Dumb b*tch found out the shooter was white, I’d bet. She thought she was praising a black cop-killer.

Only sorry for getting caught!

This is exactly what liberal socialist think and believe in their hearts!

Take heed America, this is what we are up against.

Keep your powder dry, you will need it!

A note to "veteran news anchor" Fredricka:

How about you just report the news instead of broadcasting your own opinion? Seems that way, you'd avoid this kind of trouble in the future.

Actually, I think Fredricka is just a function of the Peter Principle. She had no clue that she was saying anything extremely offensive (no, I did not watch the video...but based on cultural norms today...).

Ditto. An apology from a liberal is about as sincere as "you're so huge" from a $50 hooker.

Once in a while, they reveal their true colors. The liberal media must make a continuous and conscious effort to conceal its unrelenting hatred of America.

Not good enough. She needs to be gone, like all that have lost their jibs over the McKinney pool, Baltimore, Ferguson, and Trayvon.

She didn’t apologize. She just tried to excuse herself.

It is not misspeaking when you say what you really think.

This is how CNN tests to see if anyone is watching the channel.

Most likely. She black or white or rachel-skinned?

You would think that stupid liberals would put their brain in gear before opening their mouths.
