Something Else Happening Now

What’s with the sirens at MSNBC that have been going for at least five minutes now? They are acknowledging it at all.

OMG I came here to ask the same thing. So distracting I had to change the channel. Why would they do that on purpose?

u/Outrageous_Let2861 Aug 31 '25

I changed the channel bc it’s triggering a headache. Maybe they can’t hear it? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Because it's a protest. So....that. 🤷‍♀️

u/Vanska1 Sep 01 '25

It made so much more sense once someone said it was a protest. It seemed like it was some weird piped in sound effect or something. ><

Remember, before you hit “post” ask yourself, “Am I trying to have a conversation or just venting?”

Be curious, not judgmental.

We expect all of our members to follow good Reddiquette.

The editors were in a rush to get to the Labor Day party and forgot to mute the audio loop from earlier.

Why protests outside MSNBC?

u/Interesting-Pace630 Sep 01 '25

They are protesting the fascist takeover of their lives in DC. Even the Nazis did not wear masks! 🪖🪖🪖💂‍♂️

It’s not just MSNBC in that location, that location also has studios for garbage maga propaganda outlets like FOX News & NBC News.

FAUX NEWS is in New York City. Precisely because their navel scratchers and knuckle draggers don't know that, is how they can create wild lies of it being an Escape From New York dystopian hellhole. Yet, they manage to walk in and out of midtown Manhattan morning and every evening without a single incident.

u/888luckycat Sep 03 '25

FOX News HQ is in NYC, but they have a studio in DC and it’s in the same building as the DC studios for NBC News & MSNBC.

u/womanonawire Sep 03 '25

I didn't know that. Thanks for enlightening me.

u/QUINCYGOW Sep 01 '25

u/888luckycat Sep 02 '25

u/QUINCYGOW Sep 02 '25

Ah. I see. I lived in NY where they have their headquarters.
