From Thurs, at 60K viewers in the demo, they must be becoming irrelevant to certain sponsors.

This is hilarious. In real life, I'm sure Joe and Mika are nice, great people.

On air, they come off as lazy and arrogant. Sometimes they take 4 or 5 minutes just to brag about who is on the show and what they did over the weekend before they even take on anything of substance.

I wonder if anyone at that network cares. I do think this is hilarious; laziness on air should be rewarded with little or no viewers.

To lazy and arrogant I would add self-absorbed. Joe and Mika are pretty decent when on their own, but when together on the show they are insufferable. They seem to think their banter is funny, like they're Kelly and Michael or something. The domineering hubby and hectoring wife schtick is played out. Their guest lineup and long, mostly intelligent segments with them used to make up for it, but not anymore. A real shame.

I couldn't take watching Joe's yes men practically cowering in fear and silence whenever Joe goes on one of his childish rants.

I'd give Joe a 2nd chance if they showed some humility and addressed the fact that they stink right now.

The other channels just seem like they're working harder or something... can't put my finger on it.

Joe just seems like its in slow motion... like they know they have 3 hours, and that is torture to them. I don't know if they changed it up or not, but I remember when the time from 8:00 to about 8:20 was NOT LIVE, just a repeat of the 1st 20 minutes. So, for quite a while, this was not even a 3 hour live show. LAZY

MSNBC is tanking in general, cable news in general are starting to fail as people turn to alternative sources(internet, radio) for their news, It's just MSNBC is falling first because of their reporting style

MSNBC's big problem was that between about 2005 and 2010 it started to move away from anchoring straight news shows and veered more into opinion shows. As that happened they dumped off a lot of good looking newswomen and moved away from hard hitting news anchors for dolts who just ranted about politics. They moved away from breaking news and focused on other stuff. It was unappealing.

good points, this is my frustration!! for goodness sake, TV is a VISUAL medium, we want and need pretty things to look at... I just hope the terrible ratings numbers will force them to make changes.

Never thought a morning show was the right use for Scarborough. He was better on Scarborough Country (O'reilly-type show) where his arrogance played better.

Morning Joe and MSNBC sucks. No surprise there.

The big story from the article is Megyn Kelly ruling supreme over all of cable news.
