We’d say this is unreal but knowing the media and especially MSNBC? This is all too real.
Pretty bad, even for MSNBC.
Megyn Kelly called MSNBC out like nobody’s business:
This is crazy. He helped Biden draft his speech on Sat night, without disclosing that fact to the audience (or anyone?), then reacted to the speech live on the air as a paid MSNBC contributor. Let me guess- he liked it? https://t.co/XnZqprPUef

Yeah, we’re pretty sure Jon Meacham liked the speech he wrote for Biden.
From Fox News:
Presidential historian Jon Meacham was reportedly let go as an MSNBC contributor after he apparently failed to disclose to the network that he was a speechwriter for President-elect Joe Biden, including the victory speech he gave on Saturday night.
Sources told The New York Times that Meacham had been “playing a larger role than was previously known” behind the scenes, “both writing drafts of speeches and offering edits on many of Mr. Biden’s big addresses, including one he gave at Gettysburg last month and his acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention.”
Biden campaign press secretary TJ Ducklo told the Times, “President-elect Joe Biden wrote the speech he delivered to the American people on Saturday night” but that “given the significance of the speech, he consulted a number of important, and diverse, voices as part of his writing process, as he often does.”
They want us to believe they’re NOT the propaganda arm of the Democratic Party? Alrighty then.
But hey, MSNBC did fire him, right?
*eye roll*
Everything they do is a charade.

Why did MSNBC fire Meachem? It's not like we didn't already know their on-air talent are all DNC operatives.

By crazy, she means totally on brand for MSNBC.

NARRATOR: He did.

As we said above, we wish would could say this is unreal but clearly … it’s all too real.
