CBS has parted ways with one of the company’s top lawyers after she said she is “not even sympathetic” to victims of the Las Vegas shooting because “country music fans often are Republican,” when discussing the tragic mass shooting that occurred in Las Vegas late Sunday night.

A Message from Volo The 2018 Volvo XC90 Our idea of luxury. “This individual, who was with us for approximately one year, violated the standards of our company and is no longer an employee of CBS. Her views as expressed on social media are deeply unacceptable to all of us at CBS. Our hearts go out to the victims in Las Vegas and their families,” a CBS spokeswoman told Fox News.

Hayley Geftman-Gold, the network's now-former vice president and senior counsel, took to Facebook after a gunman opened fire at the Route 91 Harvest Music Festival in Las Vegas, killing at least 58 people and sending more than 500 others to hospitals.

Well, as much as I disagree with them on the usual slant, they did the right thing. People who talk sh=% about victims of terrorism make the networks and other people look bad. The person should be possibly worse than fired for the disrespect to the families of those murdered people.

Yes, me too. The rest of the Ministry of Propaganda think the same way, they just don’t want it known.

“I am surprised that they did go ahead and fire her.”

Maybe because they see what’s happening to the once-powerful NFL.

Wow!!! Glade to see this quick action... Last time I heard a company taking such an action was the radio station that fired Johnny Fever!

It was probably combined with some other dumb counsel she gave CBS . . . like, maybe, “we need to encourage the NFL players that kneel - it will help our ratings!”

I’m sure many Democrats are wondering what her plans are for November 2020.

There is no room for hateful, mean spirited people in leadership positions. CBS showed good leadership and hopefully will not give her any type recommendations for any future position. This mean spirited person requires therapy.

They agree with her but what she said hurts the bottom line so she has to go. CYA in action.
