Condit v Scarborough

Gary Condit is a former representative for the 18th and 15th district of California. He served as a representative in California from 1989 to 2003. In 2001, Condit was heavily publicized for having an affair with Chandra Levy, who went missing in May of 2001. Levy's remains were found in Rock Creek Park in Washington, D.C.

Gary Condit was pulled into the Chandra Levy dissappearence case after it was found out that Condit had an extramarital affair with the 23-year-old Washington intern. Although he was questioned three times by authorities about Levy's disappearance, Condit was never named a suspect in the case.

He was all over the news especially FOX. He was treated as if he was guilty. I fact the real killer was found in 2009. That did not stop the Conservative media from roasting him alive and making his and his families lives a living hell. The only thing that made the media ease up was the attack on 911.

Around the same time another Congressman was having trouble but ,you,the public never heard a word.  His mane was Joe Scarborough.  Charles “Joe” Scarborough is an American Talk Radio and Cable news host, as well as an author and former politician. Scarborough currently hosts the MSNBC morning show, Morning Joe. Scarborough formerly served in the United States House of Representatives for a six year term, from 1995 to 2001, as a Republican from the 1st district of Florida. Into his fourth term as congressman; however, Scarborough announced his desire to spend more time with his children; the resignation came five months into his fourth term in Congress. In addition to this somewhat unexpected resignation, Scarborough was at the forefront of a fairly bizarre scandal in the same year as the Gary Condid affair was going on.


On July 20 of 2001, Joe Scarborough’s constituent services coordinator, Lori Klausutis, a 28 year old, died after striking her head on Scarborough’s desk. Klausutis fatal injury occurred when the young woman fainted and struck her head, while she was alone in Scarborough’s Fort Walton Beach, Florida office. According to the former congressman, following reports of the young woman’s death, widespread allegations were attached to Scarborough for precipitating the death or being directly involved in it.

Although there was no evidence that linked the former congressmen to the death of the young employee, the Scarborough scandal picked up intensity, when in 2003, Scarborough made some ill-advised jokes and comments about the incident with Don Imus. In the upcoming years, the Joe Scarborough scandal did not directly revolve the allegations that the former congressman was responsible for the death, but around his distasteful comments concerning the incident. Throughout 2004, the Joe Scarborough scandal was the subject of a public dispute between the former congressman and infamous filmmaker Michael Moore. Since this time, a few employees of MSNBC have been terminated for mentioning the Joe Scarborough scandal on air or through their respective Twitter feeds. Scarborough was never formally charged for the incident, nor was he investigated; Joe Scarborough was not around during the time of the death and post-humorous studies on the young girl’s body found that her fainting spell and the blow to the head was the true cause of death

So the media gave Gary Condit a rough time but never covered or mentioned the Scarborough affair.
The media is considered liberal? I don't think so. I would also like to know why people that bring it up are fired. What is so special about Morning Joe?
