Joe Scarborough Loses It Live

The Morning Joe last Friday awkwardly exemplified how and why the dinosaur media is passing away before our eyes.  You couldn't write a more awkward scene if you tried. The show hosted by Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski suffered a Fukashima sized meltdown by what seemed to be a blitzed Morning Joe.


I don't drop in to watch Scarborough's show very often and if the Neilson ratings have anything to say neither does anyone else you know.  Scarborough was incited into a peculiarly theatrical tirade after playing a clip of Newt Gingrich claiming that Obama wants to "redesign our lives by letting him and his bureaucrats do it for us" and asserting this stratagem for America "is the opposite of freedom!"  Scarborough dramatically screams in disagreement "Ghaddafi...now that's the opposite of freedom!" and "Al'Qaeda is the opposite of freedom!"


Scarborough screams "He's been doing it for 20 years!"  And asks melodramatically "When is he going to stop!?" Continuing, Joe bemoans Gingrich's "socialist machine that wants to chew up Jesus and spit out the American flag!" Can anyone say baggage!?  Boy what did Newt do to this guy?
