'I found out I was the lowest paid at the table': Morning Joe's Mika Brzezinski reveals she almost quit over gender pay gap

Morning Joe co-host Mika Brzezinski has revealed she almost quit the show after just a year because she was earning far less than her male colleagues.

The 44-year-old said she discovered she took home 14 times less than co-host Joe Scarborough - so little she struggled to make ends meet.

Ms Brzezinski makes the revelations in her new book, 'Knowing Your Value', in which she discusses how women can negotiate the salary they're worth.

I’ve only seen her a couple of times. When I went on vacation with relatives, they watch MSNBC in the morning so I was exposed to it then. They pointed out who she was, as if being someone’s daughter makes one automatically impressive.

After watching for ten minutes I asked “Does she ever say anything?” All I saw her do was sit in the middle of the group, and. as everyone else participated in the discussion she would look at them and make weird facial expressions. She didn’t belong there at all. Way out of her league.

That's Mika, all right. A complete ditz.

Did she ever stop to think it might be a ‘talent’ pay gap?

I mean, having little to none she should be happy they pay her at all.
