Here's Chuck Todd Flipping the Bird on Live TV

Max Read · 12/14/11 09:13AM

Is Morning Joe the most offensive morning news and talk show on cable television? Seriously, it's like you can't turn it on without catching something vulgar and indecent. Just watch this video: Harold Ford is presented as an intelligent, thoughtful person with valuable and considered opinions. Children watch this show! What if my kid comes home and starts imitating these people? Maybe you want a nation of tiny Mark Halperins running around—I, for one, do not.

Ann Coulter's 'Douche Bag' Too Edgy for Morning Joe

Max Read · 11/29/11 10:40AM

The first question you probably asked yourself when you got out of bed this morning was probably, "What insightful opinions can Ann Coulter share with me today?" And now you'll never now, thanks to the oppressive "douche bags" at Morning Joe, who bleeped out about 13 seconds of Coulter's hilariously edgy political commentary:

Bill Clinton: Let Presidents Serve Three Terms!

Jim Newell · 11/08/11 12:37PM

Bill Clinton popped into MSNBC's Morning Joe this morning, for some reason. Perhaps because all the dentists offering root canals were booked at the time? Oh, yes, he had to promote his new policy book! Anyhoo, he really wants to be president again.

Inseparable, Insufferable TV Hosts to Write Joint Memoir

John Cook · 10/20/11 04:14PM

Coffee marketers and morning-show hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski are writing a memoir. Together. Because the fact that you see them on the TV together means that you want to read about them both at the same time! If you'd like to read about them separately, pick up Brzezinski's 2009 already written memoir All Things at Once and Scarborough's 2004 "part memoir, part political treatise" Rome Wasn't Burnt in a Day. Maybe this new one will have awesome sex scenes, or something.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough Honors 9/11 Anniversary With Unspeakable Musical Crime

John Cook · 09/08/11 11:32AM

Aging television presenter Joe Scarborough is so desperate for you to know that he's cool and plays guitar and likes Elvis Costello that he decided to defile the memories of all those who died on 9/11 and in its subsequent wars with this horrible fucking song that will make you crack your teeth open with rage if you listen to it. Serving as a foot soldier for Newt Gingrich and rushing to the defense of an abortion doctor's murderer are no longer the worst things Scarborough has ever done. Playing rock star with dead people is.

Leave Mika Alone, She Just Likes Booze

Sarah Prial · 12/21/10 11:12AM

Mika showed up late to Morning Joe today and upon her arrival, the producer read a letter from a fan concerned for Mika's well-being. Mika defends herself, but adds at the end, "and I like my vodka." Us, too.

MSNBC Suspends Joe Scarborough over Political Donations

Jim Newell · 11/19/10 02:23PM

MSNBC, just to put itself on the record as "consistent," has suspended Morning Joe co-host Joe Scarborough for the same reason it suspended Keith Olbermann: Political donations without advance approval. Interestingly, Politico, where Scarborough writes a column, instigated the suspension.

MSNBC Might as Well Suspend Joe Scarborough, Too

Adrian Chen · 11/06/10 10:29AM

MSNBC suspended Keith Olbermann because he donated to candidates' campaigns. Uh, so did Joe Scarborough. Alabama campaign finance records show he made a $5,000 donation to an Alabama state legislative candidate. Scarborough claims it was his wife's donation.
