Morning Joe: Any Viewer Not Realizing Post-Thanksgiving Show Taped a “Moron”

Pro marketing tip for Morning Joe: don’t deceive your viewers, and then call them “morons” when they complain about being duped.

When news stories were published revealing that the episode of Morning Joe aired this past Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, had been pre-taped, an MSNBC exec made a non-apology apology: “Would it have helped if there was a disclaimer? Maybe. But that’s not typically done.”

But on today’s show, Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski were not in any sort of apologetic mood. To the contrary, Scarborough said “you’d have to be extraordinarily thick” not to realize the show wasn’t live, and Mika repeatedly attacked any such viewer as a “moron.”

"...let a group of fill-in clowns host the Friday show..."


Agreed. That would have been yet another SIMPLE plan to cover the one vacation day.

If Joe was in the same room when Mika was having sex, there’d be 3 people in that room.

And Joe would be sitting in the corner watching and crying like a baby.

The disclaimer should be "This is the mainstream media - all of our news is FakeNews." There is nothing wrong with taping the show. It is deceptive and unethical to pre-tape the show and pretend it is live, complete with conversational banter as if it was live. The media disgust me.

Where does his innocent dead intern Lori Klausutis factor into this scenario? She has been forgotten.
