MSNBC pulls 'Morning Joe' from air amid Trump assassination attempt
In the wake of the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump, MSNBC has made the decision to pull its popular morning show, "Morning Joe," from the airwaves on Monday. The network confirmed the decision after a CNN inquiry on Sunday evening.
The decision to preempt the influential and top-rated morning show comes as the Republican National Convention gets underway, and in the midst of a charged political moment. A person familiar with the matter told CNN that the decision was made to avoid a scenario in which one of the show's guests might make an inappropriate comment on live television that could be used to assail the program and network as a whole.
The move by MSNBC is certain to raise eyebrows, as the network has been a frequent target of criticism from Trump's allies in the past. Some of Trump's supporters have vehemently criticized the press and liberal media commentators for their hard-knuckled reporting, which has sounded the alarm on what four more years under the former president would look like.
In the wake of the attempt on Trump's life, some of the former president's supporters have blamed the press and liberal media commentators for their hard-knuckled reporting, which has sounded the alarm on what four more years under the former president would look like. MSNBC has been blasted by Trump's allies, putting the network in the spotlight.
The decision to pull "Morning Joe" from the airwaves is not the first time MSNBC has made such programming decisions in charged political moments. Last year, after Hamas executed its deadly October 7 attack on Israel, MSNBC quietly pulled three of its Muslim broadcasters from air. That move, which came after some pro-Israeli forces criticized the tone of the MSNBC’s coverage, left some staffers at the network feeling uncomfortable.
The move by MSNBC to leave one of its most recognizable programs on the sidelines amid a seismic politics-driven news cycle is certain to raise eyebrows. The network said the show will resume airing on Tuesday.
In the meantime, MSNBC will continue to air rolling breaking news coverage of the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump. The network said it will continue to cross simulcast between NBC News, NBC News NOW and 'MSNBC Reports,' so there is one news feed covering this developing situation.
