What is Scarborough being suspended for? Profanity? Or Making Shit Up?

[devilgrrl]

BTW, if he has issues with Rahm Emanuel's supposed used of the "F" word - where was his moral outrage when Dick Cheney told Pat Leahy to "go f*** himself" on the senate floor?

[gaiilonfong]

1. is he really being suspended?

link please

[annabanana]

2. Oh it's profanity for sure... He's been making shit up for years...n/t

[stray cat]

3. I haven't heard anything about a suspension - where did you hear that?

[Ichingcarpenter]

4. I didn't read he got suspended..... got a link?

Although that might make morning joe fun tomorrow to see how they handle it.

[fascisthunter]

5. He Lost It, Like Most of These Reich WIngers... They Can't Handle Reality

They lose their cool and do stupid vindictive shit, as if it will do anything but make matters worse. That is the definition of STUPID.

I think the man wants to be fired.... being on a network channel that is more balanced these days is too SCAREY for him. He can't handle it...

[malaise]

8. He lost it since election night

This was bound to happen - he is seething with anger after that whipping...and I'm lovin' it. :rofl:

[fascisthunter]

12. Me too....

The man is a nut... they all are. When one is that bent on a failed ideology, you have to be. It's always the World around them that is at fault... they never have the balls to look in on themselves and just wonder... if maybe... the problem begins with them.

Ah... but once you do that, you have to go all the way... you have do something about that problem, and head cases like Scarb, just can't do it....

If he's doing it for ratings well.... that's stupid too.

17. He wasn't "seething" this morning

He was quoting someone else and just slipped up. He didn't even realize it till a few minutes later. It was actually pretty funny. My husband kept rewinding it.

[malaise]

23. Did you watch the start of his program this morning?

Same old seething.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

9. Did You Even Watch The Video?

Cause the way you depict it is really quite far from the reality of what happened.

He didn't lose it at all and was very calm and nonchalant the entire time.

[fascisthunter]

15. Yeah, Actually I Did. DId You Watch It Too?

because the way you are defending him, makes me wonder if you like the man a little too much.

When you say "FUCK YOU" on tv and you are supposed to be a professional news personality, that means you've lost it.

But if you like the man, well then, one could understand that poor attempt at spin you just provided.



Have a nice evening...:evilgrin:

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

20. The Way You Described It Isn't Close To The Reality.

You act like he said fuck you in a derogatory way, as if someone were to say "Fuck you fasisthunter". But that isn't how he said it at all. It was a small slip done innocently, without aggression and while being very nonchalant.

And no, I don't like Joe whatsoever, and your insinuation that I would makes you look quite ridiculous. But one need not like another in order to be objective and fair.

See, facts matter fascisthunter, and having integrity when in regards to them trumps any political stripe.

[malaise]

6. I'll just celebrate his departure even if it's just

a suspension. He's very selective re outrage. Don't forget his outrage at Janet Jackson's boob during the superbowl.
Joe Scum is a partisan hack.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

7. Is He Truly Suspended? I've Found Nothing Stating He Is. I Kinda Feel Bad For Him If He Is, But

that's life.

He said it in an editorial sense and obviously had no idea he didn't say the shortened version. The video clip is friggin hilarious! But still, it's hard for me to get behind the outrage when it is so clear how innocent of a mistake it was on his part. I still haven't found any reliable source stating his suspension though.

[dhpgetsit]

11. I think i saw it on Hardball.

He said "Fuck you" athough he was quoting someone else when he did. It was Live TV.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

13. No Shit. I Know All About What Happened. But I Haven't Seen Anything Credible Stating He Was

suspended.

[dhpgetsit]

18. I think it is rumor at this point.

Since he was not on Morning Joe.

[Caretha]

22. ROFL

you're a piece of cake Operationmindcrime. You know, I really have no problem with the word fuck. In fact I say fuck alot. Especially after reading your posts. I often say FUCK! Look at that guy turning himself into a fucking pretzel again! Then I say "Fuckin' A...there goes Operationcrimemind blowin' my fuckin' mind again. :)

Of course, I'm not on national TV purporting to be a "Fair & Balanced NEWS broadcaster. I'm almost positive that Walter Cronkite use to make several of those nonchalant innocent mistakes and say fuck alot during his news broadcasts. That's why I fuckin' respected him so fuckin' much.

Respectively Fuckin' Yours,

Caretha :)

[devilgrrl]

25. Perhap's he not suspended, nor am I outraged by it but he was making shit up when he said it.

Not that that's anything new from that bozo.

[City Lights]

10. I've seen no confirmation of his suspension.

All I saw was a thread that said Stephanie Miller reported that he was. Do you have a confirmation on this?

[sellitman]

14. Suspended? How about being jailed for KILLING HIS INTERN?

Suspended?

Don't make me laugh.

[sixmile]

16. This is how unsubstantiated rumors get started

[Sedona]

19. Limbaugh still a pedophile

[wildbilln864]

21. and what about his oxy charges? nt

[Stinky The Clown]

24. Scarborogh dropped the F Bomb live on teevee this morning. But I have heard nothing of suspension.

There's a youtube clip of 'ol Dead Intern Joe dropping said F-Bomb. Search in this forum for Scarborough threads. One of them has the link.
