Rick Sanchez is missing...
...a lot of his brain cells, and also missed the bus to his show today.

oiy!

oh to be a fly on the wall right now.

"Rick, you stupid asshole, wtf?" says his boss. (I have flies that work for me, only costs me a pork chop once a year)

1. If his boss hasn't fired him yet...
His boss needs fired.

CNN Anchor Blasts Jews in the Media

Ben Smith notes CNN's Rick Sanchez, "seething with class and ethnic resentment" in discussing the Daily Show's Jon Stewart, "got himself in what seems to me pretty serious trouble today in a radio interview."

Said Sanchez: "I'm telling you that everybody who runs CNN is a lot like Stewart, and a lot of people who run all the other networks are a lot like Stewart, and to imply that somehow they, the people in this country who are Jewish, are an oppressed minority? Yeah."

8. Makes you wonder.... that supid? or that suicidal?
He HAD to know what this would do to his career at CNN, saying this crap... :shrug:

Like watching a trainwreck in slow motion.

10. But FAUX and RW radio is gonna love him. I listened to the interview and
the bigotry and anti-semitism just oozed from every vocal eruption of Sanchez.

Not to mention the obvious envy.

11. I think he lost his marbles for a second and said what he really
thought; bet he wishes he could undo this.

12. I feel somewhat bad about this, Sanchez did a couple of decent interviews
asking questions no one else would of Ensign and others.

I don't know much about him except from clips I"ve seen on the Internets but some of them have been good.

Pretty stupid here though.

16. and Paul Begala
I still curse the day when CNN canceled his show Crossfire, where
the rupugs were getting scewered relentlessly on that program, (probably
why the canceled it.)

19. Begala has so much smarts/wit. But he backs down way too often.
I'm still considering whether I actually like him.
But... as far as Democratic existence on CNN, he's sort of ok, as ok as they allow him to be I guess.

24. funny you would bring up why they cancelled Crossfire
find the youtube of Jon's appearance on the show.


(I disagree that republicans got a hard time on the show. Everyone just screamed at each other and they all came away thinking they'd won.)

18. SLightly OT, but is anyone familiar with Pete Dominick
on whose show I understand the train wreck happened? I listen to him on my faithful satellite radio for roughly 1/2 an hour when I leave work, I wish I could listen to the whole 3 hour show. And the more I listen, the more I fall in love :-). The guyis absolutely GREAT! Smart, funny, willing to listen to people that think differently and respectful as long as they do not get out of bouns, and I could go on and on. I wish CNN or whoever would give him a real show, for the last several months he had a couple of minutes at the very end of John King's show, a complete waste of his talents.

Curious if anybody here shares my enthusism for Pete...

20. I just know Pete from this fiasco
and he did seem to handle things very well. Hard knocks toward Sanchez but not outright outraged at that Stupdio.

21. If you have a satellite radio
and can listen to him in the afternoon, give him a try for a few days, you won't be sorry.
