Talk:Morning Joe

Sweaters
Some mention should be made of Scarborough always wearing a sweater and not a suit and tie like the normal pundits. This was an attempt to make the show seem warmer and more friendly. OddibeKerfeld (talk) 13:25, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * This is an encylopedia, that should not be included. This is a serious website, inappriate, unreferenced content like that shall not be included. Southern Illinois SKYWARN (talk) 14:14, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Uh, excuse me, but what the hell is "inappriate [sic]" or not serious about that fact? You know, people come to Wikipedia because they want to learn about topics that interest them, not to be spoon-fed what tiny nuggets of information pass . 98.14.160.180 (talk) 11:51, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
 * It's hard to deny that clothing has some factor in the style of a TV show. If there is a suitable source, such information can definitely be included. --Nemo 14:33, 21 July 2018 (UTC)

Opinion
has garnered some audience appeal; though his co-panelists may have more to do with that than Scarborough himself. That sounds a little opinionated with no reference to back it up.--69.142.34.236 (talk) 11:50, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

Cleanup-Rewrite tag
I've rearranged and cleaned up some of the sections. Some citations are still needed, but I don't think that a rewrite is necessary. If no one objects I'll drop the {cleanup-rewrite|date=March 2008} tag in a couple weeks. Steveharoz (talk) 05:02, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm gonna go ahead and drop it. --Steveharoz (talk) 11:19, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

Recent Edit: swear words on live television is not a notable 'incident'
The "Expletive Incident" section was recently removed under the premise that "swear words on live television is not a notable 'incident'". The justification for it being significant is as follows: Whether or not swearing in general is significant, it was significant for THIS show. Steveharoz (talk) 14:03, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
 * 1) Scarborough interrupted the show to repeatedly apologize
 * 2) The broadcasting of all future shows was modified to incorporate a 7-second delay
 * 3) It only happened once on this show


 * I agree with you. It's not up to our opinions of swear words that makes the incident notable.  That it was covered in major publications and mocked by high-profile commentators is what makes it notable.  Chicken Wing (talk) 20:00, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Point of view
The article may be neutral, but it strikes me as possibly a bit euphemistic. With regards to the relationship between the two hosts and their controversy with/around Trump (mentioned in different sections), Lesley Stahl of "60 Minutes" at CBS Sunday Morning sounds more critical, and I don't expect CBS to be particularly savage compared to the average. Someone with better knowledge of USA TV may want to check; I've only added a couple NYT articles.

Also, nothing happened between 2009 and 2016? --Nemo 14:55, 21 July 2018 (UTC)
