CNN's Rick Sanchez: CNN is run by Jews

[AlBell]

Is anyone else expecting to see Rick Sanchez to be on Fox News doing the exact same show he was doing on CNN????????

Or back to a Fox local affiliate in a Latino market.

My bet is he goes into politics likely back in Miami.

Nah.

Dissing his Jewish Overlords isn't enough all by itself to give him any right-wingnut creds, and they've already got a token Hispanic doing his own show.

I have no problem giving Fox a dirty Sanchez.

(Oh sorry, I thought we were talking about Megan Fox.)

The more idiots on Fox News, the better for all of our comedic entertainment needs.

He will probably show up on TV Azteca as Inez Sainz's wardrobe assistant or MSNBC, where he would very much at home with MOM, Matthews, Olbermann & Maddow.

Maybe it's an american-vs-scandinavian 'lost in translation' thingy but I never really got what was so funny with Jon Stewart. He's half as fun as Jay Leno, with similar sarcasm, yet Leno isn't even fun. I did find "Even Stephen" with Colbert amusing though, as he's actually funny... and witty (two qualities neither Leno or Stewart possess, at least not in their attempts to apply comedy).

Postscript to this: Sanchez apparently cracked due to Stewart's ad hominem mocking of him. From what I recall, I saw one segment where Stewart made fun of Sanchez's excitement over receiving a personal twitter message from some prominent person, and asked his viewers to send Sanchez more twitter messages under a "send a twitter to a twit" campaign. That's not particularly clever and is just inflammatory and insulting. I was never a fan of Stewart and his super-canned audience reactions anyway.

I said it before and I'll say it again: Sanchez is not a journalist, he's a Saturday Night Live parody of a journalist. So any mocking he received was a result of his own ineptitude. If you act stupid, someone's probably going to make fun of you because of it.

Um, no. More me getting the gravity of calling a black man, a black president a cotton picker. As some sane people (ie. Not MaGZ) have already pointed out that it doesn't come across like he was trying to be antisemitic but rather just another example of his bumbling incompetency in trying to come across as 'edgy' at failing spectacularly. They were both relatively innocent faux-pas' but they were also both at least as equally offensive, unintentional or not, and the fact that he got sacked for one and not the other is quite startling, I think. I dunno, maybe this was just the final straw and he was actually sacked for cumulative idiocies and general incompetency, in which case fine, I'm making something out of nothing, but on the surface it looks like a pretty raging double-standard.

He wasn't using the term to indicate that Obama picks cotton. He was using the term as one would use "goddamn" or "*******." He's the goddamn president. He's the ******* president. *
