And Now for Another MSNBC SuspensionPosted on Nov 19, 2010
Perhaps it was in the name of being fair and balanced, but whatever the reason, MSNBC brass decided to give “Morning Joe” anchor Joe Scarborough the Keith Olbermann treatment for making campaign contributions—but in this case to Republican candidates. —KA

The river in which Scarborough and MSNBC runs deep.
Skeleton in his closet?

No loss, although Joe is not as annoying as the douche bag Rush.

Just as stupid as the Olbermann suspension, yes, but for two days. Olbermann got suspended indefinitely, ending up being a couple of weeks and reinstated after a big deal protest, for contributing to…Democrats.
Not quite the same, it seems to me.

Nah. They couldn’t figure out what to do with KO (especially when they saw the ratings slump). Once they figured it out, they simply did the same thing to JS. A no-brainer.

I guess those big paychecks and notoriety come at a loss of those freedoms we simple folk enjoy so much.
Selling ones soul to the company store.

The way of our world today. Suspensions handed out for supporting a candidate by MSNBC to their TV anchors. Fox rewards theirs while they incite bigotry, encourage grown-up bully tactics while displaying fire-arms, support buying of elections by large contributors through illicit means, etc. I hate all that yuppy type attitude the GOP uses like if they are untouchable, all that shallow tee-hee-ing, that high school clique attitude. Some might say that MSNBC is taking the high road. How about you? What legal means can be used to stop these bastards?
