As it is, the loudmouth whose name is "Joe" seems to think the show belongs to him. After all, it has his name. Obviously a big mistake by MSNBC to reward this egotistical asshole with a show of his own.
How about they change it to "Morning Blather"? Or "Grits and Gravy"? Or anything that doesn't have "Joe" in the title?
If MSNBC management thinks the controversy that Scarborough creates helps their ratings, they are mistaken. Most people just switch the channel or turn it off when he starts screaming like the goat on the GEICO commercial. http://www.marketmenot.com/geico-screaming-scapegoat-commercial/ Joe Scarborough is the screaming goat.

Stop watching that doofus and giving him and his words free rent in your head. Your brain is a precious resource and you are poisoning with crap every second you watch stupid "news" shows. Of course Joe is an idiot. I knew that years ago and have not watched him utter three words since then

(70,700 posts)One might imagine that somebody who chooses to be in a public arena would be interested to know who's-who (no matter how low rated) who might affect his public fortunes, or minimally have staff who would do his research for him and prepare him for appearances.
Otoh, Jeb Crow Shrub, who is said to be tech-savvy on his own and who is trying to fill the gaps between his party and the generation that is young and tech-savvy, hired a COMMUNICATIONS dude who tweets juvenile and backward items offensive to that generation. Besides that Jeb Crow Shrub, further attempting to show his tech-savviness, posted thousands of e-mails with confidential, personal information in them. As was noted a month ago when he was announcing his intention to post these things for the purpose of his "transparency," these e-mails are routine/policy things that do not show his transparency. The ones that WOULD show transparency would be those about his crooked businesses and answer questions about his crooked 1stGenCubanExile/CIA partners and about those suitcases of cash he carried aboard private planes.

(40,416 posts)Every time Joe says anything there will be the canned audience laughter afterwards, just like a sitcom.
Otherwise, no other changes.
It'll be a big hit.
