Scarborough can give - he's not a journalist according to MSNBC
Update: Hey, Phil -- What about this?

SCARBOROUGH, JOE PENSACOLA,FL 32503 MSNBC/HOST 3/31/06 $2,100 Kitts, Derrick (R)
SCARBOROUGH, JOE PENSACOLA,FL 32503 MSNBC/HOST 3/31/06 $2,100 Kitts, Derrick (R)

It's okay if you're Joe Scarborough I guess. --Jed

Update: Here's how NBC explained Scarborough's donation to Kitts:

Joe Scarborough, host of the "Morning Joe" talk show and the evening newscast "Scarborough Country," $4,200 in March 2006 to Derrick Kitts, Republican candidate for the House from Oregon. ... A spokesperson for NBC, Jeremy Gaines, replied to questions sent to Scarborough. "Yes, he did make a donation to Derrick Kitts. Kitts is an old friend of Joe's. Joe hosts an opinion program and is not a news reporter."

3. That is pure horseshit! Keith is a commentator, not a news reporter. Griffin hates KO.
He's wanted to get him for a long time. Just like he did David Shuster.

6. Doesn't Keith also anchor sports for NBC. Would that be where the commentator
half of his duties falls apart?

10. So - he can't contribute to the James Harrison(Steelers) Defense fund
Steeler inside joke.

No I don't think being a commentator on NBC weekly NFL show is being a journalist. Hope your post was sarcasm.

11. They are kissing the ass of the conservatives plain and simple.

Boner probably read them the riot act.
There is NBC profits but there also are GE profits involved. The Corporations profits outweigh the divisions profits.

12. Oberman is a opinion Journalist just like Scarborough.
His program was opinion and facts not news. It has never
been news.
