In a scathing opening monologue on Thursday evening, MSNBC’s host, Lawrence O’Donnell, called out the media, including the network that employs him, MSNBC, for airing The Felon Guy’s dumpster fire of a ‘bigly presser’ and not covering Kamala Harris’ rally. “It’s 2016 all over again!”
O’Donnell then complained that “to make a bad news coverage situation worse, none of the networks – none of them – carried Kamala Harris’ speech live after the Trump appearance. None of them.”
Taking aim at his own network, the MSNBC host said:
This network brought you the last few minutes of Kamala Harris’ speech live, but was actually doing Olympics coverage when the speech began and kept doing it. And so, as a first order of business in this hour tonight, we will correct that mistake by presenting to you in full, and unedited as if live, everything that Kamala Harris said today in her speech in Michigan, which all of the networks knew was coming, they knew what time it was coming, they knew how to cover it live, and they didn’t, after giving Donald Trump more than an hour of live coverage on all of their networks.
