MSNBC experienced technical issues causing delays and distorted screens during its morning programs.
Viewers were greeted with ads, promos, and reruns instead of the scheduled content.
The problem affected “Morning Joe” and “Way Too Early with Jonathan Lemire.” (Trending: Here Are The Most Disturbing Ways Hunter Biden Spent His Millions)
To those looking for @WayTooEarly this morning – we are experiencing technical difficulties
Our apologies. Keep watching @MSNBC and we hope to have @WayTooEarly and @Morning_Joe back up soon pic.twitter.com/YrbkPCl64y

Co-host Mika Brzezinski apologized for the delay, and normal programming resumed after 6:11 a.m.
“Viewers tuning in at 6 a.m. were greeted with a shot of the Capitol building and The Who’s ‘Teenage Wasteland’ playing,” Mediaite wrote.
“This lasted for roughly a minute until internal promotions and commercials were aired on repeat until 6:07 — when a re-airing of Monday night’s ‘Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell’ suddenly popped up without explanation.”
“Thanks for bearing with us, everybody,” Brzezinski said.
The incident prompted social media apologies and explanations from the network.
Media outlets noted the rarity of such prolonged technical problems and described the situation as a bit of a disaster for MSNBC.
