“I work so hard for the party across the country,” #JeaninePirro now the #USattorney for #DC, told #RonnaMcDaniel in the message, acc/to newly #unredacted #court documents made public Tues in filings by the voting technology company #Smartmatic, which in 2021 filed a $2.7B #defamation lawsuit against #Fox over its #2020election #lies. “I’m the Number 1 watched show on all news cable all weekend. I work so hard for the President & party.”

Former RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel, who was ousted by Donald Trump, writes in The Hill that Republicans are well behind in their efforts to get young voters.
Said McDaniel: “In an election that will be won on the margins, the failure of Republicans to engage these new young voters would amount to a missed opportunity. Already my kids have been inundated with Democratic mail and texts, and my son has even had Democratic organizers knock doors in his college apartment complex.”

#Peltz, who was 81 at the time & made his fortune via junk bonds & leveraged buyouts, had gathered some traditional high rollers, including the hedge-fund manager #JohnPaulson & the Las Vegas casino #tycoon #SteveWynn, as well as #RonnaMcDaniel, then the chair of the #RNC. He had also invited #ElonMusk.

Ex-#RNC Chair #RonnaMcDaniel misleads on #NBC’s ‘Meet the Press’ about #Montana #electionlaw

Mark Jacob responds to the whine of CNN's Fareed Zakaria that NBC's firing of Ronna McDaniel "cancels" Trump's supporters who actually believe his Big Lie about the 2020 election:
"What about the people who believe the moon landings were fake? Doubts have persisted for half a century."
Should they be given air time? If not – obviously not – then why Trump supporters believing nonsense?

Oh, it's not that Ronna is a treasonous liar, it's that NBC didn't teach her how to lie to their standards. Thanks, Reince!

We’re not done criticizing NBC. The network has another problem: retired generals and admirals who have a personal stake in what they comment on.

"After a firestorm of criticism from #Democrats, the “Meet the Press” host & guests, #MSNBC hosts & outside #journalists, #NBC executives dumped former #Republican National Committee chairwoman #RonnaMcDaniel as a contributor reportedly set to be paid $300,000 annually...
The incident reveals just how badly some major #media outlets have lost their way.
Maybe the ratings frenzy & “both-siderism” have warped management’s news judgment."

Will the media learn the right lesson from the Ronna McDaniel debacle?
Sadly, #MSNBC #management couched the decision to drop #Ronna #McDaniel in a blizzard of corporate speak.
(“No organization, particularly a newsroom, can succeed unless it is cohesive and aligned … It has become clear that this appointment undermines that goal.”)
Funny — the journalists who spoke up said McDaniel’s departure was required to
🔸preserve their journalistic mission and the network’s credibility,
🔸not out of any need for “alignment.”We can only hope that NBC and other news organizations take away something more than “don’t hire a MAGA mouthpiece”
A few ideas:
• Create a #mission #statement that affirms your goals are telling the #truth and defending #democracy, which protects the First Amendment — not fake balance. • #Stop #pretending four-times-indicted former president Donald Trump and his movement are presenting #alternative “#policies” as a normal party would. They are fighting for an alternate system: authoritarianism. • Politicians’ outright #lies must be identified, not just labeled as their “response” or “position.” • Instead of obsessing over #polls, devote extensive coverage to #analyzing the Heritage Foundation’s “#Project2025” and Trump’s #fascist #agenda. Feature #historians and political #scientists during news segments (not only on panels) to put Trump’s views and statements in context. • #Don’t excerpt a few words from a Trump rally or speech, dub it an “argument” and #ignore his mental short-circuits and #deteriorating #intellect.https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/03/29/newsletter-ronna-mcdaniel-media-alsobrooks/ #Media #RonnaMcDaniel #Debacle

@nbcnews would have known not to hire #RonnaMcDaniel if they had followed our guidelines -- "DON'T PLATFORM LIARS"
Of course, we would have hoped they wouldn't need us to tell them that was bad practice for a news org.

I imagine that NBC is going to bounce back from their embarrassing debacle over Ronna McDaniel and come up with a more palatable right-wing commentator. Who could it be? #ronnamcdaniel #nbc #nbcnews

Friday on my live webcast, "History Matters:"
A Make-Believe Middle Ground: Ronna & the RNC
(Thx @johnastoehr)The RNC asks if new hires believe the Big Lie.
NBC hires McDaniel, who fostered it.
As if there's some kind of safe way to accept it.But there's NO safe zone between democracy & autocracy.
Join us to see how history can--& can't--tell us more.

"But this bombshell has drawn a good deal of attention... "On Sunday, Budoff Brown reached out to McDaniel’s aide and former chief of staff at the R.N.C., Richard Walters, to see if there were any friends or colleagues who could speak up on her behalf.""
"...staffers inside NBC News are enraged at the fact an executive would have engaged in such behavior."
-
"That scandal involves these revelations from Puck's Dylan Byers, who reports, "bringing McDaniel to 30 Rock had been part of a nearly two-month-long effort that was spearheaded by Budoff Brown and her boss, NBC News President Rebecca Blumenstein, with buy-in from Conde and his deputies at both NBC News and MSNBC."
"Rashida Jones," he adds, "the president of MSNBC, was very interested in having McDaniel appear as a contributor on her network, as well."

The NBC Ronna McDaniel matter is not over, and nor should it be. As the details emerge, the rot and institutional disregard for the truth at NBC becomes more apparent.

"The Comcast boss is watching an unceasing five-alarm fire rage at 30 Rock, scarring the reputation of NBC News and threatening to consume multiple parts of the Cesar Conde-run NBC Universal News Group."

TV Talkers From Pat McAfee to Rachel Maddow Gain New License to Blast Bosses On-Air

"A party that baselessly denies the outcome of an election has no legitimate claim to be 'represented' in a news organization. Nor can anyone who has gone along with the lie, including the former head of the Republican National Committee, expect a job with a news organization.
The fact is, neither NBC nor any other legitimate news organization can find someone with integrity who can defend Trump…."
-
"The New York Times deadpanned that the embarrassing [Ronna McDaniel] episode underscores the challenge to news organizations 'of fairly representing … pro-Trump viewpoints in their coverage.'
Wrong. The real problem is there can’t be any 'fair' representation of pro-Trump Republican viewpoints as long as those viewpoints are centered on the big lie that the 2020 election was stolen from Trump."

NBC fired Ronna McDaniel. But TV news has a bigger pundit problem
by David Folkenflik"Why should TV networks pay politicians at all?"

"NBC — and most of the press — have yet to accept the reality that this is not a normal election between a Republican and a Democrat. Donald Trump and his enablers represent an extraordinary threat to democracy. This industry, which prizes objectivity above all else, is incapable of accurately covering an election where one candidate is a normal politician and the other is a dishonest, corrupt insurrectionist."
