um, why? brooklynite Jul 2015 #1

Most has restriction about salary issues. Also I believe MSNBC has changed ownership. CK_John Jul 2015 #4

Nope, still owned by NBC Universal. brooklynite Jul 2015 #5

Lawrence acted like Joe acts on a regular basis, and everyone treated it like it was some shock. Erich Bloodaxe BSN Jul 2015 #2

Yeah, for once he actually refused to let Joe bully and bluster and talk over him. Surya Gayatri Jul 2015 #6

Because they had an argument?

Because Lawrence stood up for NBC's statement about what they paid Trump, and NBC owns MSNBC?

I mean, true, it was out of character for Lawrence, but it certainly wasn't any more than Joe does all the time, being the show's bully.

What an odious personality is Scar. If I had to have daily contact with that dumb-ass, I would've decked him by now.

Don't know how Mika manages not to, except that she's highly paid to cater to Sir Blow-hard.

What happened? I know Scar is a loud-mouth bully and loves to argue.

I saw TLW segment last night on Trump. Lawrence took on Trump about he is worth 9 billion dollars & pointed out that NBC a few years ago issued a press release that Trump grossly exaggerated his apprentice salary (The actual NBC Press Release was shown in the background. Lawrence mentioned they called NBC & said they did not want comment. I do not watch MJ. The comments I am reading that majority are supporting Lawrence.
