MSNBC Pulls 'Morning Joe' After Trump Assassination Attempt on July 13th; Scarborough Threatens to Quit
Jul 16, 2024, 01:54 PM
MSNBC has temporarily removed its flagship morning show, 'Morning Joe,' from the air following an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump on July 13th. The decision was made to avoid potentially inappropriate comments from the show's hosts and guests. This move has sparked significant backlash from the show's hosts, Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, who expressed their disappointment and frustration. Scarborough has publicly threatened to quit if the show is preempted again, stating, 'Next time we’re told there’s going to be a news feed replacing us, we will be in our chairs, or they can get somebody else to host the show.' The network replaced 'Morning Joe' with a special NBC News report to continue coverage of the assassination attempt. Scarborough criticized the network's decision, calling it 'emotionally incontinent.'
