Morning Joe's Pro-Koch Coverage Pays Off With "Exclusive, First-Ever Joint Interview"

October 30, 2015 10:09 AM EDT ››› ERIC HANANOKI

Morning Joe hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski's tireless efforts to defend industrialists Charles and David Koch have paid off: the Koch brothers have granted them "an exclusive, first-ever joint interview" on MSNBC. The Morning Joe crew has called David Koch "a godsend," portrayed the billionaires as similar to "most Americans" in their political views, and dismissed attacks over their dark money spending as "stupid" and "embarrassing."


MSNBC's Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski will have an exclusive, first-ever joint interview with Charles and David Koch. The interviews will take place in the Koch's childhood home in Wichita, KS.

In one sitdown with Charles Koch, Joe and Mika will discuss with him his new bestselling book "Good Profit". Then, David will join Charles for a conversation about their unique backgrounds and lives, and their thoughts on politics.

"Morning Joe" (weekdays, 6-9 AM ET) will air the interviews in a special live broadcast from Wichita State University on Tuesday, November 3, one year out from Election Day 2016. [MSNBC.com, 10/27/15]

Since people are finally becoming more familiar with the Koch bros. and their tricks, the money they're spending/have spent looks like it hasn't been a very good investment. Some of the wimps who have agreed to push their propaganda haven't worked out too well...Scott Walker comes to mind...and the smaller cities and towns aren't letting them into their elections like they'd figured out earlier, so I'd say they are finally seeing they are losing their evil grips on politics and policies, alike. They can write all the books they want, their deeds are being noticed and the reception is negative. This land is our land...not yours.

Now, if the media will just get some ballz and start exposing more of the Kochs' ecological sins and track/connect these clowns to all the think tanks/non-profit groups like the Chamber of Commerce who are supporting/promoting their corporate greed, maybe people will wake up and start believing the 99%.

If the Kochs aren't happy with the US of A, perhaps some foreign country would suit them better. Shoot, they could afford a couple islands where they could spend their days laughing at climate change as the water creeps up their shins.
