Not that she's a hard and far righty, but she is too much an independent thinker to survive in that hard left pool. Love her or hate her (I thought she had a decent show at Fox albeit she got a little full of herself at times), she'll be better off somewhere else. NBC not adjusting the shade of their stripes any time soon. She was the only one I could stomach at Fox during prime time as she sometimes said something beyond just the right wing talking points and orchestrated culture wars that O'Reilly and Hannity (and now Ingrahm) spew(ed). Her background as a prosecutor made her a great match to whoever came on (she'd take on more intelligent people than Carlson does) making for an interesting debate. NBC made a mistake in hiring her as a Katie Couric type morning show host as that's not where her talents lay. They were looking for a reason to fire her as her ratings were in the tank and the "blackface" comment gave them a way out. It was a gutless on NBC's part.

njbuff Posted October 31, 2018 Posted October 31, 2018 And that ***** Lemon still has a job? He made one of the biggest racist statements ever told on TV and he still has a job? People have been fired for saying way less.

Roseanne gets *****-canned for comparing Valerie Jarrett's haircut to the Planet of the Apes costumes, Megyn Kelly gets booted for questioning why it's offensive to dress as another race/culture for Halloween, Imus gets canned for referring to nappy hair, but Don Lemon can raise a call to action against white men and it's all good. It seems the core purpose of the left is to advance the war on whiteness. 1

In the end, we have the power not to watch Lemon's terribly rated show, EVER. That (person) Lemon has called Trump every name in the book and we are supposed to listen to someone preaching to his little audience and yet he goes home and takes it up the ass from his WHITE man. Ok, got it. 2

Her "blackface" comment was just an excuse. 2

The message is that even questioning whether something recently labeled taboo is truly offensive should not be permitted. 1

For better or worse, the right gets the hot chicks but tend to overplay them to the extent that they become annoying. Megyn Kelly, Ann Coulter, Tomi whateverhernameis.

Chef Jim Posted October 31, 2018 Posted October 31, 2018 (edited) 14 hours ago, Rob's House said: I got it second hand, but it wouldn't surprise me. It fits the narrative they're pushing right now. I just saw someone post this gem. Edit: Now confirmed. He actually said this: "...we have to stop demonizing people and realize the biggest terror threat in this country is white men, most of them radicalized to the right," So is he that bad with conveying a message? (I've never heard him speak so I have no idea). Based on what he said he thinks that most white men are radicalized to the right?? "We need to stop demonizing people. I'll start. White males are demons!" How to people like this stay employed? Edit: Sorry I didn't meant to be redundant. I just responded before I read all the posts after this.
