Now that Scott Pelley has been fired by 60 Minutes and CBS News, MSNOW star Rachel Maddow wants him to join her network. Doesn’t this just confirm what most people thought about Pelley and his work?
Pelley should have been on the far left MSNOW all along. It’s the perfect place for him.
All of the people who are angry about Pelley’s firing are either Democrats or liberals who work in media. Doesn’t that kind of explain everything you need to know?

Rachel Maddow invites fired CBS correspondent Scott Pelley to join her network after ’60 Minutes’ exit
MS NOW host Rachel Maddow suggested former “60 Minutes” correspondent Scott Pelley join her network after he was fired from CBS News on Tuesday.
“There’s nobody who is more acutely attuned to the value of a free press than those who are trying to take it away,” Maddow said on an MS NOW panel. “And when the president baldly says, ‘I am going to use the power of the state in order to get the media that I want,’ and he lines up oligarchic friends in order to do that for him. Again, there’s no pretense. There’s no saying this is for any other reason.”
She added, “There’s nothing else going on at CBS News other than what we can see is happening at CBS News. And I don’t know where Scott Pelley will land. Frankly, I hope he lands right here.”…
“I hope he’s on TV tomorrow. And I hope that everybody in journalism and everybody who values a free press figures out ways to outmaneuver the people who are trying to take the free press from us. But it is a fully joined fight at this point. And there’s no, I just don’t think there’s any pretense that anything else was happening here,” Maddow said.

Did you notice how Maddow framed that? She says “people who are trying to take the free press from us.”
Who is “us” Rachel?
These people think the media belongs to them and that’s why they throw a fit if even one of them is no longer able to control the narrative.
