After her career appeared dead after she was dropped by CBS News, Mika Brzezinski is now co-hosting “Morning Joe” on MSNBC, appearing on radio and writing books. Offering opinions is what’s making her a hot commodity, the Washington Post says. “I’ve been in a box as a journalist for 20 years,” Brzezinski tells the paper. “That is a very safe and lazy place to be. You can hide behind objectivity. It is much harder to put yourself out there.”
