"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false." -- William Casey, Reagan's presidential campaign manager & CIA Director (from first staff meeting in 1981)

Scarborough suspended from MSNBC for giving money to candidates without notifying management beforehand.

As with Olbermann, they may have the RIGHT to do this - suspend him, fire him, etc. - but I'm hoping they won't. I don't care for Scarborough, but I support his right to give to the candidates of his choice.

I remember what Colbert said about Jon Stewart in an interview after Colbert had left The Daily Show. He said he didn't really have any politics of his own, but when Stewart took over the show after Craig Kilborn's departure, his one instruction to the staff and the correspondents was that he didn't care what their political point of view was, only that they have one.

Seems odd to expect someone to comment on politics without having a point of view about the stuff they make a living commenting on.

Hopefully there's another petition floating around in support of Scarborough. As I said, I don't care for him, yet I'd happily sign a petition to put him back to work.

ETA: No petition that I can find, but the suspension has been announced to be for two days only, same as Olbermann got. I guess that makes it about as "fair" as it can be for such a situation.

America loves a winner!

The Olbermann stunt was just that. A cheap publicity stunt, played to the hilt by " management" , to help save their pathetic excuse of a cable network.

Scarborough was an actual US Congressman. Please, this is getting beyond inane.

No one cares about msnbc, not even a little.

I know - next they'll be claiming that the President's Mumbai trip cost taxpayers $200,000,000 per day! Before you know it, they'll be reduced to simply running heavily-edited tape loops from breitbart.com. ;)

Gettin' old, but still a hippie at heart...

They probably got a lot of flack because Olbermann was suspended when there are probably others (well, obviously at least one other) who did the same thing. It's absurd.

Not sure i get your point. I've never said anything about the cost of a trip. My "Whatever" was to the whole thread......Once again you prove that we sprang from apes, but you didn't spring far enough....Dickwad.

Oh, as far as being hypocritical...I have more conviction in my middle finger than your mother has in HIS entire body...

Your "whatever" was the petulant little outburst of a child who knows they're wrong, but doesn't have the character to admit it.

And it's lovely how you, the most vile, foul-mouthed, hateful and factually challenged tool around, feel I] am an ape. I suppose that makes you a flea on an ape's ass.

That's a big step up for you from your usual bagel reference. Good to see someone here expanding their scope.

I actually like the little gal until she gets all militant and such. When she's relaxed she's quite charming and entertaining.

Wrong how? Thinking a major network would pull a stunt? You are an idiot. Your mother should have had a pole inserted in her cunt, a rotating blade slide in, had you diced into little morsels of stupid, had you sucked out, and added a photo of your bloody fetus bits to a magnet used as an anti-abortion campaign. Say hi to your uncle-daddy.

I have no problem being a flea. I take it as a complxment....Dickwad.

------------------------------------------------
Kwicko, I formally condemn your mother for not aborting you. Yeah, I'm sure her brother was happy to have a son, but you are inexcusable....
