Homophobic slur[edit]

Why are some editors falsely claiming[1][2] that Brzezinski's homophobic remarks about Pompeo were made in a tweet? Politrukki (talk) 22:21, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Supposed "Support" of Donald Trump[edit]

I've noticed this article and Morning Joe's wikipage contain the unsourced claim that Brzezinski "supported" Trump's campaign for president. To my knowledge, Brzezinski and Scarborough were criticized for repeatedly interviewing Trump on their TV show and not for defending his policies or directly endorsing his candidacy. Based on her statements in these Morning Joe interviews I think it's fair to say that Mika Brzezinski did not support Trump at all in 2016, let alone in the same way Laura Ingraham and Sean Hannity did and do now. I've edited this section to remove the phrase "supporter of Trump" entirely, and the subsequent claim that Mika "turned against Trump" after he attacked her on Twitter in 2017. At best, this language violates WP:NPOV. At worst, it conflates repeated and ineffectual interviews with direct political support.

Does anyone have alternate sources criticizing Brzezinski for the same reasons as the Rolling Stone article? I'm not sure if it's too biased/opinionated to present a fair account of the controversy here. ⁂ (talk) 19:12, 19 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
