I had Andrea Mitchell on for a minute just now...

[brush]

trying to hear the latest on the document scandal and it's hard to listen to her stumble over words and struggle to get simple sentences out. I know she announced she's leaving soon but IMO she should've left quite a while ago as she hasn't been showing a great degree of competence for years, not to mention her obvious partisan leaning to the right she exhibits, especially against Hillary.

Anyone know when she's leaving?

[PCIntern]

1. NSE....

Not Soon Enuf

[Brainfodder]

4. I don't watch any I still want Mrs. Greenspan to FUCK OFF!

[BlackSkimmer]

5. Why do you call her by her husband's name?

Seems a little, um, un-progressive.

[Brainfodder]

8. Reminding.... She been way too Chucktoddy is what I vaguely remember when I used to have cable TV.

[PCIntern]

10. When she retires I'm gonna re-post

My Andrea story from Philly a long long time ago.

[liberalla]

13. I look forward to it! I always find your stories quite interesting.

[LenaBaby61]

15. Twitterverse lit into her yesterday, because of her horrible guest host .....

job yesterday. She's now a clownish HACK, who stumbles, stutters, bumbles, fumbles her way through telecasts, who also shows favoritism to the GQP US Taliban party because of her stupid bothsiderisms analogies. Funny, but I don't recall a Dem president or Dems starting a whole ass civil insurrection at the US Capitol in modern times, nor an installed president with russia's help whose in as much trouble as fatso is due to the fact that he more than likely was selling sensitive documents to his despot buddies overseas for money. He IS a secret agent for foreign countries against his OWN country.

Yeah, Mrs. Hack needs to hit the road and fast. She's doing more and more damage to what little credibility/career she has left and what she has left of a career and credibility is running on empty as Jackson Browne would say.

2. i switch the station as soon as her disgusting appearance appears on the screen

[Funtatlaguy]

3. I flip from MSNBC to CNN for only 3 reasons.

Andrea
Chuck
Over caffeinated nerd math boy screaming at me from the numbers board.

[samsingh]

24. those are exactly my reasons

[calimary]

6. I agree. She should have stepped away awhile ago.

When she hadn’t yet started mangling and getting lost in the copy. It’s become painful to watch. She’s stayed WAY past her sell-by date.

It’s unfortunate, because she could have legitimately gone out celebrated for her long career, period. But she held on too long, and our last memories of her broadcasts are of a woman in serious mental decline.

If THAT’S how you want to go out, well, okay, I guess. People remember most easily what they heard or saw last.

[brush]

11. Yes. She stayed too long. Working when you don't have to...

is not the be-all and end-all, and I'm sure she's well off financially.

Having your time as your own with no boss and office to rush to is glorious.

[calimary]

22. Yep! I'm there now. And loving it!

But then again, I earned every minute of it.

[jcgoldie]

7. she always seems increasingly bored and disinterested

Almost the point that she hasn't the energy to finish sentences. I think the absurdity of Trump just completely wore out her both siderism.

[OAITW r.2.0]

9. I've noticed that too. She seems to be struggling to finish her thoughts

I hope Velshi gets this spot when Andrea retires.

[LenaBaby61]

17. From your lips ... I LOVE Ali 💖

He's earned the right to have his OWN show. Whether he's out in the field, or around the world or at the desk doing his newscasts/filling in for other hosts, Ali ALWAYS delivers the goods.

[calimary]

23. Agreed wholeheartedly!

He’s earned it, toiling in the back of the vineyard and paying his dues. He’s got the credibility too.

And frankly, they can overhaul their weeknight lineup, too.

It may be heresy to say here, but I’d talk to Rachel Maddow. Tell her we’re NOT gonna chop up the five-day workweek just cuz you don’t feel like putting g the time in anymore.

NO MORE just-work-Mondays.

Sorry!

We’re gonna go back to five-day weekdays/weeknights. And if you don’t want to do that anymore and you want just one night? Then we’ll give you a biggie on the weekends. How ‘bout your own version of a “Saturday Night Special”?
A Maddow-designed riff on the old “That Was the Week that Was”? Two hours leading into the little cal news and “Saturday Night Live”. The Rachel version of “Must-See TV”. You can work on it whatever hours you want and we can promote the bejeezuss out of it. Event TV, with your take on the week’s news.

I think that’d be “Must-See TV” for loads of Rachel fans. I’d certainly love to see her take on the week. She could put the official period on the end of the sentence, and do it HER way.

[liberalla]

20. Oooh, Velshi yes!!!

[yorkster]

21. Yes yes yes. Ali should replace Andrea.

If he wants daytime, that hour should be his.

Do the right thing. MSNBC.
Velshi has the right stuff
and more.

[global1]

14. I Was Flipping Channels And Came Across Her Asking A Question....

in which she was questioning the M-A-L search in a way that supported what the Repugs are saying about the search.

I immediately turned her off.

She's well past her 'beyond use date'.

[LenaBaby61]

18. And she was on a run my friend told me .....

of hammering down on the fact that Biden's 'old.'

Uh earth to Mitchell, you're not that much YOUNGER than Pres. Biden. Pot meet kettle

"Now get to steppin'" as the character from the Martin Lawrence show used to say.

[Paladin]

16. Can't wait to see Andrea Mitchell stumbling out the door and going away.

Hopefully accompanied by Chuck Todd.

[LenaBaby61]

19. THIS 👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻

[shrike3]

25. I hadn't watched her in years. I turned on MSNBC waiting for the hearing to start.

And I was shocked at the way she now struggles to do her job. You think someone, in her family at least, would have intervened before now.

[BannonsLiver]

26. I've got some bad news

She’s not retiring. I mean I’m sure she will eventually but the tweet that was shared here last week turned out to be fake and the author deleted the thread. She’s made no announcement about retiring.

[brush]

29. That's sad. The few who watch her will get to see...

her deterioration.

[jalan48]

27. She must appeal to the Wall St crowd.

[onethatcares]

28. accidental channel stop

led me to believe the family should take away the keys to the car.
