You Can't Shade A Sista!

It ain't over until the matter with Tiffany Cross is resolved.

Joy Reid, Yvette Nicole Brown, Melissa Harris-Perry, Leslie Jones, Jamele Hill, Lauren Lake, Laura Coates and notable Black journalists have shared thoughts on Tiffany Cross and her unceremonious cannon firing.

They show solidarity and restraint. 

Shortly after Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly launched their attacks on Cross, and the appearance on Charlamagne Tha Rapist's Comedy Central show, Cross was out.

Now a month later, the fire is still burning and Black women and regular watchers are saying sayonara to MSNBC.

Cross hired an attorney to protest her firing. The folks at MSNBC fear Rashida Jones.

Jones, who is an African American journalist turned president of the network got morale down. Multiple sources told us that as soon as Jones took over in 2021, months after Cross was hired, “she had meetings saying she wanted no snark, no name calling. She seemed particularly disturbed by anyone who said anything negative about Fox News,” the insider added.

Another insider at NBC confirmed Jones’ new direction, telling us, “like CNN, trying to go straight down the middle seems to be what the appetite is. The MSNBC identity is being taken away.”

Where Joe Scarborough and Nicolle Wallace got away with vulgarity and jabs at Fox personalities, Tiffany Cross is sacked.

I only use clips from MSNBC on YouTube. I don't watch MSNBC or listen to it on TuneIn or SiriusXM anymore because of it. I have faithfully watched The Cross Connection on Saturday. Now I just don't care anymore about the network and I hate to say this but...

I really enjoyed watching Rachel Maddow, Chris Hayes, Ari Melber, Nicolle Wallace, Joy Reid, Alex Wagner, Lawrence O'Donnell, Jonathan Capehart, Alex Witt, Symone Sanders, Rev. Al Sharpton, Jose Diaz-Balart, Stephanie Ruhle, Joe Scarborough, Mika Brzezinski, Willie Geist, Katy Tur, Ali Velshi, Ayman Mohyeldin, Yasmin Vossoughian, Alicia Menendez, Katie Phang, Jonathan Lemire and Chris Jensing.

I am not a fan of Hallie Jackson, Mehdi Hasan and Chuck Todd but I watch them. 

The firing has led to a silent boycott. I want the network to understand that democracy is under attack. Fox is leading the charge towards fascism and Republicans are more engaged through that and now Twitter.

Without strong Black voices like Tiffany Cross on, it's proving hard to ignore the noise.

The noise is loud and they're willing to kill for their beliefs. Tucker Carlson and the like will motivate their base to vote, kill, dismantle and destroy.

Cross will get her base to boycott and protest. I am down for it.
