Let's Get This Ignorant Clown Fired

Shall we?


I find it completely reprehensible that MSNBC allowed him to say this on air, and haven't even issued an apology or retraction, let alone FIRED him.  I think it's safe to say that had he made such blatantly false and egregious remarks about any other religion, he would have been reprimanded no-questions-asked.  I am not usually one to get fired up about things like this, I have a pretty good sense of humor about my religion, but this is deeply offensive and such horrific journalism that I'm almost certain it's defamation, by law.  Where is this guy getting his sources?  South Park could give him an exponentially better grasp of the founding of the LDS church for crying out loud, lest he deign to actually use the official Church website as a source.  But hey, if you're going to do a story about someone, you wouldn't interview the actual person...you'd of course use the most outrageous rumors and lies you could dig up and then report them as fact.  Don Imus gets canned for calling a women's basketball team of what 32 people 'nappy headed hoes', but this guy reports unfounded and insulting lies about a religion with 14+ million members and doesn't even get a slap on the wrist? Shenanigans!
