George Will joins MSNBC Washington Post columnist George Will has joined MSNBC as a contributor. Will, a Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist, was most recently a contributor at Fox News, though he became a free agent in January when Fox declined to renew his contract. Before joining Fox in 2013, he spent three decades as a contributor with ABC. A conservative columnist, Will broke from the Republican Party in June over candidate Donald Trump's controversial comments about a judge with Mexican heritage, and Speaker of the House Paul Ryan's ultimate endorsement of Trump. Since January, Will has been an increasingly regular presence on MSNBC, with the contributor deal formalizing the relationship. Will joins two others who have recently become contributors to the network: former White House press secretary Josh Earnest and New York Times White House correspondent Glenn Thrush. “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | ||

I wish some of these guys would just retire and fade, fade away. _____________________________ "A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government."

In the end all these ":talking heads", be they conservative, or liberal, will always go where the "money" is. In other words their Phonies. | |||

It's Roller Derby. They are enemies during the match and friends out to dinner after the show. It's about earning a good living. ************* MAGA | |||

Yeah, a friend of mine put it well regarding partisanship in media when he said: 'Not many of them generally burn bridges because at the end of the day, they have to work somewhere.' | |||

GW probably tired of reading his thesaurus to his wife & needed something to do besides picking his nose on the porch. ______________________________________________ Life is short. It’s shorter with the wrong gun… | |||

A great addition to MSNBC's inside-the-beltway, big-government circle jerk. Set the controls for the heart of the Sun. | |||

 I met George Will once at the Cardinals winter warm up. He's a huge baseball fan. I used to think he was pretty sensible, but he went off the rails when he refused to accept that Republicans could nominate Trump. "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

I don't watch MSNBC so I don't give a damn who their talking heads are! | |||

They don't retire because it's easy work and they think they remain relevant. A production staff prepares topics and talking points. Someone else does make-up and wardrobe and you go on camera for a few minutes. Easy money. | |||

Yes, they know the topic ahead of time... and they know the talking points. But I don't think anyone would dispute the intelligence of either George Will or Charles Krauthammer. Easy work? Maybe. But it does take knowledge and intelligence to be any good. "Some things are apparent.
