Scarborough Accusing MSNBC of Voter-Suppression 'Fearmongering?'

Will Joe Scarborough be hearing from some MSNBC suits? You can imagine Joe being called on the carpet for having, on today's Morning Joe, not-so-subtly accused his own network of "fearmongering" the issue of minority voter suppression against Republicans.

During a discussion of Hillary's planned speech of today on expanding the voting calendar, Scarborough spoke of "cable news" and "cable shows" driving ratings by "fearmongering" the notion of Republicans supposedly engaged in voter suppression. So which cable news network could Scarborough have in mind? Fox News? Nope. CNN? Meh. Googling "MSNBC voter suppression" yielded 136,000 hits, including links to virtually every MSNBC host, from Matthews to Maddow, Roberts to of course Sharpton, beating the voter suppression drum.

Sounds like Scarborough just accused MSNBC of fearmongering on voter suppression to drive ratings.

Ping to Today show list.

More likely some nasty little tidbit of Scarborough's past will be "leaked".

Not enough to remove him from his post as the resident "Conservative" at PTSDNBC but enough to keep him in line.

The Constitution calls for ONE DAY of voting. Absentee ballots should take care of those who cannot attend on that ONE DAY. There should be no early voting at all!

That's exactly what Monica Lewisky's ex-boyfriend's wife will be doing today at Texas Southern University.
