Kim Kardashian's selfie book stuns MSNBC hosts: This is 'why we're in decline'

MSNBC's Morning Joe crew was left speechless Wednesday after viewing a clip of professional celebrity Kim Kardashian discussing her new book, Selfish. (The book, a compendium of Kardashian's selfies, is going for $13.21 at Barnes & Noble's online store.) After a long pause punctuated by mumbling and sighs, co-host Mika Brzezinski chimed in: "And we wonder why we're in decline."
