Cenk Uygur Crying Foul Blames The White House For His Short Lived Career At MSNBC
Cenk feels that the White House is behind the coup detat of his reign as a decorated talk show host but of course he can't produce any evidence of such accusations except manufacture it as usual..
http://www.dailykos.com/story/2011/7/21/996940/-
Can't take personal responsibility like a republican.. blame it on President Obama.
As If M$M would do anything to mess with their bottom line or takes orders from a DEMOCRATIC President.
