For those keeping score at home, that's 0.36 Scaramuccis she lasted there.

That's 0.09 Truss for our metric friends across the pond.

But what is it in lettuce??

How much longer did the head of lettuce last after Truss? Unfortunately, I'm missing that data and can't create the conversion formula without it.

I'm struggling to find that data point, unfortunately. I was really excited to finally get that conversion factor, but alas, it's not to be.

It's funny that the Mooch is such an anti-Trumper now.

4 days to stop the spread of the 'Ronavirus

I always found it amusing the name of the RNC chair was Rona..

LOL byeeeeee đź‘‹

But also do not support NBC. Show them that hiring these kinds of contributors will not be tolerated in the first place.

“Oh shoot, we want to emulate Nazis but we were going to keep it light”

Mother Fuckers want the Trump ratings and the crooked tax cuts. NBC has been trying to normalize Trump for years and years.

What's the difference between NBC and MSNBC? The news from MSNBC generally seems pretty reliable to me.

It’s complicated because of megacorp structuring. In short they’re different divisions of the same mega network which is ultimately owned by Comcast: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NBCUniversal

It’s also worth noting that my comment above isn’t really about the quality or journalistic integrity of reporting, but the leadership that decided to hire an individual like Ronna McDaniel in the first place.

Obligatory fuck Comcast

My wife and I had a Comcast monopoly in our area for many years. We can't say the word Comcast without following it with phrase "Rat Bastards". Their service was deplorable, expensive, and obligatory if you wanted Internet service in my area. The rat bastards abused that monopoly.

Then a municipal co-op built fiber near my house, and I've never been happier switching service in my life. Faster connection, less money, friendly local service.

Yeah, I was gonna leave something spicy like “Comcast, the shittiest company in the Milky Way” in my response, but I didn’t want to detract too much from answering the question asked.

They need a new Chairman. The weak sorry from Conde in a memo is not sufficient. For the head of a proper news organization, you need someone who has more respect for freedom of the press and doesn't sacrifice principles for greed and grift.

There is already nobody watching. That's probably why they did this to begin with.

Her name is almost Ronald McDonald

That has to be intentional. She’s not old enough, R McD was around when she was born.

She was born Ronna Romney. Whether or not she chose to marry a McD for the lols, I couldn't say.

So why the fuck did they hire that piece of shit in the first place. Shame on them!

Because her name is actually Rona Romney McDaniel.

Nepotism will get you anywhere. It just won't necessarily keep you there....

FOX News will be foaming at the mouth about free speech now. It's a catch 22 for NBC

FOX News will be foaming at the mouth about it being a Tuesday, or the month of March. The only catch 22 for NBC was having to pay $300,000 to not be on their air, and they made the right call.

It’s march already? Grumble grumble damn democrats!

If only they could have avoided this pathetic situation somehow.

Wow, sudden outbreaks of common sense are rare these days.

So did she get a golden parachute even though she wasn't past a standard probationary period?

it's called the corporate stupidity tax, and she's going to get paid what she contracted for

And NBC is still trash for even considering her or anyone like her. Was garbage, is garbage, and will always be garbage.
