Who: MSNBC regular Donny Deutsch. What: He made an offensive comment about former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin on Morning Joe yesterday that he apparenly thought was a joke. “It was weird,” he said. “She asked for my telephone number.” Bet he wouldn’t say such a thing about, say, Hillary Clinton.
Why it’s dim: The joke bombed on set. If you’re going to be offensive, can you at least be sort of funny?
Cure: Prudence, Donny. Prudence.
