MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski Has to Leave Set After Finding Out What a "Furry" Is—Watch Now!

Morning Joe co-host has to leave the set when reporting on the illness that swept a Furry convention

Do you want to see a seasoned journalist straight-up abort a segment? Literally just get up and leave the set in the middle of reporting on a story? You, dear friend, have come to the right place.

The folks at MSNBC's Morning Joe were reporting on Chicago's FurFest (a Furry convention) that was hit with an illness epidemic that led to a large-scale evacuation from the hotel. 19 people were sent to the hospital for nausea and dizziness.

And co-host Mika Brzezinski might be next just based on the reaction she has once she discovers exactly what a "furry" is. Apparently her parents didn't include that in the ol' birds and the bees talk.

"You see, honey, sometimes, when two people really love each other and they want to dress up in animal costumes…"

Mika got a quick lesson in furry-ness when she saw the footage of FurFest dance across the screens in the studio. And that, apparently, was all she needed to see. She was out.

Well, it is important to learn something new every day, right? You can say that much, Mika.
