WTF MSNBC? Just let Ari Melber start his new show already. Want ratings for the 6pm est hour or not?

They are making the guy plug the show they announced without a start date.
Holy fuck are they incompetent in the offices there.
You pulled Greta's show because your pick was a failure.
Yeah we wanted Joy but we like Ari too and you won't let his show get started.
WTF is wrong with you people??

If ratings mattered like they used to, we'd be seeing Rachel, Lawrence, Joy and Ari clones all over the TV news landscape... instead, a blind man can see what the corporate sponsors want on the airwaves of their bought and paid for propaganda machine.
