Ever since the Ray Rice elevator video went public, Morning Joe has been in a state of sustained moral outrage over the NFL's mishandling of the issue of domestic violence. All well and good. But things turned testy this morning when a New York Times reporter turned the tables on Joe and Mika. When Mika Brzezinski suggested that sponsors should boycott the NFL, Alan Schwarz asked if Joe and Mika should march into the office of the NBC Chairman and demand that the network stop supporting the NFL by broadcasting its Sunday night games.
After first jokingly suggesting that the camera on Schwarz be turned off, Scarborough got seriously snippy. When Schwarz didn't hear Scarborough say "right" in agreement with something the reporter said, Scarborough sarcastically responded "I said right. It means I'm agreeing with you. You don't have to be so defensive. You can just relax." Scarborough continued taking shots at Schwarz after the reporter left the air.

Joe Scarborough gets snippy when a reporter points out NBC’s hypocrisy on NFL and domestic violence. Ping to Today show list.
All this posturing and “ moral outrage” is getting tiresome. These commentators are vying for “The Most Politically Correct Commenter” award. The hypocrisy is insufferable. All these people are making money of young men who are recruited to perform very violent actions. Their personality and strength allows them to give and take repeated punishments. Why would anyone be surprised or “shocked” to learn that they are also violent in there personal lives?
Mika biting the hand that feeds her. She'll be back writing that advice column for Cosmo in no time (BTW, she's underqualified for that gig too.)
How about the media purge their organizations by firing anyone who has been accused of domestic violence? Why is Marv Albert still working?
Who in the world watches pMSNBC? It should have died long ago.
The posturing is very selective too. I didn’t hear any calls from the NYT for Clinton’s resignation after his abuse of women, and they never faltered in their support of Ted Kennedy after he killed Mary Joe Kopecne. Have they called for a boycott of rappers and hip-hop music? Did I miss that?
The Ho’s are busy taking our eyes off the ball which should be focused on this court..Not the NFL and the Ho’s agenda.
Of the AM (radio) talkies covering this subject Red Eye has been most consistant bringing up the how the N.J.DA prosecuter and judge handled this black visitor from PA to Atlantic City CC case

Make a difference send this to those “sportscasters and talk show hosts and intercept this pass play...
What about OJ he beat his wife many time but not word in MSM. Where was they all in Ted K., Clinton & etc.? This Liberals way of downing sports to stop us from watching it. And to get us not focus on all the problem in USA & etc. Borders, terrorist, illegals and on and on….
I wish someone would go after all those in Media, Movie stars, sports announcers, coaches & elected officials check there back ground out. Bet me they would find lots of bad stuff and print it in paper.
These idiots have been on this non-issue for two weeks - and that Times reporter is just as bad as the two idiots who host the show. Now they’re betting hoisted on their own petard and I say, as Stanley Kowalski would say: HA! HA!
What did Joe’s intern say about this? Oh . . . that’s right . . . she’s dead. Howz’ ‘bout answering THAT violence, Morning Joke!
Yeah, Mika! ...I said huge.
They want to kill football and replace it with soccer. They’ve convinced the soccer mommies into fearing their little beasts might get boinked on the head with a football (or a baseball, for that matter) and get a nasty concussion.
“Mika, the sponsors pay your exhorbitant salary.”
“Oh, I didn’t know that.”
LOL! I agree with you, but yesterday, when I said something similar, I was told to have my head examined.
A freeper told you that you should have your head examined? Anybody who doesn’t believe the obvious is out of their mind!!!
