Gotta catapult the propaganda
Mr. Maddox will bray endless rants about the “convicted felon” to pole dance hard for her $25 Millions.
Rachel Maddow is returning to MSNBC in full force with “The Rachel Maddow Show” coming back for five nights per week during the first 100 days of Donald Trump’s second term in the White House.
Since 2022, Maddow’s show has aired only on Mondays at 9 p.m. ET, with “Alex Wagner Tonight” filling the time slot on the other days. Now, Wagner will travel the country reporting for “Trumpland: The First 100 Days” segments, which air through April 30, covering the impacts of Trump’s early policies and promises on the electorate. Maddow and Wagner will return to their normal schedules on May 1.
Maddow will lead MSNBC’s live coverage of the presidential inauguration on Jan. 20 beginning at 10 a.m. ET. She will be joined by Wagner, Nicolle Wallace, Joy Reid, Ari Melber, Chris Hayes, Lawrence O’Donnell, Stephanie Ruhle and Jen Psaki.
“In the first Trump term, one of the things that we learned was this idea of watching what they do, not what they say. Trump is a real master of shifting the news cycle toward himself and away from himself as best suits his purposes, simply by saying really transgressive and shocking things all the time. And that’s almost impossible not to cover. And you do have to cover it to a certain extent, particularly when the person saying these things is the president of the United States,” Maddow told USA Today. “But you can’t ever lose sight of what that chaos is concealing, that the actions of the president, the actions of the administration are often much more consequential than whatever crazy thing he’s recently said that’s driven everybody in the news cycle to go write a million similar stories about it. So that watch what they do, not what they say, thing, I’m really trying to operationalize that.”
She added that we’re already seeing “the freneticism of the Trump news cycle taking over” during the transition.
“We’re seeing the unpredictable cadence of the way news breaks as opposed to a more competent rational administration,” she said. “So we’ll see; we’re trying to be ready for anything, and that’s part of why we’re making this change for the first 100 days.”
