Has Joe Scarbrough been suspended for political contributions?
Thought I heard that on CNN. If true, at least MSNBC is an equal opportunity enforcer.

1. Yes, for two days. If you search him here with "suspended"
you should pull up some threads from Thursday or Friday.

2. Only because someone exposed him. Politico? Can't recall for sure.
It was only a $4K contribution. Probably a drop in the bucket.

3. I cannot help but entertain that it was only after JS was found out

to having done it too, that KO's position was reinstated so quickly. Now, they had to punish JS too, or else come off as ridiculous.
With KO it was 'indefinite' until the uproar and subsequent discovery of Joe doing it too. Now Joe gets a few days off during the holiday week. and knows he's coming back.
So I won't quite give them the fair and balanced seal of approval.

5. The suspension is undoubtedly "with pay."
Poor soul....:cry:
