It was no go for “Morning Joe.”

MSNBC faced a technical nightmare early Tuesday leaving viewers more baffled than usual while waiting nearly 15 minutes for its flagship breakfast show, “Morning Joe.”

Those tuning in at 6 a.m. were greeted with a shot of the Capitol building along with an extended play of The Who’s “Teenage Wasteland.”

Viewers were then met with a series of internal promotions and commercials played on a confusing loop until around 6:07 a.m.

Then, instead of the latest news, the station started playing a rerun of “Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell” without any messages explaining that it was a rerun.

My guess is that Joe and Mika had a knock down drag out right before air time.

I guess Banjo Joe’s tampon got lodged someplace it shouldn’t have been.

To be fair, they could have been playing Teenage Wasteland from the Who’s Next: Life House box set that was released a couple of months ago. It’s a demo version that Pete Townshend recorded of the song that would later become Baba O’Riley, and is actually quite good.

Gasp the low informed didn’t get their daily supply of misinformation.

The approved narratives were late getting there from the White House and the DNC

Seems like the best place to gather the 'brights' and such.
