I watched Hardball tonight and the very end of the show was very strange. At the 5:00 pm show Mel laced into Chrissy about his glee that our VP was caught in a contradiction regarding the Iraq war back in 1994. Chrissy of course started to brow beat Mel, as he usually does to a woman, and Mel laced into him. As the show ended, Chrissy did not look to be in a good mood and Mel's screen shot was cut. The other two guests were still on as Chrissy said goodbye.
On the 7:00 pm show Chrissy shot the ending to show him smiling and no guests on screen as he said goodbye. The phoney POS that he is did not want any heat about cutting Mel off (my opinion)

We noticed that too. It wasn’t really anything sinister on the part of Chris, but Melanie’s satellite time went out at exactly 6:00:00 PM Eastern. Chris’s show, for whatever reason, went just a few seconds past that and so the satellite cut out.
But I agree, his rant at the end was very immature.

It was weird - he was in a weird mood that I can't quite describe at the end. I think he was incensed that Melanie had the nerve to suggest he was playing political "gotcha" to try and nail Cheney and that in turn made Chris Matthews feel that Melanie was denigrating the sincerity of his views towards Cheney.
Matthews just seemed frustrated, irritated and flabbergasted - some combination of the three.
