Scarborough: Right-Wing Bloggers Criticizing Mika For Cutting Off Pastor Jones Are 'Crazy People'

Crazy? I'll give you crazy . . .

Last Friday Mika Brzezinski and Morning Joe engaged in some strange and possibly unprecedented TV "journalism." They invited Terry Jones—the potentially Koran-burning pastor—on the show via live feed, gave former Newsweek editor Jon Meachem the chance to lecture him about Christianity and implore him not to proceed with his plan . . . then summarily cut the feed without giving Jones the chance to say word one in response.

"We don't really need to hear anything else" declared Mika, as she shut down the pastor's microphone.

A number of bloggers, including NB's own Matt Hadro and me, noted and criticized Mika's bizarre move. But there was Joe Scarborough on the show today, mockingly writing off Mika's critics as "crazy people."

Jon Meacham is living proof that knowledge and intelligence are not necessary to hold a top position in today’s media/press. Meacham is just embarrassing.

MSNBC is nothing more than a propaganda-fest. It needs to go off the air.

My opinion is that Saturday Night Live memorable quote by Dan Akroyd is applicable here: “Mika you ignorant slut”

I'm praying I don't get deleted............ :O)
