Scarborough Thanks MSNBC Boss for Booting Liberal Hosts
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 08/27/2015 5:23:52 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

The morning after Al Sharpton was booted to the Sunday morning desert from his evening show, and not long after Ed Schultz and Alex Wagner were relieved of their hosting duties, Joe Scarborough has profusely thanked NBC News honcho Andrew Lack for making those changes.

On today's Morning Joe, Scarborough was discussing stunning poll results in which the first word that came to voters' minds about Hillary was "liar." Asked what was the worst thing said about him in such polling, Scarborough said "he works for MSNBC was always the worst." But Joe then added, his hands steepled in a gesture of gratefulness: "not any more though, cause things have changed. Thank you, Andy. Thank you very much."

I stopped listening to them too.

I now watch/listen to Maria Bartiromo on Fox Biz. A big contrast to F&F in terms of intelligent talk. Not to mention that ass Brian Kilmeade is insufferable to listen too.

On weekdays when I'm home during the day, I find Fox News morning kinda silly..with their "Breaking News" logo, you first hold your breath thinking it is something apocalyptic, only to see it's something tame like Congress is in session or such..and that they do that all through the morning..

Never watch MSNBC. Anyone know what sort of programs replaced these liberal hosts? Any change in MSNBC’s general leftist nitwittery?

I refuse to become a member of the Trump cult.

The Trump cult will have you watching MSNBC and CNN and boycotting Fox. It is bizarro world.

I got a chance to be driving around yesterday escorting my kids shopping for school and the only station where I could find decent coverage of the shooting was o MSNBC on my XM radio.

CNN and Fox News both have their own XM channels and so does CNN Headline News but their commercial interruptions are so long and timed at the same time that it doesn’t translate well into radio broadcast.

...it ended when no one bought his manifesto (his book that he touted endlessly on his show could not be given away).

There was a time when MSNBC was the (relatively) conservative alternative; most of its then conservative staff moved to Fox.
