CNN host and Newsweek/The Daily Beast columnist Howard Kurtz laid into MSNBC anchor Tamron Hall for cutting off a guest's mic on her Friday show.

Hall asked guest Tim Carney to weigh in on the report of GOP candidate Mitt Romney's bullying incidents in prep school. Before answering the question, Carney charged that Hall and her colleagues in the media were hyping up the story. That set Hall off. After smacking him down for a minute, she cut off his mic. "You're not gonna come on and insult me," she said to Carney.

After replaying the clip, Kurtz defended Carney, saying that all he did was "challenge her coverage of the report on Mitt Romney." Kurtz added, "It was Tamron Hall who was being insulting by silencing him."

Kurtz believed that it was "perfectly acceptable" for Carney to state that in his opinion, the story was being hyped up by the media. "Does Hall only want guests that agree with her handling of every story?" Kurtz wondered.

Again, this is just common f'ing sense. Anyone who watched this hack piece realized what a joke Tamron Hall is. Clearly, she's another example of the failure that is Affirmative Action.

I don't think we need Kurtz or CNN to tell us this.

This is typical of liberals. You said something they don't agree with? They will do their best to revoke your 1st amendment right.

Worse than that... He was attacking and exposing her tactics and technique. That not only destroys her point, but the entire template of her and others' programs on MSNBC. I figure the guys yelling in her ear piece had as much to do with chopping off that interview as Tamron did.

When folks make identical observations about Maddow, is it the Angry Black Guy Syndrome at play? OTOH, how about when similar observations are made of Rush, Hannity, Santorum, Bachmann, Palin, etc. . . . . is that Angry Black Man Syndrome?

CNN is upset that MSNBC has stolen all of their viewers. They are in fact, mad.

That prick was on DR, today. He was very polite to DR, a man. I guess he thought he could bully Tamron. Think again.

Anyone who watches her program know that she has more dignity in her pinky than any GOP mouthpiece.

Anyone who watches MSNBC for news information is a fool.

the network is a hack machine...they are last in ratings for a reason.

They don't report news...they actually try to shovel it out of their ideology

He didn't try to bully Tamron. He pulled back the curtain and showed everyone what they were watching: A faux news network that was running a silly story about Mitt Romey in high school, then running an even sillier story about Romney's "reaction" to the story.

She didn't like what he did so SHE bullied him.

Tamron Hall is the bully in this story.
