MSNBC reporter tried to corner Ted Cruz. What happened next will leave you grinning ear to ear
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Everyone knows media talking heads are out to catch people in a “gotcha” moment for their network’s ratings and personal credibility in the media ether.

But sometimes it goes all wrong.

And one MSNBC reporter tried to corner Ted Cruz. What happened next will leave you grinning ear to ear.

Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) is not a no-name, journeyman Congressmember.

He’s carved a name for himself in the GOP as a solid defender of conservative America.

So if you want to come after him, you’ll want to have your facts straight.

That’s exactly what MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell did not do.

Recently, Andrea Mitchell took to Twitter to try to correct Senator Cruz for attributing the phrase “full of sound and fury” to William Shakespeare, rather than the American southern literature author William Faulkner who wrote the book, “The Sound and the Fury.”

.@SenTedCruz says #ImpeachmentTrial is like Shakespeare full of sound and fury signifying nothing. No, that’s Faulkner

— Andrea Mitchell (@mitchellreports) February 10, 2021

But her only problem is that Faulkner got the title for his book from Shakespeare’s “Macbeth.”

And Ted Cruz clapped back in the most Ted Cruz way, quoting the line in “Macbeth” he was referencing.

Methinks she doth protest too much.

One would think NBC would know the Bard. Andrea, take a look at Macbeth act 5, scene 5:

“[Life] struts & frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound & fury,
Signifying nothing.” pic.twitter.com/3GbvoLSJTh

— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) February 11, 2021

Of course, Andrea Mitchell had to try and defend herself, rather than just accept the sword she fell on and move on.

No, she had to remind everyone that she’s “read too much American literature” and not enough “Macbeth.”

This is yet another example of how the media talking heads are only out to get their moment of fame and catch victims in a “gotcha” moment.

But sometimes it blows up in their faces – and it’s sweet, sweet irony.
