NBC News announced the class of nine journalists who will be deployed to cover 2024 presidential candidates and battleground states, tracking every movement of campaigns as the race unfolds.
The embeds, as they are called, serve as the eyes and ears on the ground for the NBCU news platforms, and are expected to do everything from research to shoot b-roll and live events, file digital stories and do on-air reporting.
This cycle’s class of embeds includes Emma Barnett, an associate producer for NBC News Now’s Hallie Jackson Now who previously worked on the Morning News Now team; Sarah Dean, producer for Meet the Press, where she has served as Chuck Todd’s anchor producer for the Sunday broadcast and produces guest interviews and writes the weekly Data Download segment; Nnamdi Egwuonwu, segment producer for MSNBC’s The Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell and previously Zerlina on Peacock; Jillian Frankel,...

Daytime's most high-profile vacancy might have finally been filled. While ABC is staying num about a potential addition to The View, with a network spokesperson telling E!, "We do not have a co-host announcement to make at this time. Stay tuned," Variety reported July 26 that former Donald Trump staffer Alyssa Farah Griffin is taking the open spot on the panel for the show's 26th season in the fall. The spot reserved for a conservative co-host has remained empty since Meghan McCain left The View in July 2021. In the time since, the seat has seen a rotating roster of guest hosts, including Griffin, Utah congresswoman Mia Love, Carly Fiorina, Condoleezza...

As previously announced, “The View” is celebrating 25 years of intractable morning arguments between friends by inviting back former co-hosts to sit at the table, and three heavy hitters have just been announced for February, TheWrap has confirmed.
Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Meredith Vieira will be returning to the show years after leaving. They’ll be joined by Star Jones, who has already shown up to guest this season starting last September. They will each co-host next month, with Jones’ appearance set for Feb. 4.
Jones and Vieira were two of the show’s original hosts, sticking with the show from its launch in 1997 until both exited after the 9th season in 2006. Hasselbeck joined the show in Season 7 in 2003, and stuck around until 2013. She’s one of two successful attempts at having a long-running conservative co-host for the show, the other being Megan McCain, who quit last year.

After Meghan McCain‘s departure from The View in August, a carousel of Republican guest hosts saw airtime on the ABC daytime talk show. As Carly Fiorina, Gretchen Carlson, and others took turns filling the slot, executive producer Brian Teta said that he was “taking a little time” to find a permanent replacement.
But with 2022 fast approaching, there still hasn’t been a decision. Part of the hold-up seems to be that the show is having a difficult time finding someone who isn’t a conspiracy nut but is also...

Whoopi Goldberg will remain with “The View” for at least four more years, TheWrap has learned.
The daytime series’ longtime host has signed a new four-year contract that will take her through its 28th season and the summer of 2025, according to an individual with knowledge of the deal. Financial details of the new contract are not known.
ABC declined to comment.
Goldberg just began her 15th season earlier this month. Her new contract comes as the ABC show has had numerous shuffles in front of the camera over the past few years. Meghan McCain was the most recent co-host to depart the show, which she did in August after four seasons. Sara Haines is in her second season after returning to “The View” last September to replace Abby Huntsman.
“The View” is currently filling McCain’s slot with a rotating cast of guest conservative co-hosts, which began with former Utah Congresswoman Mia Love.

The hosts of “The View” once again discussed Texas’ restrictive abortion law on Tuesday, reiterating their belief that it goes too far. But for conservative guest host Carly Fiorina, it’s not surprising at all; it’s just politics.
The panel of women returned to the topic in light of the first casualty of the law’s deputization of private citizens. Dr. Alan Braid, who publicly admitted he performed an abortion in defiance of the state’s ban, is being sued by two people — one in Arkansas and one in Illinois.
For the “View” hosts, the lawsuits are exactly what they feared, especially because they’re coming from two people who don’t even live in the state. The women marveled at the fact that the law is still standing, before former GOP presidential candidate Carly Fiorina — who is guest-hosting this week — gave them a bit of political insight.

In the final weekend of the California gubernatorial recall campaign, political ads are everywhere. The last push before the voting period ends on Sept. 14 has brought out Democrat A-listers to defend Gov. Gavin Newsom while some of the Republican challengers have turned to shock and outrage to stretch their limited dollars further.
The campaign to defend Gov. Gavin Newsom is spending millions of dollars on ads from a series of prominent Democrats — Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and, biggest of all, Barack Obama. The ads note that one of the key funders is Reed Hastings, the Netflix co-ceo who gave $3 million to the support the anti-recall effort. Mail-in ballots and drop-off ballots must be returned and polls will close at 8 p.m. on Tuesday.

The View is “taking a little time to fill the seat” left behind by Megan McCain and will instead welcome a line-up of conservative guest co-hosts in the coming months including Condoleezza Rice, Mia Love, Gretchen Carlson, and Alyssa Farah, among others.
McCain exited the longtime talk show in early August after serving on the panel since 2017. She noted at various points that her decision to leave the show was driven largely by her desire to spend more time with her new daughter Liberty and with her husband, conservative commentator Ben Domenech, in Washington, D.C.

“The Simpsons” is taking aim at Donald Trump’s presidency for the show’s 31st installment of its series of Halloween episodes.
Variety revealed the long-running cartoon’s latest political bit, from the upcoming episode “Treehouse of Horror Xxxi,” on Tuesday. The new scene shows Homer at a polling location, confident in all of his voting decisions sans the presidential vote. A mask-clad Lisa then barges into Homer’s voting booth to ask him if he has forgotten all of the happenings over the last four years. A list of many of the president’s controversial actions and remarks, ranging from calling Mexicans rapists to referring to Apple CEO Tim Cook as Tim Apple, flashes over the screen.

There’s nothing scarier than the 2020 election, which makes it the perfect opener for this year’s edition of “The Simpsons” Halloween-themed “Treehouse of Horror.”
Variety has an exclusive first look at the 31st installment, which opens on Election Day 2020. Marge calls Homer to remind him to vote, and he gets to the polling station just in time — where he seems decided in just about every position (including Amazon Alexa for Governor) except for the presidential race.
That’s when a flummoxed Lisa can’t believe that, after everything that has happened these past four years, her father is still undecided.

Donald Trump may have won a rare legal victory over Stormy Daniels yesterday as the latter’s defamation lawsuit against her alleged short-term lover was tossed out by a federal judge, but the bellicose President was the one looking like a “tiny” loser today.
In an unusual early week tweetstorm Tuesday, the former Celebrity Apprentice host stormily went limbo low attacking the porn star for her physical appearance and her other legal action against him:

She said “It’s the Marvel milkshake crew! #FabulousFlo.” The hashtag refers to Flo Steinberg, who had just died.
So, you know, a Friday after a long week, Heather and a group of her pals went out to remember a woman who was their friend and mentor. They didn’t go to a bar. They went for ice cream. They posted a photo on Twitter because that’s what the kids do these days. I don’t know what could be more wholesome.

What a difference a year makes.
When Donald Trump first announced his intention to run for president last July, the announcement was met with snickers. The billionaire businessman was then best known for his popular reality TV show, a feud with President Obama over the leader’s birth certificate and previous, unfulfilled promises to vie for the White House.
Yet, Trump faced off against nearly a dozen more-seasoned politicians, and, one-by-one, eliminated his Gop opposition to clinch the party’s nomination just over a year after his initial declaration of candidacy.

In her first speech on the 2016 campaign trail since the Republican National Convention, Melania Trump vowed to put an end to social media bullying among young people nationwide if she becomes first lady. But Anderson Cooper counters that the problem starts in her own home — with her husband, Donald Trump.
In an interview with Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway on Thursday, CNN’s Cooper pointed to the Gop nominee’s use of social media to “make fun of people’s looks, of people’s intelligence,” and asked Conway: “If it’s not okay for kids to do this, why is it okay for adults,...

The protective walls of the Gop are crumbling around Donald Trump in the wake of the leaked 2005 tape of him making lewd and predatory comments about women. In the rubble, even one of his most loyal surrogates, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, is sharply criticizing him and refusing, for now at least, to appear at his side.
Christie, who was a no-show at the second presidential debate on Sunday night, said Tuesday that Trump’s 2005 comments are “indefensible” and his apology should have been more “direct.”
“I was there when he found out about it and there’s no question...

Republicans are weighing in on the revelation that Donald Trump made vulgar statements about women in a caught-on-tape conversation the Gop presidential nominee had with former Access Hollywood anchor Billy Bush. Perhaps the harshest rebukes came from nationally syndicated talk-radio host Hugh Hewitt and Trump rival Carly Fiorina, who each called on Trump to quit the race. "For the benefit of the country, the party and his family, and for his own good, @realDonaldTrump should withdraw. More and worse oppo coming," Hewitt tweeted. Then Hewitt went on the MSNBC Am Joy show and told host Joy Reid

Jodie Seal, a former Miss Australia who competed in the 1996 international tournament alongside eventual winner Alicia Machado, said that Trump insulted the contestants' bodies as they prepped for competition.

Samantha Bee had singer Michelle Branch perform a special musical tribute to Ted Cruz in a “Full Frontal” web extra. Branch sang “Goodbye, Ted Cruz” over images of some of the most memorable gaffes from the Republican politician’s presidential campaign, like his awkward hand hold with Carly Fiorina, his love for Campbell’s Chunky soup, and comparisons made between him and the Zodiac Killer. The song also poked fun at Cruz’s appearance, as Branch melodically noted his “lizard face” at one point in the song. Branch also sang, “I wanna punch you and ignore you at the same...

Stephen Colbert doffed his powdered blue wig and eyebrows for an in memoriam edition of The Late Show's "Hungry for Power Games," bidding Ted Cruz and John Kasich the cattiest of farewells following Donald Trump's big win in Indiana Tuesday.
Colbert opened by remembering Kasich's campaign highlights, such as his win in Ohio — and nothing else. "Sadly, even in losing, tribute Kasich has lost," Colbert added, "because last night's big loser was Texas senator, and half-kissed frog prince, Ted Cruz."

In what should be the penultimate edition of one of my favorite Stephen Colbert bits, we bid farewell to Republican presidential nominee hopefuls Ted Cruz and John Kasich, the most recent fallen in the "Hungry for Power Games." Colbert's Julius Flickerman toasted eternally forgettable Kasich (District: Deli Meat), winner of only his home state in the primaries, and Cruz (District: Human?), whose accidental elbowing of his wife's face is going to follow him around for a long time. There was also a toast to Cruz's "vice-tribute," Carly Fiorina (District: Toner), who has now been a member of the "Hungry for Power Games" Fallen twice. Helping Colbert send his rivals off was Cartoon Donald Trump, dressing the part in a cartoon sequin blazer and cartoon pink wig. ...

Ted Cruz formally withdrew from the race. “We all need to unite and focus on defeating @HillaryClinton#NeverClinton.” Cruz had vowed to go all the way to the Republican convention in July, and even tapped former rival...

Remember that scene? ‘Dumb & Dumber’ when he says ‘Like 1 in 100, and she says ‘1 in a million’ and he says ‘So there’s a chance?'” The comment came during a discussion about the widely circulated video showing Carly Fiorina falling offstage at a Cruz rally, where the Gop candidate doesn’t make any.

Donald Trump thought it was “weird” that Ted Cruz didn’t help Carly Fiorina to her her feet after she accidentally fell off stage while introducing him at a rally over the weekend. “They just showed it to me, and I said, ‘Wow that’s really cruel,'” Trump said at a separate rally on Monday. “She fell off, she just went down. And she went down right in front of him and he was talking and he kept talking… That was a weird deal, man.” Fiorina’s fall at the Lafayette, Indiana campaign event went viral this week, as a video captured the whole.

Cruz's spokeswoman Catherine Frazier says Fiorina missed a step but was not injured in the fall, the Associated Press reports.

Apparently, the left- and right-wing internet thinks that Ted Cruz is history's greatest monster because his hypothetical running mate Carly Fiorina fell off the stage at a rally in Lafayette, Indiana on Sunday, and the Texas Senator cruelly and coldly "ignored" her plight. The viral video even has some conservatives questioning Ted Cruz's "values," because it turns out when people already don't like you, everything you do makes you Satan (or Lucifer, I guess).
