Ultraliberal MSNBC's Joe Scarborough slammed the New York Times and the entire leftist press:
(the) "Clinton campaign believed until 9 o’clock (election night) that they had a lock on this, that they were going to win." ...
(the media) "stopped being journalists for the past month, and began being cheerleaders, and began being people who had a conclusion that they reached, and then searched for facts to show that Hillary was a 92, 93, 99.999% chance winner of winning this campaign."
“When anybody even made the suggestion that Donald Trump could be elected president of the United States, it was their journalistic standards that were questioned,” he said.
About the NY Times:
“You had a complete blind spot, and you wanted to keep it that way.
It was much easier for you to stay in Manhattan and say that they are all racists and bigots.”
(if the editors of the Times still believe that 50 million Americans are) “racists and bigots … I take pity on you.”
"But you know what (co-host Mark Halperin) and I did that you didn’t do?
You know what (co-host Mika Brzezinski) did that you didn’t do?
We actually talked to people in Middle America.
And they told us they were hurting, and they told us why they were voting for Trump,” he said.
“Think about what you did.
You were trying to help Hillary Clinton defeat Donald Trump,” Scarborough said.
“You completely ignored the world,” he added.
