IT BEGINS: Rachel Maddow's Massive Salary Slashed at MSNBC

It turns out the pay cuts have already started at MSNBC. Weeks before parent company Comcast announced it was spinning off the obnoxious liberal network into a separate entity, star anchor Rachel Maddow reportedly agreed to reduce her annual salary from $30 million to $25 million over the next three years. Some would argue Maddow is still grossly overpaid considering she only hosts her MSNBC show one night per week, but the substantial pay cut, first reported by the Ankler on Thursday, is almost certainly a sign of things to come for Maddow's increasingly deranged colleagues at MSNBC, who will soon be at the mercy of new management eager to "right-size" their ridiculous salaries.

Gravy Train Derails at MSNBC: Top Anchors Face Huge Pay Cut After Comcast Severs Ties With Left-Wing Network

Comcast is finally cutting ties with MSNBC, the media conglomerate announced Wednesday. That's bad news for the exorbitantly compensated and increasingly unhinged personalities who call the left-wing network home (for now). MSNBC and other declining television assets—but not the reality TV powerhouse Bravo—will be spun off into a new publicly traded company by the end of next year. That means MSNBC will soon be divorced from the ostensibly more serious and less overtly partisan NBC News, which routinely shares reportage, fact-checking (if you can call it that), and contributors with its sister network. Comcast brass on Wednesday told MSNBC staffers that  the network's name and peacock logo might not survive the breakup. The outrageously inflated salaries of the network's top anchors almost definitely won't.

What I Learned at the MSNBC 'Democracy' Festival

The line wraps around the block outside the Howard Gilman Opera House at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. We're here for the afternoon session of "MSNBC Live Democracy 2024." Everyone looks and talks like the sort of people who would pay hundreds of dollars to wait in line on a college football Saturday to watch Joy Reid and Alex Wagner giggle about potato chips.

Senate Democrat gives away the game, says the quiet part out loud about 'undocumented Americans' — and the 'failed' strategy



Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) stated on Wednesday that immigrants living in the United States illegally are the people Democrats "care about most."

Speaking with MSNBC host Chris Hayes about the failed border bill, Murphy admitted that the Democratic Party's "play" — which Hayes explained is to secure a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants — has "failed."

"That's been a failed play for 20 years. So you are right that that has been the Democratic strategy for 30 years, maybe, and it has failed to deliver for the people we care about most: the undocumented Americans that are in this country," Murphy said.

For his part, Murphy acknowledged that "the bulk of this country" agrees the status quo — millions of migrants entering the U.S. each year under President Joe Biden — is unsustainable.

"So I know there’s a temptation for Democrats ... to just run the same play we always run because we know how to run it. But when it hasn't worked, and when the country is actually demanding that we do something to make the border more manageable, I think we do have a right and a responsibility to adjust to that reality," he admitted.

"Now, this bill still had in it some very important things for migrant rights, including a right to representation and earlier work permits, and the biggest expansion of visas in 30 years," Murphy celebrated. "It's not a pathway to citizenship, but it is something substantial for people that actually care about migrants."

Meanwhile, the Senate Democrat revealed an interesting factoid about Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R): He "was in the room" during bill negotiations.

In a separate interview with NBC News, Murphy claimed that McConnell wrote the bill.

"He didn't just bless the deal. He wrote the deal," Murphy explained. "I have a ton of respect for his commitment to Ukraine. I genuinely enjoyed working with his team. They were in the room every single day. But it’s really worrying that a deal that was written and endorsed by the minority leader gets four votes from his caucus."

That detail, which hasn't been widely reported, is likely to intensify demands for McConnell to step down as leader of Senate Republicans because, in the eyes of Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and other Republicans, the bill was "designed to lose."
