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.

That has got to be bad! Ha Ha!
Shooting or Shouting, either one will work. I have a feeling most of his 'posters' are in their teens, physically, or mentally.
Isn't KOS a blog and not a discussion forum?
That's what I like about FR. Jim Robinson doesn't decide WHAT everyone else should discuss. We do.
Maybe immaturity is in on the Left?
I heard that once you grow up and mature, you turn to the Right.
What was that saying.....
"With age comes wisdom. But not always, and not for everyone."
We need more cats on the job.
Being banned from MSNBC is equivalent to being banned from eating rubarb.
Well that was the gist of one of Churchill’s famous quotes, wasn’t it? It’s not so bad to start out liberal, but if by a certain age you haven’t outgrown it, you have problems.
He accused Joe of killing the pretty intern that was found dead in his campaign office on a Saturday morning.
How can you cheap shot Joe? I mean-really!
You can’t blackball me! I’m big, rich important member of the American left!
/sarc
Kicked off MSNBC for being too obnoxious. Wow.....

Nice catch! Odds are close to a hundred percent of Kossacks are good shouters. I bet barely one percent are good shooters/marksmen. That’s one thing I like about FR; we have the guns. ;)
As to the rest, KOS has discussion forums, but if you can believe it, the bile and sludge are even worse than on DU. I still, once in a blue moon, drop in on DU to find out what’s animating the Moon Bats. I can’t go to KOS because there is just too much concentrated insanity and rage in too small a space. Really ghastly stuff!
If you’re not a liberal at twenty you have no heart, if you’re not a conservative at forty you have no brain.
Why doesn’t the author tell us what the Kos guy said? He talks around it, but never gets to the point.
The Modern Day Certified Snot Faced Liberals are at it again.
That’s it—the exact one I was thinking of. Thanks!
MSNBC Morning Joe has hissy fit with Daily Kos?
ZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
I listened to the bastard a couple of times and started forming my own opinions before I figured out who he was.
He seemed, shallow, RINOstic, defensive. Then I thought he just plain sucked.
I love to watch rats eat their own on hot summer days.... Better than Gin n tonics, better than Popsicles, it’s even better than low fat sorbet!
(fans self contentedly...)
Truth is to liberals as holy water is to vampires.
