Mika Brzezinski: Conway will no longer be booked on 'Morning Joe'

Host Mika Brzezinski says she will no longer allow senior White House adviser Kellyanne Conway on MSNBC's “Morning Joe.”

“I know for a fact she tries to book herself on this show; I won’t do it,” Brzezinski said of Conway on Wednesday morning.

"I don’t believe in fake news or information that is not true. That is — everytime I’ve ever seen her on television something is askew, off, or incorrect,” she added
.


Co-host Joe Scarborough chimed in to say Conway may not have been knowingly spreading false information, but was just making statements “to prove her relevance.”

"I don’t even think she’s saying something she knows to be untrue,” Scarborough said. "She’s just saying things just to get in front of the TV to prove her relevance because behind the scenes she’s not in these meetings and any reporter can ask anybody in that White House and they will say the same thing. She’s not in these meetings. So why does the president allow her to keep going out and spreading false information?

Morning Joe changes with the wind. And, once word comes down from "on high", they'll reverse their stance.

CNN said they would ban Conway, too. But, she was back a few days later and Bill Moyers said that Sr Management at CNN made them reverse the ban.

Mika and Joe were fully a part of the Trump campaign. There is no doubt about that.

In my opinion....Mika to appear outraged... with Joe rescuing Conway as innocent... Trying to show the viewers to be easy on Conway.

...Joe did try to backtrack a little on the Con-woman. Odd how her lies have suddenly become obvious to Mika. They were plain to all, much earlier.

Your credibility sinks so low that even the corporate lame-stream media won't book you.

Hot Mic Captures Trump Asking ‘Morning Joe’ Hosts For No ‘Too Hard’ Questions

“You don’t want me to do the ones—with deportation?” Brzezinski said.

After some cross-talk, co-host Joe Scarborough said, "We really have to get you some questions."

“That’s right, nothing too hard Mika," Trump interjected.

"Okay," Brzezinski said.

Their only purpose in life is ratings and fame. Truth and integrity mean absolutely nothing to them. The put their finger up and see that the wind is blowing anti-Trump today.

Toss all of them in a wine press, and not one drop of credibility would result.
