MSNBC's Chris Matthews mocks Hillary Clinton makes Bill Cosby pill joke in unearthed footage
Lawrence O'Donnell
The footage takes place in an Iowa fire station and features two different camera angles. Back in September  video was leaked of fellow MSNBC star  Lawrence O'Donnell  launching into profanity-laced tirades at  his  staff during a taping of  his  show.  He  complained about "insanity in my earpiece" and begging someone to "stop the hammering!"
 O'Donnell 's tirades were first reported by Mediaite  which posted a stitched-together video of the outbursts that lasted more than eight minutes  resulted in the liberal host becoming a punchline for  his  outburst. While the footage of  O'Donnell  was embarrassing  itâs far from making a joke about alleged serial rapist Bill Cosby â and it appears  Matthews  is aware of  his  wrongdoing.
 Matthews  issued a statement to The Cut: âThis was a terrible comment I made in poor taste during the height of the Bill Cosby headlines. I realize thatâs no excuse. I deeply regret it and Iâm sorry.â
The Cut said  Matthews  has a long history of derogatory comments about Clinton  and  he  once called her witchy " "anti-male" and "uppity " according to Jezebel.
MSNBC recently admitted that  Matthews  had settled with a former producer who accused  him  of sexual harassment. In fact  NBC News and MSNBC have dealt with a variety of other high-profile issues lately.
