Right wing media POed because MSNBC didn't broadcast Charlie Kirk Medal of Free Dumb ceremony.

MSNBC received backlash on Tuesday for being the only major news network not to air the posthumous Medal of Freedom ceremony for Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated last month during an event at Utah Valley University.

While the majority of cable news networks opted to air the White House ceremony, MSNBC was a noticeable exception.

Not the kind of news they do.
Likewise, MSNBC, isn't in the business of nonsense propaganda for the crown.

I reserve assassinations political leaders, or clergy. But definitely not a podcaster.
