While I am fine with MSNBC becoming MS NOW, independent of NBC News, it appears to me that NBC is bowing to pressure from DJT and his administration to become his media lapdog, like Fox News and OAN. It is already happening with CBS and I expect ABC will fall into line, as well. As for NBC News programs, Meet the Press has become just another forum for Trump to spread lies, unchallenged by journalistic integrity (Kristen Welker used to be one of my favorites, but Trump and his people just bully her into their will). Once he owns the media, there will be no stopping him.
You can not possibly be serious. Nothing about NBC or any of their sister companies are pro Trump. Nothing.
It is very sad what has become of the “4th Estate.” They used to be one of the main guardrails of our democracy. They were our eyes and ears holding politicians accountable. Now, most news outlets of all types have bent the knee and become shameless bootlickers.
