... I can tolerate Kornacki when he is counting more than Santorum when he is ...

Whatever it is he does.

[Demsrule86]

34. Mostly defends the indefensible and lies.

[Hoyt]

7. He's good. His analysis of PA and GA, particularly outstanding mail ballots,

is top notch.

Even Maddow gets on him about his pants though.

[Sedona]

8. I'm not crazy about SK's delivery

But the content is spot on and understandable

[wishstar]

9. He is actually calming my nerves tonight talking about how huge Biden's percentages are in Pa.

although I haven't been watching him at all this week until tonight

[vlyons]

10. I don't mind him so much as Mr Numbers

He is a rather nervous person tho

[misanthrope]

41. Mr. Numbers?

Be careful of Mr. Wrench, though.

[broiles]

11. I really like him.

[Roland99]

12. Same here...and this is night 3 with him

[TuxedoKat]

13. I think he's doing a great job

He’s calmed down a lot. I tried to watch CNN; didn’t like their coverage nearly as much.

[KatyaR]

35. I like him, too.

He has a hell of a job, keeping up with all those numbers and such.

[USALiberal]

14. Another complainer who for some reason had to start a post

[boston bean]

18. Well it is General Discussion.

[CTyankee]

50. Thanks for this thread, BB! I don't understand the animus here against Kornacki.

He has dramatic flair. So what?

I don't have to be in love with the guy. He does kinda make me feel tired just watching him do his thing. But I'm used to it. It would be dull otherwise.

[boston bean]

51. It is just a personal thing, CT. He grates on me nerves.

I know lots love him. To each there own.

[lunatica]

17. I think he's doing a good job in this election

but Rachel, Joy and Nicolle ask him good statistical questions and he responds very well, and if they’re confused about his answer they get him to explain the numbers. For the first time ever I like what he’s doing. If someone else directs the questioning he does quite well.

So in this case I’m pretty happy with him.

[boston bean]

19. So I should try again?

[USALiberal]

21. No, just avoid him! Easy solution! Nt

[boston bean]

22. Did I ask you? Thanks for answering though. Chillax.

[USALiberal]

25. It's general discussion!!!

[boston bean]

28. That it is. Thanks for the confirmation.

[cwydro]

40. Holy cow!

Haven’t heard “chillax” in 10 years, and that was from my 12 year old Irish cousin.

[boston bean]

42. I whip the word out once in a blue moon.

🤪

[cwydro]

43. I'd forgotten it lol, but all good.

“Holy cow” is pretty dated too! And so am I.

[lunatica]

24. Sure. I would try again

He’s doing quite well explaining how and why Biden might win in spite of Trump being ahead. He is clarifying that mail in ballots are overwhelmingly Democratic votes and that’s why Biden will probably win. He’s also showing how the big city areas lean Democratic.

[patricia92243]

23. I love him! He is a hyperactive nerd. Exactly like my son :)

[Codeine]

26. I think he's amazing.

He’s on another level with his ability to drill down into results on the fly at a county level in a dozen different states.

[FakeNoose]

29. Steve Kornacki does a good job with the maps and numbers

None of the MSNBC hosts want to tackle that stuff, so they're glad to let him do it. I learn from him, and I'm glad that he tries to make things interesting.

So people have a problem with his style, but not his content. He needs to work on style, I guess.
He's been putting in long hours this week, and his analysis is good.

[nuxvomica]

30. I find him annoying but he's growing on me

I appreciate anyone who really loves their work, who's really passionate about it, and for people like that I get used to the annoyance after a while.

[Hekate]

31. You mean Tigger? He's so bouncy.

Meh. I find it easy to mute him when I get tired. He’s okay with me.

[BlueIdaho]

36. Less is More...

Kornacki is ok in short bursts but he drones on and on and on and on - telling us the same thing again and again. Frankly I’m not watching much of this M$M coverage, it’s all to breathless.

[Celerity]

37. sorry, I love him, to each his or her own

[Gothmog]

38. I like Kornacki

I like numbers

[misanthrope]

39. Tonight, I have been flipping to CNN when Kornacki appears

and likewise when King appears on CNN. I want totals but their presentation gets on my nerves.

[TomSlick]

44. To each his own (as the farmer said when he kissed the cow).

Kornacki is good at his job and enjoys it.

[pwb]

45. His screen is to low making him bend over

too much.

[Paladin]

46. Can't stand him. Fingers scraping on a blackboard... (nt)

[Vivienne235729]

47. Why don't you like him? I think he's great.

[moondust]

48. I've never been his biggest fan,

mainly due to his "animated" presentation, but I think he's doing a pretty good job with the numbers this time without so much drama.

[AngryOldDem]

49. He tends to get too deep in the weeds at times.

He has added to my angst at times because of that. John King isn’t nearly as deep as Steve, but I get all I need to know.
