Flynn resigned at 11 pm, so it hadn't happened yet. I missed her first half hour. then turned it on for the rerun at midnight but Brian Williams was still covering the Flynn resignation. So MSNBC and CNN are covering it now, just checked FOX, they are soldiering on with Tucker Carlson's earlier broadcast.

5. I know, right? Drumf prob timed it for after prime time

I think drumf purposely waited til the prime time people were off the air...it was announced at, what, 11pm EST? I'm in California so it was 8pm my time when the 11th Hour came on and they had the info right away. I really think drumf and them purposely waited til half the country was already in bed and the prime time anchors were off the air.


Chris Matthews called into 11th Hour, Andrea Mitchell was actually on the air for a little bit. I could have sworn Williams said that Rachel Maddow was about to be on the phone but I never heard her come on?

Drumf and his people probably wanted overnight to get their stories straight before facing the cameras...cuz they sure as hell didn't do that today since Conway said all was good and minutes later Spicer hinted at otherwise.
