CNN's media reporter, Dylan Byers, is implying that Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski watched election returns with Donald Trump last night in New Hampshire. That is not true.

The Morning Joe hosts instead did what anchors are supposed to do -- they interviewed the candidate's senior staff to get background information on their strategy in New Hampshire, and on their campaign's plans moving forward in South Carolina. The staff then invited the hosts to get Mr. Trump's reaction to the victory. That discussion lasted less than five minutes. Other networks were allowed interviews as well.

It should be noted that Morning Joe is off to a great start in this election year. In January, the show had 28% more viewers than CNN's morning show last month. And thus far in February, more people are watching Morning Joe than CNN.
