MSNBC journalist Mika Brzezinski suffered a (staged?) meltdown on the ‘Morning Joe’ show, destroying the Paris Hilton lead story script on camera.
Check it out. The woman literally flies off th deep end.
I am guessing that Mika didn’t get the memo that TV news isn’t about real news.
In other non-news, Miss Hilton is set to appear on ‘Larry King Live’ in only moments.

Ha ha ha… I love how the other journalists antagonize her the entire time. That’s great!
Those other two guys are definitely pushing her buttons on purpose.
That was pretty hilarious.
Joe sniffing the memo was beyond hilarious. Not bad for a conservative.
I found the whole thing refreshing and endearing
Most of them I’ve seen roll their eyes at this crap.
she was totally unprofessional. the other guys were funny. it doesnt matter if journalists dont like what the stories say… i dont see a journalist who is anti-war throwing a fit if they have to read something about president bush and the war. i dont know, maybe they arrange it so someone else reads that but still. she’s a journalist, she shouldn’t behave like she did. it’s not her news only, it’s the news for the rest of the country, and while others may share her opinion on not liking paris, still some people love her… deliver the news to them. let the people choose what they want to hear and what they won’t, but at least get the story out.
Shut up Bee. That was the funniest thing I’ve ever seen. Journalists are human too. Except Ann Coulter. And Rush. And Bill.
im not saying its not funny, it was.
she was just a tad childish in how she acted, thats all.
I don’t blame her at all. Even though I can’t stand MSNBC and their republican ways, I agree that Paris Hilton should NOT be the lead story on ANY news show!!!! She speaks for all us americans tired of too much Paris and wish she would go away for good!!!!!!!!!!
^ ryan - you said it best! thank you!!
Bee- How does Paris count as news? She’s tabloid fodder, and that’s it. If they’re going to cover her short stint in jail, what about all those other people who are handed down sentences for breaking probations or committing DUIs? I commend Mika for refusing to go with the story. Mainstream journalism is diluted enough with superficial news, they don’t have to add more to it! Paris “news” has their time and place in gossip mags and blogs. Lets leave it to that ;).
Anyway, this clip was hilarious :).
Ann Coulter is a devious droid.
Good for Mika!!!
That, kids, is what you call riveting, reality tv - spontaneous, emotional outburst based on a valid argument. I like that she stood her ground - Paris Hilton and her highly-paid handlers can eat shit and die.
WAY TO GO!
“Dont take pictures of me” AHAHA.
I thought it was great–this hardly counts as a meltdown. She didn’t seem that phased by the other guys–they were all in this together. Funny stuff, and a great statement about journalism
Those guys were really pushing her buttons, I don’t think she’d have freaked so much if they weren’t egging her on.
.
Ann Coulter and Rush aren’t journalists and don’t claim to be. They make no qualms about their conservatism and, even though I hate their politics, they never try to mask their true agenda. I wish the same could be said for other popular news people.
Much respect. Good on her.
Bee, the whole point is Paris Hilton should not be NEWS! for crying out loud! You’re right, they wouldn’t behave that way if the topic is the war, because it’s the WAR!
I love that woman lol! Those guys are such condescending assholes! There were definetly a few Ron Burgundy moments in there.
