Why the U.S. Executive Office watches Joe Scarborough & Mika Brzezinski on ‘Morning Joe’ daily

President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and most of their top aides are avid watchers of MSNBC’s Morning Joe, hosted by JOE SCARBOROUGH and MIKA BRZEZINSKI. One White House official reported that much of President Biden’s support staff feel that Morning Joe is the fairest media outlet. According to Axios, “The president often calls co-host Joe Scarborough — a former Republican congressman… to get Scarborough's take on issues.”

Their even-keeled interview style has granted Scarborough and Brzezinski unprecedented access to the Oval Office. Scarborough conducted a touching personal interview with President Biden, and Brzezinski sat down with First Lady Jill Biden to discuss the demands and challenges of  running a presidential campaign. Skilled political commentators, knowledgeable interviewers, and effective moderators, Scarborough and Brzezinski are at the helm of today’s most influential political news.
