    I’m a little surprised CNN fired him. They got bought out by shitheads and it’s sole purpose now is to masquerade as news while being the thinnest end of the wedge for nazi conservative bullshit.

    This guy’s tactical mistake was forgetting to be gentlemanly and news anchorly about it.

      CNN loves mainstreaming guys like Tucker Carlson, Glenn Beck, and Eric Erickson to collect the wingnut welfare checks that come with them.

      It’s only when they start costing more than they bring in that they get cut loose. Then they roll out new “respectable” conservative front men to replace the old ones.
