5. I just want to know why she asked guests in two consecutive

segments about Cecelia Munoz. I understand she was in the Obama admin, but this is the first time I've heard her used as a bludgeon in Joe's campaign. I cancelled Fox News two years ago, so I don't know if they're the originators of this out-of-the-blue attack.

What's Alex's motive for putting this forward? That's what I'm asking.

... Not as hard working as Ali Velshi, of course... No human can be. But, I admire her for being available to pitch in at all hours to help MSNBC. I think she must sleep at 30 Rock.

However that said, I do find her interviewing style to be grating and off-putting... Just streams of consciousness lines of questioning.

I missed her interview with Munoz... What happened?

12. Some vague immigration issues during Obama's Administration.

It was such a nothingburger it hardly had my full attention until Alex brought it up again with her next guest.

After that, I began to question Alex's motives for bringing it up.

Witt should have delivered a more fair & honest report & named the other 8 on the committee.

Munoz actually isn't the problem certain players would like to make her out to be.


Must be a slow news Sunday to have dragged up this bs piece.

It has already been debunked. Munoz will do fine & will sit along side others of superior status.

They have assembled a group who will serve the Latino /immigrant families well.

Some saw an imaginary political wedge where none existed at all.
Pity that Witt even made it an item.
It's bs.
