Just shining a little light on the past for the new DU'ers who may be unaware. Why is this asshat still on the air?

1. Joe Scarborugh HAD a dead lady in his office once.

3. Fixed it. Thanks.

[Blue Dog Dominion]

5. Thank God for that. Think of the smell otherwise.

[JVS]

20. Love that blue sig line

[goclark]

2. Yes ~ google is your friend

[bunnies]

4. So? nt

[onehandle]

6. So have Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann, and Rachel Maddow.

It's MSNBC's theme.

Fox is the Conservative network.

CNN is the Corporate network.

MSNBC is the Dead Lady network.

7. I don't know why he's on the air (I certainly wish he weren't), I don't see

anything that proves Scarborough guilty of anything other than trying to do damage control over the incident.

If anyone had a motive to harm this woman, it seems more likely her husband would be the one who might be really, really mad at her, not her (alleged?) lover - however annoying he may be...

Sounds like the ME was a mess, but I still can't draw any conclusions that Scarborough did something harmful (or worse) to this woman.... much as that would be convenient for my view of him. It doesn't wash... for me, not from the details I read in this article anyway...

Maybe there is more evidence I am unaware of, but this doesn't scream smoking gun (to me)... : (

8. There is nothing wrong with sack lunches. nt

9. I know that some don't feel that this story is relevant but I do.

Right now Joe is actively undermining Obama and any chance that we might have to keep this country together. Why? Because when the bad boys are in power he doesn't have to worry about his own past crimes. It's like a bunch of alcoholics who welcome the new DUI'er to the club. Thieves and thugs protect each other.

10. Strangely enough Joe's wiki page barely mentions the incident.

Of course Wikipedia can be edited by anyone. Any takers?

15. Can't you do it? You seem to have an axe to grind. NT

17. The more the merrier, especially when it comes to Wiki.

11. Same reason James Worthy and Michael Irvin are. It's okay to abuse women. nt

[merh]

12. two skull fractures with a fist sized hematoma -

that's hard to accomplish just by falling and hitting your head on the desk.

Only when the autopsy report was released (and that occurred only because the editor in chief of the Northwest Florida Daily News Ralph Routon's editorial demanded its issuance) did those willing to exercise their rights under Florida's Sunshine Law learn the extent of Lori's injuries.

The autopsy report revealed that Lori had suffered two skull fractures and an additional wound. A 71/4-inch crack all but spanned the top of her head, from right temple to left.

As a likely consequence of that blow, blood poured in from a steadily pumping heart to form a fist-sized hematoma at the left temple. There were separate 11/2-inch eggshell fractures, essentially pulverizing the bone, deep inside the skull behind the right ear. The back of her head was bashed, and her lungs were filled with bloody foam, suggesting that she took a relatively long time to die.

In the final autopsy report, Berkland wrote off all those devastating injuries to heart failure. According to Berkland, Klausutis had fainted from a weak heart and hit her head on the desk, an unlikely scenario considering the massive damage to the victim's skull.

13. Morning Joe is a disgrace as are the hosts (plural) Mika included - I DO NOT WATCH IT ANYMORE

I suggest everyone else that has any good sense doesn't watch it either! Put it down in the ratings and MSNBC will have to get rid of Joe and his bunch of idiots!

[goclark]

14. I don't watch it either ~ he and his girl side kick are a disgrace nt

[Torn_Scorned_Ignored]

16. Dead intern Joe

yeah, I keep hearing that here so I goggled it a while back.

What I want to know is, why is Mika so stupid? Or is it just an act to make Joe seem superior? You know how those Bible Thumpers are, the woman must be obedient to her man.

btw, did you see Morning Joe a few weeks ago when he was shit-faced drunk?

19. She's his apologist.

A bit like Colmes for Hannity or Juan Williams for the Faux Crew. They are there to keep them in check and make the network seem somewhat reasonable while the right wing hack spouts of his required talking points.

18. I can't resist the ever-popular...

what-if-it-had-been-a-republican game.

The 25%-ers are still going on about Vince Foster, even though there was never any fucking evidence. Imagine if anybody had ever found an actual dead person in Clinton's office. My god, they would have hung him without a trial.
