MSNBC needs a weekend makeover

[Boydog]

Jonathan Capehart is great but Joshua Johnson and Medhi Hasan need to get the heave ho. Sharpton must have compromising pictures of network brass to be on both days. They should give the entire morning block to Capehart. Great interviewer with great guests.

1. Awesome guests and really knows how to ask questions.

Love him.



The Rev is OK but, does he really need to get an hour?

[Boydog]

3. David Plouffe should get Sharpton's slot

[brooklynite]

2. It must be sad to be forced to watch so many hours of bad TV...

[obnoxiousdrunk]

4. Lol !

[WHITT]

5. Capehart Is Good

Does well on Friday's PBS newshour, particularly since he's opposite David Brooks.

[agingdem]

6. I like Mehdi Hasan

he has a low bullshit tolerance..he's no nonsense and I find that refreshing..

[Raine]

7. I quit watching them on the weekend when all they ever had was prison Lockup shows

and I never went back. I don't have a clue as to what they've put on since then.

[MVP Kamala]

13. I miss Lock Up. Rachel would end her show on Fridays with

“Time for prison” 😂😂

8. Truthfully, I don't listen to them much since trump is gone.

I still have CNN or MSNBC on in background, but just don’t pay much attention because I’m not worried above trump’s latest screw up. CNN has some good prerecorded shows on Saturday and Sunday nights.

Before inauguration, I thought CNN and MSNBC just about all weekend slots were good, probably because I wanted to hear what the heck was going on. Not so much, now. Kind of like it.

9. I guess you didn't see Medhi's interview with Dan Crenshaw tonight?

It's trending on twitter.

[dhol82]

15. Missed that one. How did it go?

[brush]

10. Your opinion only. Everybody has one.

11. Alicia Menendez show is really good

She focuses on immigration issues which has been really helpful lately.
Mehdi's show is always provocative. I don't agree with everything he says but he definitely is a great interviewer. His interview with Congressman Crenshaw tonight was impressive.

20. +1

[Coventina]

12. What's wrong with Joshua Johnson and Medhi Hasan?

I like them both.

I don't like that Hasan is anti-choice, but other than that I enjoy his show quite a bit.



eta: I hate the Dateline marathon they have on overnight. When I have insomnia, I'd much prefer reruns of shows I missed during the day.

14. And send Tiffany Cross with them

I like what she has to say but can’t stand to listen to her as host. I can tolerate her for short guest appearances. However, I can’t listen to her high pitched voice for longer than that. It is a shame because I like her ideas.

[dhol82]

16. I feel the same. She is a really good interviewer and has great guests. However

that voice just grates on me.
They should get her a vocal coach to tone it down a bit.

[diehardblue]

19. I hated to say the same thing about her voice. My daughter equates it to nails scratching on a

chalk board. That is sad because she is extremely knowledgeable and a great interviewer.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

24. Same here. I've liked her doing panel on other shows but I can't take that voice too long.

[lagomorph777]

21. I never noticed that.

[milestogo]

25. Me neither.

I think she's great.

[Boydog]

23. Zerlina Maxwell should have gotten Cross's slot

[USALiberal]

27. Sounds like your problem! nt

[Celerity]

17. De-rec. Medhi Hasan is great.

[turbinetree]

18. Medhi Hasan pulls no punches he should be on Meet the Press.......as the moderator ............

[BannonsLiver]

22. Imagine sitting around all weekend watching cable news.

[USALiberal]

26. LOL, ok! nt

[PatSeg]

28. I really like Capehart

and I am so glad he finally got his own show. He is an excellent host and interviewer. That said, I haven't watched much news on the weekends the last few weeks. After four years of Trump, I guess I needed a break.

29. What is this dislike of Rev. Sharpton?

I like his insights. I am not religious at all, but I appreciate his views that are shaded by his faith. I don't see anything wrong with that.
