Following a harsh exchange between MSNBC host Joe Scarborough and Daily Kos founder Markos Moulitsas on Twitter in May, Moulitsas writes today that he has been banned (for now) from appearing on the network.
He publishes an email from MSNBC President Phil Griffin explaining the reasoning (a cheap shot), but Moulitsas concludes he has been booted from the network because of a Scarborough temper tantrum.
Moulitsas writes today on Daily Kos about the circumstances in a post Why I am blacklisted by MSNBC. In case you were wondering why you havent seen me on MSNBC recently, it seems that Joe Scarborough, he of the lowest rated morning show in cableland, has blackballed me, he writes. And Phil Griffin, the alleged president of MSNBC, is going along with it.

Post 15, meet post 16. And vice versa.
Kind of scary to think so. The guy who runs the whole shooting match over there at KOS comes across sounding like he’s in his teens. Maybe immaturity is ‘in’ on the Left?
drama queens
WMAL in DC took Chris Plante (who I really like) off the air at one point and put Joe Scarborough in his slot. I couldn’t stand him- I changed my lunch break time because of it.
It amazed me to read people on the net writing that they though of Scarborough as a Conservative.
Thankfully- WMAL realized the error of their ways and brought Plante back.
If they were truly gentlemen, they would have a duel.
The premise being false, the conclusion is obvious.
It's inextricably woven into the very fabric of Leftist thinking.
MSNBC’s only viewers are the Koz kids aren’t they?
OK. For BONUS POINTS:
Which industry, MEDIA or POLITICS, has had the most dead or sexually involved interns?
i have wondered why political commentary shows such as ABC’s This Week or all those cable shows would invite such uneducated liberal nutjobs like Kos or Arianna Huffington onto their panels. I mean, really, come on...who exactly are Kos and Arianna, and why the heck should ANYONE care what they think? What meaningful political experience do either one of them have that would make their opinions valuable? They run a blog. REALLY? REALLY???
A few weeks ago, the both of them were on This Week, taking the liberal wacko view against Liz Cheney and George Will. Needless to say, Liz and George could have taken sleeping pills and still had more brain power than those buffoons Arinna and Kos. They had absolutely nothing meaningful to say, and sounded like dolts. But they are liberals, so that is being redundant. Why do people keep inviting Arianna anyway? she is not even American, she is nuts, she is a total idiot, she tried to run for Governor of CA once and totally failed in a corrupt campaign.
What say you, liberal networks? How can you claim any credibility when you keep inviting such idiot lightweights to spew your liberal messages?
With real movie theatre butter.
Would that be Joe “dead girl in my office” Scarborough?
You know, that is so true. I just had a spirited exchange with a leftist who sent me two MediaMatters links to ‘prove’ that conservatives are racists. And this leftist admitted, when she sent the links, that some quotes were taken out of context. Now what mature person would consider that a valid much less persuasive argument?
Never fear. I pulled out all the stops [in my rebuttal] and gave a lot better than I got. ;)
The same one....
Comments like that will get him back on the show in no time.
Useful idiots = politically immature.
All 5 viewers must be really upset
