‘LYIN BRIAN’ WILLIAMS to head MSNBC ‘news’ after they GUTTED their lineup!

It was a bloody Friday yesterday when the MSNBC utterly gutted the afternoon news lineup. Alex Wagner cursed on air, and Ed Schultz didn’t even show up to his last show! And now we know who’s going to replace them – ‘Lyin’ Brian Williams, fresh from dodging RPG fire and nabbing parts of the helicopter that killed Osama Bin Laden!

From the L.A. Times:

Williams will be at the forefront of an effort to make the channel a destination when news happens in daytime. NBC News on-air correspondents, a less frequent presence on MSNBC in recent years as the channel added more politically progressive talking heads, will play a larger role again.

 

NBC News and MSNBC Chairman Andy Lack cleared a path for the strategic shift this week with the cancellation of three daytime programs: “The Cycle,” “Now With Alex Wagner” and “The Ed Show.”

The move opens up the daytime hours for continuing breaking news coverage, where Williams will be at the helm. MSNBC will be the platform for the former “NBC Nightly News” anchor’s reentry to TV news after he served a six-month suspension for false statements he made about his experience reporting on the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq.

The move is aimed at making MSNBC competitive in the ratings after it fell well behind CNN among the audience of 25- to 54-year-old viewers that advertisers want to reach with news programming. In July, CNN more than doubled MSNBC’s daytime audience of 48,000 viewers in the demographic and Fox News Channel more than tripled it.

Wow I can’t wait to see what fabrications Lyin’ Brian comes up with next! He tried to save Cecil the Lion from that dentist! He was on the Malaysian plane that went down!! He started “Black Lives Matter”!!
I hear all of MSNBC’s 10 viewers are terribly excited.
