It's painful to watch Andrea Mitchell

[BigBearJohn]

I think she needs to retire.

[Novara]

1. At this point it's not painful anymore. It's just annoying.

[aeromanKC]

2. CNN at noon!!

[snowybirdie]

7. Yes

They have some excellent discussions before the hearings. MSNBC for the recap at 8 pm though.

[hlthe2b]

17. yes and if you have roku, their app gives free access to this and other big events

sans subscription.

[Faux pas]

3. I'm

watching cnn thank you!

[Iwasthere]

4. Why has MSNBC go all in with her

[Ocelot II]

8. She's probably got a contract, and they're stuck with her.

I usually watch MSNBC for these political events, but not for the J6 hearings as long as she's commenting. I don't think it's her age, though; she's been annoying for as long as I can remember.

22. If it's in her contract, it's because the guy who negotiates & signs that contract...

...wants her to have it, or at least is OK with it.

The Suits On High want her to be the face of MSNBC.

11. I don't know, but I wish they'd stop.

I don't doubt they get a lot of complaints, on both Andrea and Chuck Todd. I bet both of them make the big bucks, too. Far exceeding others, like Katie Tur.

MSNBC wastes the noon hour on Andrea Mitchell, and Chuck Todd has ruined a once remarkable 'Meet the Press'.

5. Andrea Mitchell, it's time to retire. Go home and take care of your

96 year old husband Alan Greedspan. And get the hell off my tv.

[mopinko]

18. please.

i'd alert but too many would agree that this is a fair criticism. it's sexist bs.

[Trueblue1968]

21. And get the hell off my tv also. i can't stand her.

[Sky Jewels]

23. Oh, wow, I had no idea Evil Alan was still wasting oxygen.

I thought he'd died a decade or more ago.

[comradebillyboy]

6. I found a simple solution to that problem. I don't watch her.

In fact I've stopped watching the cable news outlets because they focus almost entirely on conflict and complaint. Very little news and lots of posturing. Although CNN and MSNBC aren't as bad as Fox they are still pretty awful.

[chillfactor]

9. When the hearings are in the morning

I watch CNN. Can't stand Mitchell. But evening recap? MSNBC.

[C_U_L8R]

19. Same here.

[crickets]

20. +1

[BlueBloodedAmerican]

10. Can't bear to look at (no facial expressions) or listen to (dull monotone) Andrea Mitchell.

Switched over to CNN for lead-in to hearing today. Watching Anderson Cooper is a big improvement over Andrea. MSNBC - are you listening to/reading our feedback?

[Jilly_in_VA]

12. Thank you

I can't stand her either, but I got dragged for calling her "Mrs. Greenspan" here even though I was mocking her at the time.

MSNBC is not listening to us on the subject of Andrea.

[H2O Man]

14. +1

I think that the Greensponge connection is important.

[Novara]

13. msnbc is really only worth the hearings recap at the end of the day.

When I was unemployed years ago I kept it on all the time and only turned the sound up when something grabbed my interest. Back then they didn't have the ever-present BREAKING NEWS crawl at the bottom of the screen - they only used it for - gasp! - news that just broke. Does anybody even remember what their non- breaking news crawl looks like? I rest my case.

Something awful has happened to ALL news since 2016, and msnbc is no exception. One thing I appreciated about Rachel is that she never has clips of the orange motherfucker on her show. But she's only on once a week now, and for post-hearing coverage. And to me, that's all that's worth watching.

The constant repetition of the same old shit spewed by the same old people who never have anything new to say, yet the constant BREAKING NEWS crawl really gets on my nerves. I';; tur it on when I get home from work but after a few minutes I turn it off.

[BigBearJohn]

15. It's painful. I have yet to see her finish one sentence without losing her train of thought.

Forever struggling to complete a thought. I have an 80 year old uncle who is easier to listen to than Andrea.
She also doesn't seem to very friendly towards Democrats. She is beyond her expiration date.

[BigBearJohn]

16. I decided to write to MSNBC and complain. Told them everytime Andrea is on, I switch to CNN.

[Deuxcents]

24. For the hearings during the day, I watch CSPAN. No talking heads

[kairos12]

25. I predict how she will complete a thought

by consulting a Ouija board.
