MSNBC denies it pulled Morning Joe off air Monday over Trump assassination attempt

MSNBC denied CNN’s reporting that Morning Joe was pulled in response to Trump’s assassination attempt after the network instead aired special report coverage via its streaming service, NBC News Now.

The normal show, which features several panelists, is routinely critical of the former president, but the show posted on X that it would return on Tuesday. The report from rival CNN alleged the network pulled the show Monday due to concerns about an inappropriate comment about the assassination attempt by one of the guests on the show.
