I hate what MSNBC did... but I won't block or protest. At the time it still remains our only sliver of liberal and authentic news. If we boycott them, the tyrants win and the next cuts will be even more brutal.... continuing to whitewash and water-down the station. I also haven't bailed from Twitter/X. If there is no one on there to fight back and comment, again... the crazy, delusional liars win. If we lose MSNBC we will continue to slide into what the tyrannous leaders want. Weak, spineless, skinny, follow-to-the cliff sheep. I refuse to be one of those. I will watch my favorite MSNBC shows and continue to support the hosts. I will point out on Twitter/X whenever someone is lying. I'm not as mobile at my age to get out and march as I did in my youth, so this is one of the few things I can do to fight back. I also make signs for my grandkids to carry and continue to bore them with stories on how I burned a bra, went to DC to rally for Roe vs Wade, and marched for MLK. I'm proud they will carry on the tradition of standing up for freedom and human rights.

Your kids and grands or greats WILL remember your words. Good for you! Thx for what you did in the 60's and 70's. Fellow Baby Boomer.

Yes. If viewership declines, they will use that as an excuse to go even farther. I did reduce how much I watched in the aftermath of the debacle election, and I know friends did also. We just felt like we couldn't take in such a catastrophe. But, we do still have to pay attention.
