Was Morning Joe's broadcast whack in anyone else's area?
I tried to tune in to the show around 7:15 EST and there was a blank screen. I tried a half hour later and the video was showing a commercial but the audio was the guests on the show talking. I haven't seen any reference to it so far here at DU so I'm just wondering...:shrug:

1. Morning Joe is getting unwatchable.
I turned on the tv and watched a couple of minutes,
just long enough for Joe to start joking and
laughing about the cholera epidemic in Zimbabwe,
for Mika to try and fail to tone it down, and for
the other guests to play into it. And they were
going on and on about Rahm's refusal to answer
reporters' questions last night at his children's
concert, saying he just wanted to be a father.
They took him to task for not being able to
multitask and they said that he should always
be willing to answer questions no matter where
he is or what he's doing.

The laughter about the cholera epidemic was
VERY disturbing.

It was so disgusting that I changed channels to CNN,
but there was no new news there .. just the same
ole same ole... the failed auto bailout vote and
whether Bush would step in and earmark the last
15 billion of bailout money for Detroit, and
whether Obama would finally come clean about who
talked to or met with Blag.

Seriously, this Blag stuff is getting way overblown
wrt Obama.

2. A cholera epidemic is always so much fun.
Why am I not surprised at this?

Of course, they're going after this Blago story. It's the only tiny scrap they have at this point.

Ugh. I'm glad I couldn't watch it.

3. Maybe it was always meant to hurt Obama
Blagovitch may have been desperate in a gamble to blackmail the Obama people with complicity or FAILURE to grease the wheels into silence. An intriguing possibility is whether he was hoping to deal with the Bush people in a three way to save himself at Obama's expense or tie both DOJ's into knots. Desperate more than arrogantly stupid perhaps.

The MSM remains the same, a shame to journalism, the nation and themselves and an arrow aimed at Democrats and democracy everywhere. You can characterize it as evil by the descent into crude malice toward the poor, the suffering and the truth in any form.

6. They all need to be in Rehab ~ they are abusing the airways

and not funny at all.

No one has been able to tell me yet ~ what magic does JS have for staying on the air?

Is his father a VP at MSNBC?

He has zero talent and it is clear that he has serious mental issues,

He is an accident that happens to the America people everyday.

I realize that many say, " Just don't watch it" and I usually just channel change him quickly but --- " Know thy Enemy" is in the picture for me.

He and his crew of Enablers are the pits.
