Representative Debbie Dingell told Katy Tur she hates her theoretical questions.

[LiberalFighter]

[Wild blueberry]

1. We all do.

Thank you.

[GPV]

2. How'd that go over?

[lapfog_1]

3. about time someone said that to her

but I would drop the "theoretical questions" from my statement about her.

[Kid Berwyn]

4. Ms. Dingell makes an excellent observation.

OTOH, Ms. Tur has a lot to learn.

[dchill]

25. Ms Tur doesn't think so.

[paleotn]

40. The human appendix serves more purpose than Ms Tur.

She's more of a parasite than an evolutionary remnant, but just as useless.

[IbogaProject]

54. The human appendix holds a reserve of our gut biome

So it isn't a useless organ, that was a long held belief, which isn't true.

[agingdem]

5. I swear if you look into Katy Tur's eyes you'll see the back of her head...

I think Katy Tur is Andrea Mitchell and Donald Trump's love child...just saying

[rubbersole]

32. Could be Dick Cheney.

[paleotn]

39. "Y'know, the thing about a talking head, they've got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eyes."

To borrow from Quint in Jaws.

[MOMFUDSKI]

6. You GO

Debbie!!!!

[msfiddlestix]

7. And Tur's response?

I do appreciate Dingell handing Tur her ass with that statement.
at the same time I'd be interested to know how Tur responded.

wait. never mind

Betcha Tur simply continued with the same smarmy script and tone.

[claudette]

8. I'll go one

Step further. I hate Katy Tur. Period

[Trueblue1968]

14. I can't stand her ... Msnbc should fire Turd and Mitchell.

[FreeForm73]

9. Perhaps the reason behind this

is due to the fact that she was (is) a Phish Head, who would always do a year-ending wrap-up of stories combing the story and lyrics/song titles of Phish songs. I saw one, it had to be seen to be believed, basically talking in a circular riddle

11. Read ...

10. Katy Tur wrong again

Remember Katy Tur made the indefensible statement last week that Trump appeared to be humbled at the convention.

None of his ravings over the weekend after the Biden's announcement proves that statement.

Malignant narcissists rarely change without therapy.

Sometimes, in therapy, malignant narcissist will tell the psychotherapist what the narcissist feels the doctor wants to hear.

12. Rep. Dingell has listened to Maya Angelou

"You teach people how to treat you."

[spooky3]

52. She's partly right. But bad people who have power often ignore signals.

You may simply have to escape them, if you can.

[oregonjen]

13. I read on Threads that Rachel replied to Katy yesterday with "Yeah, whatever"

I can’t find a video of it anywhere. Anyone see that?

[CatWoman]

20. ....

[Hekate]

22. That is priceless. I saw it but I missed the import for Katy, which was -- priceless

Gods I do love Rachel

[oregonjen]

23. Thank you!

That was most excellent!

[Cha]

30. TY CatWoman!

[rubbersole]

34. Snap.

Now she'll have to change the air in her head.

[Rebl2]

44. Rachel should

take Tur down on a daily basis.

[LiberalFighter]

53. Gee Katy isn't on the 8pm special with Rachel tonight

[Tweedy]

15. I think perhaps Katie Tur

Has Stockholm’s syndrome

Have you seen how Mr. Trump imprisons the press and gets his crowds to taunt and threaten them?

What does that kind of abuse do to a person who experiences it on a daily basis?

I was shocked the press did not boycott his campaign back in 2016 when he aimed his most unhinged followers in their direction.

What our press is most lacking in is a spine. I think so many media types took such glee in baselessly attacking Joe Biden’s cognition precisely because they are so constantly bullied by Mr. Trump and his devotees that they have actually become mini bullies themselves.

You can watch this happen on a playground when a bully is not promptly stopped if you are so inclined.

If the press doesn’t learn to stand up to their bully, we need to learn to tune their fearful bullying on democrats out. That way when the gop throws their ear worms at the Vice President we will not be so susceptible to piling on.

We are scared I know. I am too. More reason to be vigilant always. If a Republican trumpie says it we won’t repeat it. We won’t dwell on it or let it poison us.

[MiHale]

26. Agreed wholeheartedly...

The press is a bunch of cowards.

[Hekate]

38. Yes. I have been saying it here since 2016, because I watched the horrifying abuse of Katy by Trump...

…during that campaign season. IMO she earned her chair at MSNBC — but some people never liked her at all and now call her Katy Turd.

Thank you for your observations — I agree. And I am by now getting disappointed with her. She had such potential.

[paleotn]

41. He's also good for the media business...

Survival of the Republic and basic sanity be damned. Much of the American press are slippery, spineless parasites who's only purpose is to enrich themselves. In that way, many of them identify with Trump.

[Codifer]

16. I saw some of that.

Mitchell and Tur were scuttling across the floor seeking negatives beyond those already scripted for them.

Disgusting.

I turned to watch Glen Ford be a peace loving sheriff. Satisfying.

[MontanaMama]

17. Katy Tur is a shit stirrer.

Glad she got called out for it. Dems need to do more of this across the board with corporate media hacks.

[Rebl2]

46. Agreed!

[sheshe2]

18. Turd

Katy Turd.
💩

[mokeyz]

19. Stephanie Miller said today

“the only thing good about Katy Tur is that she isn’t Andrea Mitchell” lol

[BigDemVoter]

37. LOL She actually said that?

I love it!

[Rebl2]

43. Actually they

are equally bad.

[AverageOldGuy]

21. Responses to theoretical questions . . .

. . . suddenly become "facts" that turn into leading headlines. That's why anchors ask such questions . . . they want to stir up bullshit to keep up their ratings.

Walter Cronkite, Huntley and Brinkley would not last a day on the air today.

[Raine1967]

24. Video here:

Tur starts questioning at the 6:47 mark.

"as I told you yesterday..."

[PCIntern]

31. Frozen Turd smile on her face

[Srkdqltr]

55. Debby is always right!!!!

[CanonRay]

27. To think she used to be Keith Olberman's girlfriend.

[niyad]

29. He seems to have appallingly bad taste in significant others.

[Chellee]

47. I know about Tur and Laura Ingraham.

But did he also date Ann Coulter? Maybe they just went to school together.

He must really need conflict in his relationships. Personal, professional, they all blow up spectacularly in the end.

[niyad]

49. Yes, he did date her as well. As I said, REALLLLLLY poor choices!

And I suspect you may be correct about the need for conflict.

[Sneederbunk]

48. And he's old enough to be her father.

[niyad]

50. Did not seem to bother her for the three years they lived together.

[niyad]

51. It will be interesting to see if KO says anything about her tomorrow on his

podcast.

[duncang]

28. She reminds me of

Andrea Mitchell during the 2016 race. Coming up with bs questions to Hillary Clinton.

[Warpy]

33. High time somebody did

Losing patience with these vapid "gotcha" fake journalists is the only rational response to their whataboutism. It's invarioably snide and dishonest. What I'm really waiting for is someone to turn the tables thoroughly on Tur or another of her ilk.

[not fooled]

35. For once, I'm sorry I wasn't watching her show.

Probably the only time I would regret not watching.

[Jean Genie]

36. Katy Tur(d)

I'm kinda sick of this woman! May she fade into oblivion sooner rather than later.

[Rebl2]

42. Thank you

Representative Dingell! Many more politicians need to speak up and take Tur down a notch or two. I quit watching Tur and MSNBC a couple years ago. Tur was one of the reasons I quit watching MSNBC.

[paleotn]

45. Who?! Tur?! Who?!

I know who she is but that annoys the shit out of them....the blabbering heads that is....who?! Because their primary purpose is to admire their own bubble head on the Tee Vee, accomplish NOTHING of any real substance and get a big check for the lack of good sense and effort. In short, parasites. I think the American press needs a good deworming.
