MSNBC Admits Failure: Dropping Al Sharpton, Other Libs And “Moving Away From Left-Wing TV”
By Robert Gehl, February 23, 2015.
MSNBC’s experiment with “going left” has been a colossal failure and now network executives are trying to right the ship – by throwing all the leftist hosts overboard.
First, it was Ronan Farrow and Joy Reid’s horrible shows. Next will likely be Chris Hayes and the Rev. Al Sharpton.
The MSNBC source told The Daily Beast, “Going left was a brilliant strategy while it lasted and made hundreds of millions of dollars for Comcast, but now it doesn’t work anymore…The goal is to move away from left-wing TV.”
The station likely will keep Rachel Maddow – a darling of the left – but she may be the only one remaining.
