In the closing minute of today's Way Too Early on MSNBC, guest host Thomas Roberts invited viewers to use the hashtag #WayTooRowdy to submit descriptions of the best party they'd ever attended.
The show proceeded to display a tweet from viewer N-Boyyy saying that "one time I had been to a party and there was this goat in the living room drinking beer from a bucket." Just one problem: MSNBC also displayed N-Boyyy's Twitter mini-bio, in which he described himself as "Just a kid living life and giving no f----s along the way." The f-bomb was unexpurgated on screen.

MSNBC displays a viewer f-bomb tweet for six seconds. Control room mistake, or MSNBC trying to be “edgy”? Ping to Today show list.
Serious question...with all the talk about Meet The Press' ratings decline, and with NBC News getting a new boss..any chance they dump Gregory...and who might take over?
The viewership of Way Too Early is definitely a select few! I don’t watch the show, but the last minute of it appears in my DVR recording of Morning Joe.
I don’t think Gregory would be moved out any time soon: it would be too much of an admission of failure by NBC. I have seen speculation that Jake Tapper would be a logical replacement, and if so that would definitely be an upgrade.
Only reason it might happen is that a new broom pretty much gets a free sweep at the start..it’s her chance now...
Are common cable stations like FNC and MSNBC allowed to use words like that f... ?
Its not on the air waves so does the FCC have any control?
