Back in the 2008 horse-race, when Rachel Maddow was still on the radio and occasionally subbing for Keith Olbermann, MSNBC had an afternoon program called "Race to the White House". Hosted by David Gregory, there were 4 other rotating panelists. Joe S and Rachel were two of the most-frequent regulars.
One day, Joe was being his usual bloviating condescending-to-the-little-lady republicon self, and Rachel didn't sit still for it. She politely proved him not only wrong, but full of shit. Joe yanked off his microphone and walked off the set. Rachel continued to be polite, even to the point of offering a possible explanation that "joe had a very long day and might just be tired".
He's resented her ever since. They don't even run promos for her show during Morning Joe. Rachel once mentioned that it's up to the host to approve which other shows' promos play during their show. She's also never been a panelist on MJ.
Along with everything concerning the dead intern, Joe Scarborough has had that video removed from YouTube and the things you can find today discuss the incident, and have screenshots of before after, but no video.
