Mika Brzezinski

This past week, several MSNBC hosts pushed a sore loser narrative that the Republican House majority was won because of "rigged" congressional districts, with one host even claiming Republicans had been "cheating basically."

Morning Joe devotes a segment to an Axios article, Shards of glass: Inside media's 12 splintering realities. The notion is that depending on demographics, people get their information from very different media silos. One of the categories is "Right-wing grandpas,' a reference to Fox News viewers. What is not revealed is that the average age of Fox News viewers is 68, whereas the average age of…

Joe Scarborough goes on a 20-plus-minute rant. He defends Mika for having said of David Frum's comment about Pete Hegseth, “If you’re too drunk for Fox News, you’re very, very drunk indeed,” that it was "a little too flippant for the moment we're in." Frum wrote a column in response accusing Joe and Mika of being "fearful." Scarborough also defended the decision he and Mika made to travel to…

The incontrovertible top story of the day is Joe Biden's pardoning of his son Hunter, and the president having repeatedly lied in promising not to do so. But Joe Scarborough doesn't describe the pardon as even one of the day's two top stories.  Instead, he buries it 51 minutes into Morning Joe. And even when the show finally gets around to the subject, the gutless Scarborough doesn't express…

The media are offering wall-to-wall condemnations of President-elect Trump’s choice of Kash Patel to lead the FBI. From the NewsBusters’ archives, here’s a quick recap of how the media lost their minds the last time Trump canned one FBI director in favor of another.

Jon Stewart ripped Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski for traveling to Mar-a-Lago to meet the man they called a fascist. "They spent the year going, ‘this man will destroy all that you hold dear, he is a Hitler-Mussolini cocktail mix and we must all stand.’ Literally one week later they’re like, ‘so we go and we have lunch, a light lunch.'"

Sebastian Stan went from an MCU darling to serious actor in one awards season. But after playing Donald Trump in the movie "The Apprentice," Variety found "other actors didn’t want to pair with him because they didn’t want to talk about Donald Trump."

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough admits that voters cared more about the price of gasoline and groceries than his warnings about "fascism" or Mika's concerns over abortion rights. 

Of the television commentators who routinely disparaged, attacked, demeaned, and mocked former President Donald Trump and his supporters, Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, co-hosts of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” belong to the “A” team. Yet, after Trump’s extraordinary victory two weeks ago, including a sweep of all seven swing states and becoming the first Republican presidential candidate to…

In what we learned shortly thereafter was a selfish ploy to save their own behinds from possible scrutiny by a second Trump administration come January 20, the visit to Mar-a-Lago by MSNBC’s Morning Joe co-hosts and married couple Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski to see President-Elect Trump has contributed to the Swamp insider-y show’s ratings cratering like it was hit by one of…

On Wednesday night, Puck’s Dylan Byers broke down the fallout from both MSNBC’s Morning Joe co-hosts and married couple Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski’s attempt at making nice with President-Elect Trump (to avoid his wrath) and Comcast admitting this week it’ll spin off MSNBC and six other cable networks.

Vanity Fair special correspondent Molly Jong-Fast joined Wednesday’s edition of Morning Joe on MSNBC and offered up a rather confusing definition for the word “differently.” Echoing her latest article on the same subject, Jong-Fast told the table that the media needs to cover Donald Trump differently this time, which means the media should focus more on “democracy, democratic…

When last week Mika Brzezinski said that she and Joe Scarborough would like to have a face-to-face meeting with Trump, I wrote: "As for scoring an interview with Trump himself any time soon, don't bet the rent money at Polymarkets on it, Mika!" Oy, was I wrong! On today's Morning Joe, Mika announced that this past Friday, she and Joe did indeed meet with Trump at Mar-a-Lago. 

Morning Joe notes the compliments it has received, including from Trump supporters, on the "calm and measured" way it reported Trump's win, and Mika Brzezinski says "we will continue our best efforts to be fair and objective in reporting on the incoming administration." She adds that the show will "of course" invite members of the Trump administration on the show, and would like to have a face…
