Alex Wagner

NPR morning anchor Steve Inskeep appeared on MSNBC's Alex Wagner Tonight and infuriated leftist Joan Walsh for suggesting the Democrats were acting in their own interests (and not on principle!) in voting to dump Speaker Kevin McCarthy. Another leftist said he won't listen to NPR, or "Nice Polite Republicans," because of Inskeep.

MSNBC presidential historian Michael Beschloss joined Thursday’s Alex Wagner Tonight to recap what the chyron described as President Biden’s “fourth address on saving democracy” and the previous night’s GOP debate. Naturally, Beschloss thought Biden was comparable to Abraham Lincoln and Franklin Roosevelt preparing the nation for World War II while lamenting Republicans were talking…

If the Southern Poverty Law Center says so, it must be true or at least that’s what MSNBC’s Alex Wagner tried to argue on her Wednesday show as she attacked the group Moms for Liberty and various Republican presidential candidates for seeking to win their support.

As part of the network’s never-ending quest to one up itself when it comes to absurd takes about education in the state of Florida, MSNBC’s Tuesday edition of Alex Wagner Reports ran a sob story on Catherine “Libby” Harrity, a former New College student who was kicked out of the school for spitting on conservative board of trustees member Christopher Rufo.

Journalists’ efforts to sanitize President Biden’s scandals extend beyond what they do or don’t cover. Take, for example, the media’s use of the term “bombshell” to describe political scandals. Journalists almost never use this descriptor in reference to scandals which are politically damaging to Democrats. Meanwhile, they apply the term liberally when discussing Republicans.

Just minutes into MSNBC’s post-GOP debate analysis late Wednesday night co-hosts Rachel Maddow, Nicolle Wallace, and Alex Wagner declared Florida governor and Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis one of the night’s losers. 

Fox News Channel has long been the cable news king that blows MSNBC and CNN out of the water in terms of ratings most hours of the day. And when a TV news outlet hosts a major political event like the Republican primary debate on Wednesday night, they’re set to rake in millions of more views than they normally do. With that as the backdrop, MSNBC’s Alex Wagner ended the Tuesday night edition…

Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and believer that everyone who disagrees with him is a racist Wesley Lowery took his American Whitelash book tour to MSNBC’s Alex Wagner Tonight on Tuesday to promote the idea that the founding of the country set up a “racialized caste system.”

“Thieves! Fire! Murder!” This exclamation uttered by Radagast the Brown in the movie The Hobbit was not too far off from MSNBC’s Alex Wagner’s characterization of the GOP House Freedom Caucus members who opposed the McCarthy-Biden debt ceiling deal on her eponymous show on Tuesday night.

Responding to Justice Sam Alito’s Wall Street Journal interview, MSNBC’s Alex Wagner spent her Friday show mocking the headline that referenced assassination threats the Court has received, twisted Alito’s words, and ended up confirming his point as she hyped a bunch of recent non-scandals in an attempt to delegitimize the Court.

New York Times columnist Margaret Sullivan laughably proclaimed on March 10 that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis “is just getting started with his rightwing agenda. That should worry us all, yet the media mostly fawns over him.” Sullivan added: “DeSantis enjoys glowing treatment from the mainstream press.” The claim is ridiculous on its face. The following are just some of the most…

On Wednesday, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis gave a speech where he separated fact from fiction on his education policies and MSNBC’s Alex Wagner responded with some of the very fake news he meant to debunk. For added effect, she also labeled his policies “fascist.”

MSNBC has officially run out of original thoughts. On Thursday’s Alex Wagner Tonight, the eponymous host and Columbia Journalism School Dean Jelani Cobb came together to agree with Critical Race Theorist Kimberlé Crenshaw that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is a fascist.

In the immediate aftermath of President Joe Biden’s bitterly partisan and divisive State of the Union address, MSNBC host Alex Wagner went after House Speaker Kevin McCarthy for not showing enough allegiance to the left’s latest obsessions like the war in Ukraine and “democracy” at home and abroad.
