No Speech?

This is a little weird. MSNBC was just showing Bill Clinton speaking in what seemed sort of like a concession speech in Independence, Missouri. A little earlier they read a concession statement from Hillary. But it's not clear to me that she's going to speak tonight.

Not sure whether the other nets showed the Bill speech or no. So it's not clear to me how much this was a conscious strategy on the part of the Clinton camp or whether MSNBC just took it upon themselves to televise Bill's speech.

Late Update: Earlier MSNBC had suggested they weren't clear that Hillary Clinton was going to speak. Not so. Apparently she's going to speak at about 9:30 PM Eastern.
