What August Segment? Scarborough Says He Never Said Bush Was An Idiot

January 15th, 2007 2:13 PM
In retracing the early steps of the O'Reilly vs. Scarborough battle, it's funny to see that when O'Reilly attacked NBC and MSNBC on January 4, he probably hadn't left the parking lot at Fox when attack dog Joe Scarborough was already protesting his complaints on MSNBC, and running audio from O'Reilly's radio show earlier in the day.

November 11th, 2006 2:06 PM
On Thursday’s “Scarborough Country,” the host admitted that MSNBC looped the Dittocam video of Rush Limbaugh gesticulating like Michael J. Fox to make it look like it went on longer than it did (hat tip to NB reader ‘DG”, and audio link here with comments by Limbaugh): I mean, the thing is, he moved around for a couple of seconds, and as you and I have both said, we all screw up, we all make…
