FNC anchor Chris Wallace was a topic of conversation during the final segment of Hardball this afternoon on MSNBC. Chris Matthews played the clip of Wallace chastising the "two hours of Obama bashing" on Fox & Friends on Friday, and complimented the anchor for speaking up.

The MSNBC panel of Norah O'Donnell, Eugene Robinson and Chuck Todd were complimentary of Wallace's attempt to tone down the debate during the three-minute segment.

"Congratulations to Chris Wallace for standing up to those around you. I always like somebody who's willing to take up others around them," Matthews concluded. Then, smiling, he said, "I sometimes try it," as O'Donnell laughed in the background.
