Ari Melber

Journalism Professor Jason Johnson joined MSNBC’s Ari Melber on Thursday’s episode of The Beat to react to President-elect Donald Trump nominating former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi to head the Justice Department after former Rep. Matt Gaetz withdrew from the process amid a series of sex scandals. Johnson fretted that Bondi will be “worse than” Gaetz because “she knows what she…

On Monday's The Beat, MSNBC host Ari Melber gave a forum to liberal celebrities Rob Reiner and W. Kamau Bell to blame racism and sexism because Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris isn't way ahead of Donald Trump in the polls.

With MSNBC finally attending a party convention this cycle (they refused to do their show live from the Republican National Convention), host Ari Melber kicked off the fourth and final night of the Democratic National Convention by giving his hopeful requests for what Vice President Kamala Harris was going to address in her speech. He was apparently itching for her the attack the “…

Despite the graphic photographic evidence from different angles showing former President Trump was missing chunks of his right ear after being shot in the head during a failed assassination attempt over the weekend, MSNBC host Michael Steele wasted oxygen during the network’s coverage of Night Two of the Republican National Convention on Tuesday to spew debunked fringe conspiracy theories…

An utter lack of class was on full display on MSNBC Tuesday night as they were kicking off their coverage of Night Two of the Republican National Convention. In his opening monologue for The Beat, host Ari Melber suggested that former President Trump’s bandaged ear – injured after he was shot in the head during a failed assassination attempt – was “a prop” and “a spectacle” being “…

Since President Biden’s earth-shatteringly bad debate performance, along with a handful of weak subsequent performances, the journalists have been ping-ponging between desolation at Biden’s condition and feigned outrage that the White House somehow “hid” said condition from them for so long. Of course, these are the very same journalists who spent years denying that there was anything wrong…

It is not enough, at Trump-deranged MSNBC, that former President Donald Trump has been found guilty in the New York business records trial. MSNBC is now arguing for imprisonment for Trump. “Lock Him Up”, if you will.

As part of MSNBC’s never-ending Trump trial coverage, former CNN host Brian Stelter arrived on The Beat with Ari Melber to mock all the politicians and Fox News hosts showing up at the courtroom. He said Democrats won't show up to Hunter Biden's trial, or the Bob Menendez trial! But there's an obvious rejoinder: Will CNN or MSNBC show up to cover the Democrat trials? Or will they get…

It was only two weeks ago that MSNBC hosts were consumed with righteous outrage that a “liar” and “election denier” like Ronna McDaniel would be permitted to sully their “sacred airwaves.” This was not, they assured us, because of her politics, but…

Several of the hosts at MSNBC, pleased with having cowed leadership into terminating the contract of former RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel, took to the air and celebrated the ouster in an eye roll-inducing display of pious self-congratulation. The inmates rejoice, secure in the knowledge that they do, in fact, run the asylum.

MSNBC chief legal correspondent and host of The Beat, Ari Melber joined author and newsletter publisher Andrew Sullivan on the season premiere of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher on Friday where he struggled to defend his employer against Sullivan’s charge that the network is simply “propaganda all the time.”

Former chief media correspondent for CNN, Brian Stelter, joined MSNBC’s Ari Melber on Friday’s edition of The Beat to talk about his old employer, the media as a whole, and to proclaim that the industry’s job is to be “louder than the liars” who attack them.

On Wednesday night’s The Beat, MSNBC host Ari Melber shamelessly lied to his audience that the Supreme Court’s decision in 303 Creative LLC v Elenis permits businesses to discriminate against people on the basis of sexual orientation. In reality, the decision was a religious liberty case that upheld a Christian’s right to not express messages one doesn’t agree with. 

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough says that just like Jesus in the Elton John "Tower of Babel" song didn't help people in the Tower, Donald Trump won't help people violating the law while protesting his possible arrest in NYC.
