CNN CEO Agrees with Jon Stewart, Fires Tucker Carlson

CNN CEO Jonathon Klein didn’t go so far as to publicly call Tucker Carlson a dick, but he did describe himself as “coming down more firmly in the Jon Stewart camp” in announcing the firing of his bow-tied Crossfire shouting head: CNN dumps Tucker Carlson. Klein characterized the dismissal as part of a larger effort to treat the audience with more “respect.”

Yay.

    I agree. Yay.

    Unfortunately Carlson is (arguably) one of the least objectionable wingnuts out there. He is at least occasionally able to recognize the mindless hypocrisy and idiocy of the right (http://tinyurl.com/486eh).

    Dubya could feed puppies through a woodchipper on the White House lawn and Hannity, Limbaugh and O’Reilly wouldn’t say “boo”.

    These are the really dangerous liars.

    A small ray of light filters through the far right media darkness?

    Is that the Guy with weird red clip on Bow Ties, about in the 30’s and dirty Brown hair in a mess? I thought he was weird wearing clip on bow ties.

    Don’t know if his Old Fashioned Mama made him wear it, or he is plain Schziophrenic. Weird or not, he gotta go. I agree.

    Crazy like Bush, sad to see him go first, I would rather see Bush go First. Making the List of Numbero One Crazy.
