When will time be up for Chris Matthews? How does he keep his head when so many others have rolled? MSNBC cut Tamron Hall and Joan Walsh loose, but keep him. What could possibly be the justification in light of this?
On January 5, 2016, MSNBC Hardball host Chris Matthews interviewed Hillary Clinton in an Iowa fire station during the Democratic primary season. Network footage obtained by the Cut shows Matthews, during the interview setup, making a couple of “jokes” about Clinton. He asks, “Can I have some of the queen’s waters? Precious waters?” And then, as he waits for the water, he adds, “Where’s that Bill Cosby pill I brought with me?” Matthews then laughs, delighted with the line, for an extended moment, as the staffers around him react with disbelief, clearly uncomfortable. (Cosby has been accused of sexual impropriety by dozens of women, some of whom allege that they were drugged and raped by the comedian.)
When will his outrageous behavior and comments warrant retribution in the eyes of the big wigs over there?

Yup. And what ever fool wrote that tweet from CNN making the rounds which calls the non-joke “racy” should go too. I can’t believe that in 2018 there is ANYBODY who doesn’t understand that rape isn’t about sex but power and control.

I haven’t seen that tweet, but this was the shoe I was waiting to see drop and obviously they are going to protect him and his ick factor.

I can’t figure out why they protect him. He’s horrible even without being a raging misogynist. 🤔

Thanks! I just sat down at my computer to complain to MSNBC about him.

The press is complicit in bringing “Drumpf” into the Oval Office. He was basically normalized when Hillary’s emails were covered non-stop for 18 months (to the exclusion of her policies). In the Harvard study of the 2016 election news coverage, Hillary, by far, got the most amount of negative and least amount of positive coverage. Why are we surprised? I thought Tamron Hall and Joan Walsh were both great. I think Joy Reid should replace that idiot Matthews.

The only thing that has become a “s***hole” is the current Oval Office.
