How does a slobbering leftist hack get fired from CNN?

Possibly due to a vast surplus of them.

Soledad O’Brien should be around in public to show how bad democrats can reach new levels.

The new head Jeff zucker is a Obama stooge too .
In 2000 ,he was leaving NBC to work for Al Gore at the WH !
Jeff and his wife had there little kids doing those creep Nazi kid obana chanting propaganda films in 2008 .

I think Soledad had a drug and drinking problem that got her canned since her far left SF Bay Area politics fit Zucker left wing nutism!

Not a big fan of Soledad, but the two happiest days of my wife’s broadcast career were the day she got picked up for a morning drive show. And the day she left tHe morning drive show. The hours are murder. You NEVER get enough sleep.

If she had called herself Maria, she would never have gone anywhere professionally. It seems to me she exploited the coincidental similarity of her name and a bloody prison riot to afford her entrée to the ideologically correct set.

That’s going to be tough, you can’t get much more solitude than you do at CNN.

"After reports that Soledad O'Brien recently was booted from her morning show, “Starting Point,” the CNN anchor is saying she’s “really happy” with the way things turned out..."

What a coincidence -- I feel exactly the same way!

Now, there's even less of a chance that I'll run across her show as I conscientiously try to avoid having CNN tuned-in on my TV as I channel-surf...

The Justice Department uses MSNBC to hide people in the witness protection program.

Win or lose is her business but I applaud her for taking a decision to be positive.

The reason CNN fired her is the only question I have. Was she not liberal enough or was she too liberal. I saw her a few times and she appeared to me to be someone who could face reality when it was correctly presented.

In the short article, she comments on several negatives, and calls them a win-win?

“How does a slobbering leftist hack get fired from CNN?”

Pretty easy actually. Management puts on a show with an untalened hack who is in the toilet for Obama and when the show fulfills the prophecy from everyday Republicans that it is gong to fail miserably and it does, they throw the hack under the bus. Wash, rinse and repeat.

What CNN needs is a two hour political show from 7pm to 9pm featuring Monica Crowley, Ann Coulter and Laura Ingraham. Call it Solid Gold. Every week, for one night add a fourth chair for the conservative point of view and a fifth chair for the liberal counterpoint.

First topic would be getting rid of Affirmatve Action. Herman Cain against Al Sharpton.

Apparently being caught lying too many times and low ratings can get you fired even at CNN.

You should be more like that neighbor. He had the right attitude and that is why he was a winner at life. Why sit on the sidelines and complain about life and be jealous of people who are more productive than you? Life hands everyone problems, but this guy figured out how to turn a problem into a solution.
