I watch Blitzer instead. I like Steve but he's hyper and tires me out. lamp_shade May 2017 #13
I can't stand Blitzer's annoying monotone. WinkyDink May 2017 #17

Apparently, the head MSNBC bigwig that wants to turn the entire channel rightward, LOVES Kornacki. So, I doubt we'll be seeing him depart. (Apparently he likes bad ratings too, given his desire to hold onto Gretta and her ilk)

NBC News political analyst and former The View co-host Nicolle Wallace is expanding her role with the network as host of a new weekday program set to premiere in May.

The show, based in New York, will take over the 4-5 PM ET timeslot, replacing the 4 PM edition of MSNBC Live currently hosted by political correspondent Steve Kornacki. As host, Wallace will tackle the latest political developments and conduct newsmaker interviews, according to the network. MSNBC says Kornacki “will continue his presence in the hour, providing in-depth discussion and analysis.”

She's been preferable to Kornacki in my opinion - at least she has an open disdain for Trump - which makes her somewhat useful for the next few years being as she's a Republican who hate the TIC (Troll In Chief.)

I will watch one of the correspondent/hosts who took down MSNBC idol Chris Christie.

Yeah - Steve Kornacki did that.

administration was outstanding and at the time, I really enjoyed watching him. Since he's gotten his own time slot, I find him hyper and exhausting, its hard watching him. I think some of these relatively newbie hosts try too hard. They need to dial it back a notch or two. I find people like Ari Melber or Thomas Roberts much easier to listen to. Less frenzy and more substance.

I guess Hugh Hewitt and Nicole Wallace will be getting their own shows. I cannot imagine what they were thinking with Hewitt.

Don't usually watch mid day, but happened to be able to tune in today. What a fucking poser, tries to come across as a hipster and cool, while pushing the bs repuke talking points.

Hey Steve, you are a worthless fucking little shit without a core. AKA a Republican, fuck off asshole.

Ever watch Max Kellerman on ESPN. He's an unabashed leftie and smart.
