@molly0xfff they probably just have some AI tool generate these ratings, right?
@molly0xfff just released the Director’s cut with 3 minutes of never before seen footage in a couple weeks
@Teri_Kanefield it’s common for jury selection to take a long time in high profile trials like this, no? I’m thinking of selection in Young Thug’s RICO trial in Georgia taking months and months. That’s probably an outlier, but still.
@Teri_Kanefield I apologize for not being clear, but I’m explicitly not talking about MSNBC. I’m talking about her participation in news reporting for NBC, which is what they initially reached out to her about, according to reports.
I only know Lawrence tribe from reading your posts, and indeed he sounds like he should have lost all credibility ages ago. But he’s a pundit on MSBNC, which is explicitly not what I’m talking about. I’m talking about news reporting at NBC.

@Teri_Kanefield @queenofnewyork indeed. I read and appreciated those pieces. My point, I think, is that setting aside all the MSNBC considerations she’s still an inappropriate hire for a news agency. She spent years knowingly advocating a lie for partisan gain, and didn’t choose to leave the job that required her to do so. It undermines the credibly of any call she makes for people to leave the MAGA echo chamber
@Teri_Kanefield @queenofnewyork I don’t watch any cable news, or even clips on the internet. I agree with your read on rage merchants and that every echo chamber has their own at this point. That said, I also know that Romney-McDaniel has been pushing election denialism for years and has only stopped now because she got pushed out of her position -- not due to any kind of personal epiphany. As a news consumer, why should I see her as a source of nuance?
@barney @Teri_Kanefield indeed, it doesn’t seem like it’s a surprise that the lower court decided this way, and the Supremes were already aware that any precedent set in this case would have nationwide implications and so they’d need to hear it. And there’s clearly a compelling public interest in having this decided. Why not just agree to hear the case directly? My assumption is institutionalists being biased towards doing things the “normal” way
@Teri_Kanefield @jab01701mid I think of Teri as a legal lethal eagle pretty much, so it works either way
@molly0xfff full of busybodies who are mad with power? Democratic in appearance, but in practice governed by a small group riven by opaque interpersonal conflicts?
