Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that you were.
Like CES I think they had it in mind to fire him for a while before he made that comment, otherwise they wouldn't have agreed to fire him so readily and they would have talked to him first, which they did not do.
Shirley Sherrod got fired without anyone talking to her first, too. I originally thought they had other reasons to fire her, but then they wouldn't have offered to hire her back.
Call me cynical, but it's interesting that both are black as well. It's almost as if someone high up in the government has a particular way he wants blacks to act, and has the power to do something about it when he sees something he dislikes on the media.
Well, maybe Fox will hire him now.

Fox is expanding his commentary role, though his views are generally liberal.
