... why did Mika feel the need to apologize for Frum? He was a live guest. I guess she could have read a statement from MSNBC, but it seemed like a personal apology. Also, Joe & Mika have been saying negative things about FOX "News" for years. Most of the time they allude to a "rival network" that is "right-wing," but we know exactly who they are talking about... they allude to certain hosts, also. So THEY DO THE SAME THING! Actually, they are/were correct... I guess this is all good for attention = ratings. Maybe that's the point.
