Good For CNN

Rick Sanchez called Jon Stewart a 'bigot' and essentially said that modern-day Jews don't face discrimination.

CNN took all of a day to fire him.  

Sometimes the good guys win.

For the record, having watched the Daily Show since Jon Stewart took it over, I can say that there is no more anti-racist, fair or balanced news reporter on the air.  He calls everyone out, not only those who share his philosophy.  If everyone who reported on the news was as unbiased as he is, the world would be a far better place.

I just commented on another post about this.

The bizarre beliefs about Jews being non-human, baby eating, controlling the banks are very much alive. Groups like Stormfront are still very much active. And covert bigotry against Jews still continue. All one has to do is surf the web, and it will be there somewhere. (I have no idea how many comments or entries I have reported for antisemetism on other sites)
