This one’s a bit unusual, because there’s no link to an opinion piece, or video from an MSNBC panel. No, it’s just a tweet straight from MSNBC’s Twitter account, so we’re assuming it speaks for the entire network — and it certainly doesn’t leave any mystery as to whether MSNBC is biased toward progressives.

Source? Or did one of your social media people accidentally use this handle instead of her personal one?

Let me guess, it's a Saturday and the B-team is handling social media today.

The total lack of self-awareness here is astounding

Thank you "news organization"

"Preferred demographic" meaning??
— Keithius Prime 🌍 (@Keithiusss) January 29, 2022
Seriously? Who makes up conservatives’ “preferred demographic”?
Wow. So much for neutrality in journalism. Did someone forget to log out before opining? My preferred demographic with respect to hiring folks is that the most qualified person for the job gets hired.

Is there an article attached or what?
— Crash Overide (@brianwineguy) January 29, 2022
Nope. There isn’t a link to anything.
Interesting this made MSNBCs verified account, which sadly says something about the media outlet.

@stephenfhayes Exactly how is this better than FOX?

This is “principled conservative” Stephen Hayes’ new employer.
Not even trying to be news anymore
— WiZecraX (@wizecrax) January 29, 2022
If the demographic is "most qualified for the job" and "most likely to be a good fit in the organization" then sure.

Clarence Thomas didn't need affirmative action and conservatives *love* him.
— Kyle Becker (@kylenabecker) January 29, 2022
Yeah this shouldn’t be on the MSNBC account. And I believe conservatives want people to be hired based on merit ( or at least they used to believe that)
— Political Oasis (@politicaloasis) January 29, 2022
We do. Color, gender, those are things we don't think should be taken into consideration, especially when we're talking about SCOTUS. Merit is what matters, and this decision basically says black women need help to get onto the court.
— Karen Mann (@TheKarenMann) January 29, 2022
This is one of the dumbest takes I've seen in a while. Keep them coming. By the way, it's nice to see a "news" network's social media account openly editorializing on Twitter. Very credible and trustworthy stuff.

Lay off the bottomless mimosa brunch, MSNBC…

Who is running this account?
— Dan Stringer, SEC Pimp (@Danstringer74) January 29, 2022
Stephen Hayes
— Brandon (@BS_355) January 29, 2022
Is this a company statement? Interesting opinion.
— Noyb (@Noyb2021) January 29, 2022
10 bucks says this gets deleted when the person who wrote it realizes they used the wrong account.

The hatred runs deep at the MSNBC. Prayers. 🙏🏿

Props for not even TRYING to hide the crazy anymore @MSNBC.

Has @NBCNews seen this tweet yet?
— PoliticalPopcornNews 🌐 (@PPN_News) January 29, 2022
Don't let your bigoted interns write your tweets.
— nobodyimportant (he/ho) (@nosoloco) January 29, 2022
I mean… I get you hate conservatives, but a little context would be nice.

Here it is in case they decide to delete it:
