				Mike Barnicle has been on Joe Scarborough's show too much for my liking, and he even hosted it last week.  So I thought everybody should know something  about his background.  He was fired from the Boston Globe for a long pattern of plagiarizing and just plain making things up.  
 
 
I'm not sure how much exposure this got in the rest of the nation, but I figure people should know what he's really about.  The Boston Herald hired him.  It definately brought  down my view of the Herald, as I can't see why anyone would allow this person to work for them.
 
 
Here's a story that chronicles alot of his misdeeds.  It was written shortly before he got fired, but goes pretty in depth.

Scarborough Country is the only decent show on msnbc, and it makes my blood boil when I see him on it. _________________ John Kerry - Why are you afraid to sign Form 180 and release ALL of your military records?
