The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Because of course they'd cave to the rants from the "talent". Only former Obama people are allowed to work there!

Yes, here is a partial list of the former Obama people who work or have recently worked at NBC:

Megyn Kelly, given her own program on NBC, appeared on numerous NBC news programs, who came straight from FoxNews. I admit not remembering when she worked for Obama.

Nicole Wallace, ran the Press Office for George W. Bush, given her own daily program on MSNBC. I confess not remembering when she worked with Obama, either.

Shepard Smith, former Fox News anchor, ran a nightly news program on CNBC, made appearances on other NBC programs. Again, my memory is probably failing me, but I don’t remember his position in the Obama administration.

Marc Short, Republican advisor to multiple administrations, is a paid contributor to NBC and CNBC. I guess I have to repeat myself; just don’t remember the photo-ops with him and Obama.

I’m sure there’s a similarly long list of people from the Obama administration that Fox News has hired, but (forgive me) the memory fades. Perhaps you could provide a sampling?
