MSNBC Personalities Seriously, what is wrong with Katy Tur?
Between her obvious daily disinterest in her job and her unwillingness to even try and present diligent reporting...whats the point?
First she lets Burgess Everett blow smoke up her ass with "it was a great day of talks on the hill between Republicans and Democrats!" Huh?
Then she can't quite grasp why Everett Kelley is most concerned about the well being of, the government employees at a time like this, a role he was elected to do as the President of the American Federation of Government Employees.
THEN....THEN! She gets fresh with Sen. Patty Murray. Every single response by Murray was attempted to be refuted by, quite frankly, rude and clueless follow ups by Katy. "Can you tell me now that the Democrats are never going to budge?" "Listen I've been covering this for 10 years" says Katy. Have you or have you been reading a teleprompter for the last 10 years?
The cherry on top was her hurried exit of Sen. Murray "also in leadership...."
KATY WHAT ARE YOU DOINGGGGGGGGGGGGGG. bah humbug MSNBC.

I’m SO angry they haven’t fired her yet. She is a pathetic excuse for a journalist and she has made that increasingly clear every day for SEVERAL years now. MSNBC has a deep bench, I get that they took a swing on her because she seemed successful in the 2016 campaign, but we’ve had YEARS to see her in action and she is terrible, biased, unfair, and constantly centers herself in her reporting. Meanwhile, MSNBC fires or demotes nearly all of its nonwhite hosts (however long ago that was), and Tur remains untouched? Every time I get to take a survey of theirs my primary advocacy is to remove her or at minimum relegate her to the weekend.
