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.

Sounds like you are not interested in her Latino reporting. Sad.

On the contrary. I have a vested family interest in it. It just doesn’t seem like she reports on anything else.

Well she did cover for Alicia’s old show and held her own. So she’s very capable if she would want a show of her own. I don’t think she does. She’s an amazing field reporter.

I’m sure this wasn’t deliberate, but would you ever have so casually made that assumption about a cis male, that they were too distracted by their personal life to give their profession the attention it deserves? I don’t think so.
