CNN released this statement today:
“Rick Sanchez is no longer with the company. We thank Rick for his years of service and we wish him well.“
They will broadcast CNN Newsroom from 3-5pm for the foreseeable future.
Here’s more from the story earlier today: CNN’s Rick Sanchez is not happy with being made fun of constantly on The Daily Show and Colbert Report. It is from this jumping off point that he absolutely unleashed on Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert, and at times his own network, on Pete Dominick’s satellite radio show yesterday.
The big takeaway – Sanchez calls Stewart “a bigot,” then walks it back a bit, and he implies CNN is run by Jews.
This will get my only, “tell us what you really feel” comment of the day.
Well done!
I doubt rich Sanchez speaks spanish fluently enough to work at Telemundo.
No problem. Say it like it is and quit living these lies.
One of the shocking discoveries for me when I dove into the Left’s racial diversity doctrines to find out why the hate only gets worse in America, was that there is a common thread of hatred beyond just hatred of White people. There is a special hatred and blame for “greedy” Jewish people in all the left wing tribal doctrines.
That Steward ridiculed Sanchez on his program was bad; that Steward is a “predator” Jewish man who made fun of Sanchez was a call to diversity race war. Sanchez is a product of liberal diversity....diversity is our strength...yeah. /s/
a racist like all liberals.
“In the land of the tolerant,” said Warren Hellman in yesterday’s WSJ interview, “the intolerant are king.”
Seen one seen them all.
It was either him or Anderson Cooper, some dweeb. It happened after that Chilean earthquake when they were wondering about a tsunami
Good riddance to this despicable little turd!
Welcome to the Republican Party, Rick!
I used to work at WSVN and knew him a little. My theory is he was pissed that he was taken off prime-time the day before, where he was filling in. When he was in Miami, his Cuban heritage no doubt helped him get and keep his job, and probably again on the national level. It’s funny that people can have such a warped view of their own personal situation.
The following paragraph describing Rick Sanchez' December 10, 1990 DUI hit-and-run was scrubbed from Wikipedia about a year ago (2009). I saved this information before it was "mysteriously" deleted and printed it out:
DUI
On December 10, 1990, (Rick) Sanchez struck a pedestrian, Jeffrey Smuzinick, with his car on a residential street near Dolphin Stadium after Smuzinick darted into the road. Smuzinick was paralyzed and eventually died in an assisted living facility in 1995. Sanchez, who had just left an NFL football game with his father (and left the scene of the accident), was not charged with causing the accident, but was charged with and pleaded no contest to DUI. Sanchez, whom a Metro-Dade police officer said "smelled strongly of alcohol," first stopped his car but then later left the scene. A blood test to determine Sanchez's sobriety was not administered until an hour and fifteen minutes after the collision. Sanchez at first said he had consumed no alcohol the night of the accident. His attorney, Richard Essen, later said Rick returned home and had "a couple of drinks to calm his nerves" before returning to the scene. Though Sanchez says he tried to aid Smuzinick at the scene of the accident and flag down motorists, eyewitnesses claim the anchorman ignored the injured man and loudly told police and bystanders that blood tests were pointless, and would hurt his public image.
Here are the sources for the above paragraph which was deleted from Rick Sanchez’s Wikipedia page on 10/14/09 between 8:30pm and 9:15pm ET:

Excerpts from the Observer article above:
Mr. Sanchez had already survived what would ordinarily be a career-killer*. While leaving a Miami Dolphins game with his father in 1990, Mr. Sanchez struck a drunken pedestrian, who later died of his injuries. According to police, Mr. Sanchez’s own blood-alcohol level was above the legal limit, and he left the scene before returning. He ultimately pleaded no contest to a D.U.I. charge, but avoided jail time, and even remained on the air.
Asked about the incident, Mr. Sanchez’s Ron Burgundy jocularity vanished in an instant. “I don’t see where that has anything to do with anything,” he said, and called the inquiry “a hatchet question.”
He soon regained his cool though. “Was it an unfortunate experience? Yes. Was it a learning experience? Absolutely. Do I wish it hadn’t happened? Of course,” he allowed. “I was wrong, because I had a couple of cocktails, because I was over the legal limit,” he went on. “It could have happened to anybody. … There were probably a lot of other people leaving the stadium that had had a couple of beers as well.”
Rick Sanchez is a lying, scum-sucking POS. Hope he gets everything he "deserves" in life...
Well. Bye.
There is only skin deep meaning and pride and skin deep hatred in the Left’s concept of tolerance. I can’t believe they have gotten away with creating a whole new formal and institutionalized race hate industry for power in this post segregation period. I don’t understand how Americans can be so stupid and evil. That goes double for the White and Jewish targets.
If anyone is interested in learning about Rick's December 10, 1990 DUI hit-and-run "accident", I posted info and links in #274 above.
I can’t stand that guy.
Here’s a video where Ann Coulter destroys him.
