Mika: Issa Calling Carney 'Liar' Makes Us Want to Ignore White House S
A classic case of MSM jujitsu. Yesterday, Darrell Issa called Jay Carney a "paid liar." So did Morning Joe today dig down to see if Issa was right? Of course not. Instead, its focus was on Issa--how he is "overreaching," "overplaying," etc. H/t NB reader Wayne T.
The quintessential statement came from Mika Brzezinski, who actually said that Issa's accusation "makes us all want to walk…

MSNBCers Fall Over Themselves Praising 'Amazing,' 'Historic' Obama For
If you have any lingering doubts about which way MSNBC "leans," you don't need to look any farther than the cable channel's coverage of President Obama's speech on Thursday regarding foreign relations and national security.

MSNBC’s Al Sharpton Ludicrously Claims Small Biz Backs ObamaCare
The “journalists” at MSNBC continued to fawn over ObamaCare on Friday’s Morning Joe, even in the midst of startling criticism for the bill from David Gregory, liberal host of Meet the Press.

'Morning Joe' Panel Does a 180, Ready to Forgive and Forget Obama Admi
Well, that was quick, and sadly predictable. A day after MSNBC’s Morning Joe panel criticized President Obama for his lack of transparency on the three scandals plaguing his administration, the panel kicked off their Thursday show by heaping praise on the president for yesterday’s news conference.

MSNBC brews up a fresh pot of liberal talking points every morning with Morning Joe and its liberal co-host Mika Brzezinski. Brzezinski lets it known every day that she is not only extremely liberal, but looks for every opportunity she can to criticize conservatives on a regular basis.

Brokaw on IRS Scandal: 'Welcome to the Second Term, Mr. President
It appears that there is something not all liberal media members are willing to defend a Democratic administration from: using the Internal Revenue Service to intimidate political opponents.

Joe Scarborough Calls Out Fellow MSNBCer Wolffe For Using A ‘Democra
Regardless of the facts, some at MSNBC continue to peddle White House talking points surrounding the terrorist attack in Benghazi.

The segment began with co-host Joe Scarborough challenging the White House…

Appearing on MSNBC’s Morning Joe on May 9, the Meet The Press host simply claimed that the Benghazi talking points were merely handled by the…
Except for 'Morning Joe,' MSNBC Ignores S.C. Dem’s Racist Attack On
We here at NewsBusters are often extremely critical of MSNBC’s Morning Joe as it often sets the agenda for the daily bias on the cable network. There are a few times, such as the Gosnell infanticide trial, when Morning Joe will actually prompt the rest of the liberal network to begin covering a story that it had previously ignored. Unfortunately that's not the case with Dick Harpootlian's…
S.C. Dem Chairman Levels Racist Attack on Gov. Haley; 'Morning Joe' Be
It’s bad enough that MSNBC is extremely liberal, but when they acknowledge their biases but don’t attempt to correct them, it shows how incorrigible they are. Take Monday's Morning Joe, where the panelists discussed offensive comments made on Friday by outgoing South Carolina Democratic Party chairman Dick Harpootlian.
During his speech, which Vice President Joe Biden was in attendance to…
