Barnicle complained about caps on salaries for bank execs without noting his wife is one

SUMMARY: Discussing the Obama administration's plan to cap salaries for executives at banks that received federal assistance, Mike Barnicle asserted on Morning Joe: "It's fun holding [the banks] up and saying they can only ... make 500 grand a year if they're going to take federal money." But he did not disclose that his wife is the chief marketing officer and Northeast president of Bank of America, which reportedly was among "five of the biggest companies" to receive federal bailout funds.
