NBC News on Friday announced that it had hired Ronna McDaniel, the former Republican National Committee chair who has repeatedly attacked the network and its journalists, assailed the news media as “fake news” and promoted false claims around the 2020 vote, as an on-air commentator ahead of the 2024 presidential election.
This is 100% about ratings and business. This news article is free publicity for NBC to have this woman probably talk trash about the coming election and recruit ”moderate” Republican viewers.
This is 100% about corporate news not giving a shit about truth and democracy. Journalistic ethics are dead. The logical next step is to burn the Reichstag.
Honestly, this hiring decision could be charitably described as “indefensible”.

Not disagreeing, just sharpening the point.
