MSNBC: Setting New Standards

 Albeit, low standards.

 Apparently Martin Bashir is too liberal for MSNBC.  He resigned was fired today.

MSNBC's hosts will have to refrain in the future from voicing their desire to have someone s--t in Sarah Palin's mouth.

Mediaite:

Just over two weeks ago, MSNBC host Martin Bashir delivered a harsh piece of commentary that culminated in the suggestion that someone should “s-h-i-t” in former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin‘s (R-AK) mouth. Bashir offered an abject apology on his next broadcast, but a chorus of critics continued to demand action against the host. After a reported “vacation” for the host earlier this week, Bashir announced, in a statement to Mediaite Wednesday afternoon, that MSNBC and Martin Bashir are parting ways.

MSNBC will now have to find another non-threatening ethnic host to take his place.
