It’s been a tough week for our brave firefighters, what with their efforts to derail Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination being in vain. So what’s next for them? Guy Benson’s got a pretty good idea:
To mourn the one week anniversary of Kavanaugh’s confirmation tomorrow, the NBC family of networks will briefly go dark. At 30 Rock, the iconic NBC chimes will solemnly sound 50 times — one for each aye vote — followed by Maddow reciting a secularized version of Amazing Grace.

Are you serious?

This is a joke, right?

Guy please tell me you are joking

We think he is. We think. But the best jokes are rooted in truth. And given the media’s behavior with regard to Brett Kavanaugh — and pretty much everything else — Benson’s tweet could totally come to pass.
I want to laugh because this looks like a joke, but I really can’t tell. So: if serious, not surprised. If parody, really too close to reality, so amusing.
