During the banter on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” today, host Joe Scarborough called Hillary Clinton’s appearance “stunning” and said her campaign “wrote the questions.”

“She is asked on Face The Nation about who — she said the State Department authorized it (personal email use) — (host John) Dickerson didn’t ask a follow up, ‘Who at the State Department?'”

“That’s because the campaign did not allow that,” co-host Mika Brzezinski interjected We know this interview was set up so that certain questions on foreign policy were required for a certain amount of time. And then they could go into emails for a certain amount of time. Believe me, it was textbook, planned out — you can see Jen Palmieri, everybody else all over this interview.”

She she was challenged, she pushed back, “I do know it happens,” insisting Clinton’s appearances on “Morning Joe” ceased because “we were not controlled.”

When Scarborough began bringing up sources at CBS News, Brzezinski injected, “And they cut deals.”
