Birthday Betrayal Live: Katy Tur and Jake Sherman’s Explosive On-Air Showdown

On-Air Feud Erupts as Katy Tur Accuses Jake Sherman of a Birthday Snub

On her MSNBC show, Katy Tur Reports, Katy Tur sparked a fiery confrontation with Punchbowl News’ Jake Sherman that left viewers buzzing. Toward the close of a segment, Tur surprised Sherman by accusing him, live on air, of neglecting to wish her a happy birthday on October 26. Tur remarked that she’d checked her messages before the show and was surprised to find no birthday greeting from Sherman, a detail she insisted she wouldn’t forget.

Sherman, clearly caught off guard, pushed back, claiming he’d indeed sent her a birthday text. But Tur was quick to dismiss his response, firing back with a skeptical, “Did you really?” Things escalated when Sherman, doubling down, offered to send her a screenshot as proof, which Tur met with an unimpressed smirk.

“She basically called him a liar on live TV,” one viewer commented, describing the scene as “awkward and uncomfortable to watch.” An insider at MSNBC hinted that this on-air fallout might impact Sherman’s future appearances, saying, “I’ll be shocked if we see Sherman on Tur’s show again, even if he brings the evidence.” Reportedly, Tur has now put anyone who missed her birthday on her “bad list,” and those who failed to remember are officially in her bad books. As the insider put it, “For Katy, who didn’t remember mattered more than who did.”
