'Morning Joe' host Scarborough addresses being off air, criticizes network: 'We were very disappointed'
Fox News
"Morning Joe" hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski addressed being off the air on Monday following the assassination attempt against Donald Trump.
Returning to the airwaves, Scarborough took some time at the top of the show's second hour on Tuesday to address the confusion. Hanna Panreck is an associate editor at Fox News.
"We were told, in no uncertain terms, on Sunday evening, that there was going to be one news feed across all NBC News channels yesterday," Scarborough said, referring in part to NBC's parent network and his home at MSNBC, the left-leaning cable affiliate. "That was going to be one news feed across all NBC News channels. That we were going to stay as a network in breaking news mode throughout all day yesterday. That did not happen. We don’t know why that didn’t happen. Our team was not given a good answer as to why that didn’t happen, but it didn’t happen."
Fox News Digital reported Monday that the show's producers and hosts had been informed that would be the case but were left shocked and upset when it appeared to be the only significant MSNBC program on Monday to be sidelined.
