Talking heads on MSNBC pointing out that Trump hires based on looks

[redstateblues]

As if they don't get hired for their looks. Odd that they don't see that. Brian Williams does not have a job because he's a great journalist.

1. At least they're pointing something

that he's doing..

2. ROFLOL Oh, that's a funny observation!

And completely true!

[MissB]

4. There was some purported leak earlier

that said John Bolton didn't get the Secretary of State job because of his mustache.

3. Yes, but appointing cabinet secretaries based on their looks

is way, way more ridiculous. Brian Williams may have his TV job because he's good-looking, but he doesn't have to manage huge government agencies or negotiate with foreign governments; he doesn't do much but read what's handed to him. Politics has been described as show business for ugly people; there's should be no expectation of physical pulchritude when the job requires a high degree of competence. But Trump is so shallow and stupid that he thinks of these jobs only in terms of show business (not that he's exactly George Clooney).

6. Somewhat true-but the talking heads should be hired for

Being unafraid to speak truth to power- didn't see a lot of that during the campaign. Katy Tur did one time. The media helped create Trump and then never challenged him on his lies until it was too late. Very few of them own the role they played with their creating false equivalences about everything. We need more talking heads with the courage of Keith Olbermann- or Joy Reid. The corporate media doesn't cotton to journalists like them.

5. Well,it is very

evident the so called MSM has not learned a damn thing in the last month about reporting or telling the public about News. Just plain gave up on the Media,still kissing the Ego Idiots Ring. Nothing more than Propaganda with blathering over paid so called Talent's.

7. So Trump hires based on looks.

That is a standard he would certainly fail.

8. I call Brian Williams "eyebrows." He doesn't report to us, he feels at us... with his eyebrows.
