In its efforts to cover the Malaysia Airlines crash today, MSNBC stumbled. In this case, the enormity of the stumble can’t possibly be described, abridged, short-handed or whatever. Just read the transcript of the video above. The awfulness occurs as MSNBC host Krystal Ball takes a phone call from an alleged “eyewitness” to the crash:

This is awesome beyond words.....

Great line on O'Reilly this evening by Bernie Goldberg....

"We all know that nobody listens to MSNBC, but I never knew that its own hosts don't even listen to the people they are interviewing........."

In all fairness, the vast majority of this falls on the Producers who let this guy get on the air. She probably wasn't listening to him but to the Producer in her ear prepping her for the next question.
The only thing missing was a Baba-Booey

Bahahaha, a MSNBC "exclusive". Idiots.

wow

That is freaking hilarious!!!

This is another in a long line of Stern fans doing this for a couple of decades. Sounded like the guy he has had on his show a bunch of times doing this. Poor taste?...yep. Funny...Hell yes.

Meh. Would have been funnier if he had pranked a legitimate news organization.

Awesome?

Someone made a joke out of the deaths of 200+ people and you think it's awesome?

Somebody made a fool out of a moon bat liberal hack on MSNBC. Yes, that is awesome to me. Sorry if that got your panties in a wad.

They didn't make a fool out of her. It was whomever actually screened the call and believed that the person had legitimate information.

I'm willing to bet that person will be fired by tomorrow but that is besides the point.

Anyone who would do something like this is despicable. That you or others would find humor in this is disgusting.

And of course, Fit, you'd have had the same reaction if it had been Fox that got punk'd, right?

Fit, I took what you said into consideration. The call was in poor taste. Then I re-watched it and laughed at the fact the girl just kept it rollin', but still...poor taste.

There's something to be said about quality journalism...we don't see much of it anymore. These fools cut corners to get ratings (instead of actually providing accurate, timely, information) and pay the price. Maybe they'll do their HW next time. I doubt it...will probably just keep the caller in house.

Wait. What?

This moronic, mouth breathing, teleprompter reading, thoughtless broad is named "Krystal Ball"?

And A. She isn't a pole dancer? B. She didn't see this coming?

Have a nice career reporting the bundle prices for the latest harvest of Yak and beaver pelts, you certifiable moron.

MSLSD, where the idjit class goes for noos once leibowitz is done with the variety show.

Heh, yep, it did sound like Captain Janks. Although he should've tried to carry on longer (she obviously missed the fart part) instead of just calling her a dumb@ss.

Yes..It was Janks. He has done this dozens of times. You would think the networks would screen the calls better by area code to catch him. He seems to get away with this pretty easily. This one was tame compared to lots of calls he has made.

Yeah, that's my opinion as well. I can't stand MSNBC but the murder of nearly 300 innocent people isn't something to joke about, at least IMHO.
