Will Dumpy try to fire Rachel and Lawrence on MSNBC? My guess is yes and the network will tell

him to go pound sand.

1. The federal government...

...has no leverage over cable like they do over broadcast, so hard to see how they could really do anything.

The cable channels are driven purely by money - so long as Rachel and Lawrence are bringing in dollars for MSNBC/MS NOW, they'll be safe.

3. Ask Joy Reid about this.

I’m sure some ratings justification was made, but she made an awfully quick exit (just so we’re clear, MSNBC let her go) after the election. No doubt Trump and Company had a low hanging fruit list presented to Comcast.

4. unless they are wanting to merge

2. Your kidding, right?

Have we seen any corporate media stand up to Trump, or stand for free speech?

[viva la]

5. But if Trump tells them to fire a non-white person--

we'll have to see.

7. Rachel is openly gay, so Dumpy may want to get rid of her.

6. Ask Keith Olbermann

8. Both Rachel and Lawrence present FACTS and have the experts to back them up.

Their segments are presented in a manner to educate and make aware of the issues without resorting to name calling.

Rachel, Lawrence, Joy, Ari, Jen, Chris, the Weekend crew, and Stephanie are the ADULTS in the room. They get fired, we will truly know things are bad.

[OLDMDDEM]

9. That's my point. Are things starting to get bad or worse?

[ProudMNDemocrat]

10. Lawrence and Rachel have not been targeted by TACO Don in a defamation lawsuit.

Lawrence knows TACO Don watches his show.

We will have to see.
