I can’t even begin to pretend to care about the Donster kicking MSNOW (the artist formerly known as MSNBC) and CNN (aka ZNN) out of the White House. The anchor dollies at MSNOW can’t seem to shut the hell up about how their voices are being stifled and how the First Amendment is being threatened by the denial of access to the Donster’s daily raving’n’drooling press conferences consisting of demented propaganda babbling and not much else, and their inability to dutifully record said raving’n’drooling to parrot back at the addled masses… or, as it’s known in the USA, “journalism”.

Yeah, y’sure heard that right; the people who gave us Kuwaiti Incubator Babies, Iraqi WMDs, Iraqi Yellow Cake Uranium, the Uyghur Muslims and Russiagate – and have spent the last three years beating down public dissent against the Gaza genocide – are screaming and yelling about free speech ‘cos they can’t get a spot at the Donster’s White House media circle-jerk. You’ll pardon my giving sub-zero fucks about any of those kiss-asses.

Starring in order of appearance: Some Harvard Economics dweeb, author of “Some Crap You Bought To Read On The Plane”; some wild-ass up-all-night, Monster Energy-guzzling, stock-market playing Wall Street geek, author of “Some Crap You Bought To Read On The Plane”; and some shallow, glitzed-up ex-Chamber Of Commerce honcho who’s now the executive director of some big-ass retailers’ association, author of “Some Crap You Bought To Read On The Plane”.

Inspired by a lively, witty exchange between some pals on Bluesky a couple of weeks ago, riffing on business media pundit shartage.

(At this point, has there ever been a panelist or Guest Contributing Analyst on The Network Formerly Known As MSNBC who hasn’t been pushing a book on the air lately?)
