Scarborough Calls Harwood 'Embarrassing,' Predicts 'I'll Get in Trouble' for Criticism
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 10/29/2015 5:39:08 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Tuning into Morning Joe today, the question on this NewsBusters' mind was whether, given that MNSBC and CNBC are corporate cousins, Joe Scarborough would have the guts to go after John Harwood. He did.

In at least three segments this morning, Scarborough criticized Harwood for what he called his "embarrassing" performance as moderator of the GOP debate last night. Scarborough's repeated criticism on Harwood's blatant anti-GOP bias led Joe at one point to ruefully observe "I'm sure I'll get in trouble for saying this."

Scarborough goes after Harwood, calls him “embarrassing,” predicts he’ll get into trouble for his criticism.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

Yes, honesty isn’t something that will endear you to the folks you work for Joe.

Harwood is a known leftist hack. Rinse Prius is to blame and needs to give up his debate plan immediately.

Every election cycle, the GOP agrees to debates on hyper partisan networks. After the debates, they complain, then reschedule in the next cycle. They are flaming idiots who deserve to loose because of their sheer stupidity.

A rigged debate is a rigged election.

They are all Rather-biased.

Notice that Obama rejected the notion of a Fox debate in 2008.

Even though NewsCorp execs endorsed Kerry in 2004.

I missed the debate, but caught some of the chatter afterwards. I scarcely hear Trump’s name mentioned, and Cruz’s only a bit more. I guess thats not surprising - it was Fox.

But Jeb did get panned universally, while they were all raving about Rubio. My sense is he bought himself another chance to be the GOPe’s great white hope.

Those moderators and “journalists” were about as neutral as sulfuric acid dredged from the depths of hell. They are a bunch of Obama acolytes. Imagine them asking Hillary how her closeted homosexuality will effect her judgments or if Sanders stays in touch with the communist thugs he embraced as a young man. Will never happen.

Joe may have been the only NBC guy calling Harwood out, but all the other networks, especially Fox blasted Harwood and his fellow moderators.

I agree! Trump didn't commit any gaffes, but for the most part, he was somewhat passive - especially for him.

I loved the way Cruz unloaded on those leftist b@stards! I have to give Christie credit too for making Harwood STFU.

The media, especially Fox News, has declared Rubio the winner and has set him up as their candidate of choice for at least this week. Rubio is receiving adulations across the board this morning based on what? Not much, as I see it...

What else is there? Please don’t say Fox.

To me, a toss-up. However, Trump's "gun free zone" rant was epic! And, Trump saying he's a concealed carry holder and then kinda reaches to his right side, saying sometimes on do and sometimes I don't carry. Epic, I tell ya!
