Joe Scarborough the biggest media fraud of them all. One Star for this episode.
You let Scarborough off the hook with barely any pushback. I strongly believe he lied to your face. Not impressed with the interview
Mark is fair, honest and tough. All one could ask for in a journalist. I am fairly conservative, but simply in search of the truth, wherever that lies. He’s tough when he needs to be, probing when he knows there’s more to the story and helps to drown out the noise made by both sides to get directly to the facts. Well done, Mark! Will be a long time listener!
This was a good interview and I like listening to Mark- the object of my review is Joe Scarborough. I was disgusted with his take on how he misled people. He saw in 2019 the slipping of Biden, yet called him the most cogent ever in 2024.
Sorry, both things can’t be true. Certainly you can still think Biden had good days and bad days, but you must acknowledge he is NOT the best Biden ever.
His explanations were a blatant insult to the people to whom he owes truth.
I disagree with both of them ... more
No matter what the topic, every time I decide to tune in you have to qualify your comments with how bad Donald Trump is as well. If you’re going to opinionate about something, do it, but you don’t have to qualify your comments and drag the president into every issue.
I don’t see how Mark is friends with this fake dishonest, weird old preppy slick man. Just a gross and shady person who wants to be near power. Ugh.
Horrible
Mark. I appreciate your unbiased approach - typically. That Scarborough interview was a joke. Allowing him to claim that Trump has cognitive challenges without pushback was irresponsible. He made excuses for a clearly inept POTUS. It’s gross and irresponsible. Do BETTER.
I’ve enjoyed this podcast so far except for the discussion with Joe Scarborough. He ducked and dodged every question and would not own up to anything! So infuriating!! Mark I wish you would have been tougher on your friend and called him out for not being truthful.
Joe Scarborough has full on TDS and has no credibility whatsoever.
I had high hopes that your guest would own up to his part in the media cover up - very disappointed you allowed him to slither his way out of answering.
I started watching Mark on Showtimes “The Circus”. He was great then and he’s great now! Very informative and entertaining. I look forward to more episodes. MK Media is off to a fantastic start! Congrats!
Mark’s efficient and thorough thought process is so calming and satisfying and necessary in this crazy day and age. Definitely a new necessity for me.
Weird for Megyn to hire someone exposed as a predator during the #MeToo movement, but I guess money wins the day.
I would like to Mark Halperin to explain in more detail his comments on Trump leveraging the Office for personal financial gain.
What are the facts supporting his opinion?
Mark Halperin is my new favorite independent journalist. He asks great questions — never insipid or vague. He certainly leans right, but he’s thoughtful and definitely seeks the truth.
Mark Halperin is the best at what he goes which is interviewing people in a fair way and listening
