Rick Sanchez Fired From CNN? Come Back, Rick!

Rick Sanchez fired from CNN? Come back Rick! Or, at least that's what some people are saying. In a whirlwind of events that started with an unorthodox interview in which Sanchez called Jon Stewart a bigot and bashed the media industry, claiming it was "ran by Jews."

However, Sanchez has a strong fan base. He's controversial, and fit in quite well with CNN. He believes in illegal immigration - but only if the immigrants are Latino. He's outspoken, and one of Jon Stewart's regular targets.

Over 1,700 people have joined a Facebook page to bring Rick Sanchez back. Some people say they are even boycotting CNN until he's back in the game. Somehow, I don't think that these viewers will be tuning in to FOX.

They're more likely to be an MSNBC crowd.

Rick Sanchez Fired by CNN About Jon Stewart Comments

Rick Sanchez fired by CNN? After Jon Stewart Bigot comments, Sanchez was let go. Perhaps it wasn’t the anger he expressed towards one of America’s favorite political comedians, perhaps it’s the fact that he called out his network and said that it was ran by a bunch of Jews. That’s probably the kicker in this case.

Of course, Stewart will get the last laugh and he’s already taunted his nemesis. However, don’t be surprised if the former CNN newscaster heads out to Stewart’s show as a guest. I think he will have plenty of time on his hands.

The words were expressed during a Sirius Radio interview, and they lead to the ultimate dismissal of the former CNN correspondent. It’s an unfortunate thing for him, but he should know better than to express negative thoughts and racial slurs about other TV personalities and the entertainment industry in general.
