We just witnessed Howard Beale without the gun...

1. Yup.

[LisaM]

2. What did he say/do?

I'm at work, just keep getting all these hints.

[Dennis Donovan]

3. He opened his show, said it was his last, cut to commercial, came back with Kornacki in his place

8. Thank you so much for posting those clips. You rock!

I appreciate the trouble you took to get me up to speed.

[Dennis Donovan]

10. It was just so abrupt! "Welcome to Ha-Ba - I quit!"

[Kitchari]

11. Great video--thanks

I was not a fan, but I wish him well

[Maru Kitteh]

15. That was the most liveable, watchable I have ever seen Kornacki. Usually I

can't stand watching him because he's constantly amped all the way up to 11 about EVERYTHING and just too loud.

I'm sad the Chris Matthews didn't get a proper goodbye. He's given his whole life to this work. His knowledge was positively encyclopedic.

4. That was epic. I don't know what to think.

I had a soft spot for the old bugger but he was guilty of being too weird with women. And he’s been weird in general
Lately. But damn, that was something.

[Raine]

12. I feel the same

going to kind of miss him, always wondered what bizzaro thing he'd say next.

5. Good riddance. Now get rid of Todd

[Different Drummer]

6. Let's hope that's the next step.

7. Wow, talk about an exit....

.....

[lunatica]

9. Another oldster bites the dust

His mention of younger people makes me think whoever replaces him will be much younger.

Just please, please don’t make it Kornaki!

[Maru Kitteh]

16. No kidding. I can't take Kornacki.

[UTUSN]

13. Nah, as SNL said: *50* watched him. Us.

[ooky]

14. Always appreciated a creative quitting.

[cwydro]

17. Wonder what happened to that guy.

Thinking he didn’t get a good reference, but that had to feel good.

[ooky]

18. I'm sure he has inspired many.

I considered retiring that way.

[csziggy]

19. Check the description on Youtube

There is a very good explanation as to why he quit like this after a long struggle to form a union at the hotel.

He also added a comment:

This video is a document from a long struggle for workers' rights and a union. Before I quit, my co-workers and I spent years organizing together against management to better working conditions. They continued to fight after I left and won a contract. For my more recent work, follow me at https://www.twitter.com/joeyquits and https://instagram.com/laneve__ If you're tempted to leave transphobic and homophobic comments there you're deeply misunderstanding the meaning of this video. This video, like my more recent work, is all at the same intersection of politics and music.
