On Thursday morning, MSNBC's Joe Scarborough hilariously thanked his own network on air for ditching his more liberal colleagues in their recent move toward a more news-focused broadcast day. "Thank you, Andy. Thank you very much," said Joe, hands together in gratitude.

The gang were discussing recent poll results, and the question came up about what were the worst negatives the host himself faced. His top answer was the network itself. From Newsbusters:

JOE: What's the first thing you think of when you think of Joe Scarborough. And then you have to sit there and read the sentences, and you go oh, my God!

MIKA BRZEZINSKI: How did you do? What were some of the worst?

JOE: He works for MSNBC. That was always the worst. Not any more, though, because things have changed. Thank you, Andy. That was the past, this is the now. Thank you, very much.

Al Sharpton has just been relegated to Sunday morning, losing his weekday spot for Prompter Nation. Previous bootees include Ed Schultz and Alex Wagner.

Joe may welcome the chance to be on a less rabidly leftist network, but the news isn't all good (so to speak). With hosts like Thomas Roberts moving in, Joe may not want to pop the bubbly just yet.
