Mainstream Media Scream: Mika Brzezinski cheers Clinton, Warren

This week’s mainstream media scream features MSNBC Morning Joe co-host Mika Brzezinski cheering on Democrats Hillary Clinton and Sen. Elizabeth Warren.

On Monday’s show, Brzezinski excitedly held up a Warren T-shirt, a gift from regular guest Steve Rattner who bought it on http://elizabethwarren.com/

She promised: “I’m wearing that running.”

Brzezinski also hailed Clinton: “I think it will be really interesting to watch what she does with the tremendous platform that she has. I hope she takes it to new heights and really does something with it instead of plays it safe.”

And at the end of the show, in the “What Have We Learned Today?” sign-off: “I learned that Hillary Clinton is on the road and ready to sell a message and I can’t wait to hear it.”

Media Research Center Vice President of Research Brent Baker explains our pick: “Brzezinski defines ‘in the tank.’ In the interest of transparency, she should alternate each day wearing the Warren T-shirt and one promoting Hillary Clinton for president. Then again, a good portion of the national press corps should do that.”

Rating: Four out of five screams.
