And not willing to give our friend Scott Dworkin a pass on this.
Talk about HYPE.
And O'Donnell had to cut his vacation short for this??
Phooey.
He'll probably have to ascend to heaven or get raptured or something if Trump is ever indicted or impeached or something.
Did I say I was disgusted? That too.

Dworkin may have just Mensched himself today.

(17,000 posts)An interview? That's what all the hype has been about is an effing interview Twitler gave!?!?! What the heck difference does it make what he says when he lies ALL THE TIME!!! Ari is calling Twitler canny!!! If this isn't normalizing Twitler I don't know what is.

(6,262 posts)NO interview with the Dump is worth air time.
He played NYT with a supposed exclusive without minders and got all the attention on narcissistic him, which he loves. Now commentators and anchors will go in circles trying to "analyze" each ludicrous statement. But it is worth zip, in that it is just a repetitive compilation of his nods and winks that he MIGHT fire Sessions or others.
It is not "news."
The headline is "Libs Burned AGAIN by Media Promising Bombshell,"

(1,474 posts)Bullshit. All of this hype for bullshit. Banner should read "Breaking News : Bullshit that means nothing"
Hoyt
(54,770 posts)was going to be fired over Christmas, not to mention just about every week since he was appointed.
Im hopeful this is not another Fitzmas, but . . . . . . .

(4,542 posts)I went back and read his Tweets on this. He said it's a "follow the money" thing that's BIG. That ain't this. What Lawrence is excited about may or may not be connected, and he hasn't been on air yet, but I think not. I think Dworkin's story hasn't broken yet.

(32,681 posts)Bates Motel, but periodically checking DU for the "major" news because I'm sick of the MSM right now. A part of me was really hoping trump would resign before 1/1/18. Wishful thinking, I guess.

(6,262 posts)And sucker that I am, now waiting for Lawrence to come on with Ari.

(4,542 posts)Dworkin and O'Donnell news not in the same universe.
This is OUR fault, not theirs, IMO.
We are so starved for something good that WE blew this out of proportion.

(15,278 posts)He's occassionally on MSNBC, but I can't recall him ever having much inside info.
RandomAccess
(5,210 posts)So yes, HIS fault.

(26,259 posts)This kind of stunt is just too draining.

(6,377 posts)But other than Rachel, MSNBC isnt a very good news source. They almost never break anything of substance, and do a lot of shallow reporting.
Siwsan
(26,259 posts)Rachel started to lose me with her long wind-ups to a story. I know some people like that, but it's not how I process information. I prefer elaboration on the actual story, not an extensive build up TO that story. I kind of backed off of watching her show but tuned in to Lawrence. Now I feel 'punked' by him. He had to know how that tweet would be interpreted.

(6,377 posts)Although I did fall for her I have Trumps tax returns bit from this spring.
Siwsan
(26,259 posts)I found myself mentally yelling at the tv "PLEASE GET TO THE POINT!!!!!!!!!!!!" too many times, after that.
