Alex Wagner Tonight

New York Times columnist and author of the not very subtly titled book The Uninhabitable Earth: Life After Warming, David Wallace-Wells, joined MSNBC’s Alex Wagner on her Friday show to react to some of Donald Trump’s cabinet selections.

If there was any media personality liable to say something mind-numbingly dumb after Israel killed Hamas leader and October 7 mastermind Yahya Sinwar on Friday, it was MSNBC’s Ayman Mohyeldin, and lo and behold, he delivered on Alex Wagner Tonight. According to Mohyeldin and the eponymous host, the fact that Sinwar’s death was a happy accident “raises questions” as to just what Israel…

As he filled in on Alex Wagner Tonight on Thursday, MSNBC host Ayman Mohyeldin allowed his anti-Israel guest to rant so that he took a full minute from his colleague Lawrence O'Donnell's show -- a fact that O'Donnell made sure to point out as he joined.

The first rule of fact-checking is to examine what the person you are fact-checking actually said, but MSNBC’s Ali Velshi broke this simple rule on Wednesday as he guest-hosted Alex Wagner Tonight and took GOP vice presidential nominee JD Vance out of context in order to rule him “entirely false” for condemning his Democratic counterpart, Tim Walz, for misrepresenting his military…

MSNBC’s Alex Wagner continued the media tradition of spreading fake news about what exactly Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker told a Catholic college during a recent commencement address.

MSNBC hosts Chris Hayes and Alex Wagner used their respective Wednesday editions of All In and Alex Wagner Tonight to attack those who called in the police to end the illegal encampments and occupations on college campuses by claiming it was they who were escalating tensions and to prove their point, they pointed to those schools that surrendered to the mob.

Alabama doesn’t want to teach its children that they are responsible for the sins of others in the past or that meritocracy is racist or sexist. For MSNBC’s Alex Wagner Tonight Wednesday guest host Ali Velshi, not only does this mean teaching the history of segregation just became more difficult, but those in favor of such a law might as well be George Wallace himself.

Much of the evening’s prime-time cable news content was centered around the Supreme Court’s decision to hear the Trump appeal on presidential immunity, after the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals said he had none. The tone has generally been one of tooth-gnashing and wailing over the timing of the hearing date, April 22nd. Among the left wing commentariat, writer and MSNBC guest Elie Mystal…

On MSNBC’s Alex Wagner Tonight, viewers were subjected to several painful minutes of self-indulgent whining over the purchase of The Baltimore Sun by David Smith, executive chairman of Sinclair Broadcasting Group. Media don’t especially appreciate losing control of an outlet.

While guest hosting Alex Wagner Tonight on Friday, MSNBC’s Ali Velshi teamed up with The 1619 Project’s Nikole Hannah-Jones to accuse former Harvard President Claudine Gay’s critics of not caring about anti-Semitism or plagiarism, but for opposing racial progress and black people in positions of power.

Why do Republicans care about the border? It is a simple question with a simple answer: it is a mess. But for MSNBC’s Ali Velshi, who had guest hosting duties for Wednesday’s Alex Wagner Tonight, it is because “they want to let fewer brown people in” and any measures to address the issue prove that “the cruelty is the point.”
