CNN Axes Soledad O’Brien Because Her Audience Was “Too Ethnic?”

” “They fired her for attracting too many minority viewers? And I thought Norman Lear changed television!!!! What the hell kind of retrograde backward-ass outfit is CNN running over there?! I haven’t seen this kind of outright racist thuggery since last night, ’round about 7:30, down by the Gatherin’ Bole at Skeeter’s Haller.”
If you ever wonder how in the hell Piers Morgan manages to stay on with his dollar-store ratings, well: Not too ethnic, if you know what I mean.”

Of course, “too ethnic” must be it. It couldn’t be that she sucks and doesn’t have an uttered thought that wasn’t culled from Media Matters talking points. Oh, wait, those would be reasons CNN would KEEP her.
Must be the vodka tonics she needed after being bested by John Sununu at every turn.
