Sometimes, a show's guest list is enough to illuminate its liberal bias. Take today's Morning Joe. Joe Scarborough has previously spoken of the show's prevailing 10:1 ratio of liberal to conservative guests. But Morning Joe took matters that silly millimeter longer today, with a lineup utterly devoid of any Republican or conservative guests, to wit:
- Katty Kay--BBC
- John Heilemann--New York magazine
- Mike Barnicle--former Kennedy-clan aide
- Carl Bernstein --Vanity Fair, formerly of Washington Post
- Eugene Robinson--Washington Post
- David Gregory--NBC host, Meet the Press
- Al Sharpton--MSNBC host, activist
- Touré --MSNBC contributor, 9/11 truther
When this NewsBuster raised Morning Joe's lack of balance in the past, a show source spoke of the difficulty of booking conservative guests. Anyone buying that as the predominant explanation of the guest list's tremendous tilt to port?
