Pat Buchanan: MSNBC Hosts Thought ‘I Was Sort of a Strange Beast From Another Century’

By Jordan Chariton 

During a CSPAN interview that will air in full tonight at 8pmET, Pat Buchanan talks about his departure from MSNBC in 2012.

“I think they thought I was sort of a strange beast from another century,” Buchanan said about MSNBC hosts he’d routinely debate. The three-time presidential candidate pointed to his controversial book being the source of MSNBC’s decision to part ways with him. “Nobody seemed to have the same take on the book [Suicide of a Superpower] that MSNBC did,” Buchanan continued, adding, “I was supposed to go on the day the book was announced and I was told ‘you won’t be on this morning.'”
