“To be clear, we believe NBC News should seek out conservative Republican voices to provide balance in their election coverage, but it should be conservative Republicans, not a person who used her position of power to be an anti-democracy election denier,” Brzezinski said during Monday’s “Morning Joe.” “We hope NBC will reconsider its decision. It goes without saying that she will not be a guest on “Morning Joe” in her capacity as a paid contributor.”

Whatever. If they don't want Ronna McDaniel on their show, that's their call, and apparently one endorsed by MSNBC president Rashida Jones. Supposedly this is over McDaniel's support for election challenges in 2020 and the RNC's continued support for Trump's legal fees, but ... isn't that something that might make for a debate on TV?

Also: What is it about RNC chairs that causes them to sign on with NBC?
