Psaki is out, giggle giggle..........
The maturity on display on a daily basis on here is truly staggering.
Because HE IS a loathsome individual. I know that tickles your sensitivities, but he just is.And this is coming from somebody who posted the following:
The tactic behind whataboutism has been around for a long time. Rhetoricians generally consider it to be a form of tu quoque, which means "you too" in Latin and involves charging your accuser with whatever it is you've just been accused of rather than refuting the truth of the accusation made against you. Tu quoque is considered to be a logical fallacy, because whether or not the original accuser is likewise guilty of an offense has no bearing on the truth value of the original accusation.
Whataboutism is an argumentative tactic where a person or group responds to an accusation or difficult question by deflection. Instead of addressing the point made, they counter it with “but what about X?”.

The problem with ratings cannot be laid at the feet of specific hosts/ commentators. It's deeper than that, if it's as broad as that. If you need to 'clean house' it's because you (the network) somehow dirtied it.
He's on YouTube etc going it alone like many others have been doing.Time to bring Keith Olbermann back?
I was just kidding. I couldn’t be bothered to look him up on YouTube.He's on YouTube etc going it alone like many others have been doing.
Many people don't realize it but we are witnessing a wholesale shift in the news media business and business model. Having blown their credibility to hell people are jumping ship and going it alone where they are free of editorial censorship and corporate agendas.I was just kidding. I couldn’t be bothered to look him up on YouTube.
But I will admit, his skewering of O’Reilly was often hilarious.

Whataboutism is a bullshit term that means don't hold me to the same standard I hold you to.Because HE IS a loathsome individual. I know that tickles your sensitivities, but he just is.
But what I didn't do, is go giggle giggle and act like a frat boy joyously celebrating Psaki's departure while at the same time enjoying her picture and feeling sorry for myself that I could never ever hope to be with a woman like that.
This story could have been posted using a news source, but instead the OP posted some rando on X making snide comments and other Righties getting their jollies and making equally snide remarks.
Nice attempt at a whataboutism though, it is the number 1 tactic Righties use.............

Haw haw hee hee, see that stupid woman, she got hers, high five guys, hee hee haw haw.
Every dog has its day. MSM has screwed the pooch for way, way too long. I’m finding it amusing how they’re all pointing fingers at each other for their doomsday comeuppance. At one time I enjoyed Chuck Todd’s take until I noticed he started turning more and more left in his reporting. The final tipping point for me was on his Meet the Press show as more and more criticism was being hurled at the press and he defended the press as being hard working, unbiased people. He sounded unconvincing and pathetic.Many people don't realize it but we are witnessing a wholesale shift in the news media business and business model.

Yes. Whataboutism often has another definition: precedent. As far as Psaki goes, hosting a show is obviously not a strength of hers. Perhaps it is also not a strength of left leaning networks to be able to evaluate talented people. Or it could just be that the messaging is more and more being rejected by viewers.Whataboutism is a bullshit term that means don't hold me to the same standard I hold you to.
They don't have a cult to easily manipulateMSNBC is hemorrhaging money bad.. it's parent company is cleaning house.and spinning off what it can salvage. CNN has been taking a beating too.
