Update at end: Rick Sanchez responds to this post

On yesterday's CNN Newsroom, anchor Susan Roesgen reported on cities ranked by Twitter usage. Speaking with co-anchor T.J. Holmes, Roesgen introduced colleague Rick Sanchez's name toward the end of the item:

ROESGEN: Yes, Chicago's number three. You know why? Because in this new result, it says that the guy in Chicago who twitters the most, like 12,000 people...

HOLMES: Oh, yes.

ROESGEN: ... he writes about things like what the back of the cab smelled like when he took -- this is why it's insane.

HOLMES: Those are little things.

ROESGEN: OK.

HOLMES: But you're just getting tidbits of information, you're giving people updates about you.

ROESGEN: Yes, well -- OK, Rick Sanchez.

HOLMES: Hey, Rick has a heck of a following with that twittering. Don't insult his viewers.

Class? Well, I think you’re about 60 percent on target.

Sanchez should have spent the last 10 years in prison for manslaughter. Google it. Drunk driving killing. He is a repulsive prick. He even accused Lou Dobbs of hating Mexicans—until Lou reminded the twit that his own WIFE was Mexican, and her Mexican parents lived with them in his NJ house.

The only thing I remember about Sanchez is how Jon Stewart made fun of him for allowing himself to be tasered.

Stewart played the segment in slow motion and said Sanchez sounded like Jabba The Hut.

Somebody with more time should YouTube it.
