The article also has a quote from Steve Deace who I can't believe gets air time and is obviously in the tank for Cruz

I like watching Morning Joe, but Scarborough gets down on his knees in front of Trump every time he's on. They absolutely take it easy on him when it comes to tough questioning.
Which isn't entirely bad if Scarborough would be more honest about his favoritism. It isn't like he's a real journalist, he's just another former politician with a law degree doing a shot. Mika should be ashamed of herself. Far too often she takes the role of second teamer.

They do this a lot. Did it with Elizabeth Warren. Then Christie. Now Trump. Very off putting.

Specifically I was disappointed the morning it broke that Vladmir Putin had said very flattering things about Trump, and he wore that as a badge of honor. Scarborough mentioned that journalists are frequently murdered in Putin's Russia. Trump immediately bristled and Scarborough rolled over for him. But, I think a lot of journalists are afraid of Trump, or will not ask him tough questions because they fear he won't come on their show. He's great for ratings, so why be a real journalist and ask tough questions?

LOL. Are you really saying this? What did the press do to Obama ALL. THE. TIME?

What's it like being on the other side?

People like Trump. THat is why Morning Joe has him on so much. It is all about ratings. Even at 500AM.......If Trump was a bad interview, he wouldn't be on. This is what 24/7 news networks do........even FOX.

Nika was kind of (And, I hate to say it this way), catty this morning. She definitely was stung by the criticism.

You must not ever watch Fox, or listen to Rush, Levine, or Beck.

Let me make one thing perfectly clear…….Beck is an idiot.
