VIDEO MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell interrupted a congresswoman to report Justin Bieber news
Although we may consider Justin Bieber a significant newsmaker, most people who tune into MSNBC disagree. Nonetheless, anchor Andrea Mitchell interrupted former Congresswoman Jane Harman mid-sentence with “breaking news” on Justin Bieber’s court appearance.
As for the context, MSNBC producers cut the former congresswoman off while she was talking about about an NSA-related task force. The network returned to Congresswoman Harman after the Bieber break, but she seemed perturbed.
The funny thing: Congresswoman Harman served California, so she should be somewhat used to celebrities making more news than politicians.
