Scarborough Suggests NBC Wouldn't Punish Lauer If He Pulled a Stephanopoulos

Did Joe Scarborough just suggest that the suits at his own network are craven cowards who put bucks over ethics?

On today's Morning Joe, Scarborough predicted that if Matt Lauer had pulled a Stephanopoulos, NBC would hesitate to punish him [just as ABC hasn't disciplined Steph], because Lauer's morning Today show "is where they make the money."

Just like ABC hasn’t punished Stephy, Scarborough suggests NBC wouldn’t punish Lauer for same thing. Why? $$$

Ping to Today show list.

Scarborough better watch it. He has been straying from the party line lately.

No doubt, but in this case, he’s calling those people cowards who wouldn’t have the guts to punish Lauer because he makes too much money for them.
