Hey MSNBC, I'm Not Sure That Was a Good Pick?
/By now you more than likely know that ABC sacked racist Rosanne Barr after she tweeted another (yes another) racist tweet.
ABC was quick to pull the plug and although you can question the network's hiring of her in the first place, you have to give them credit for acting so quickly on latest incident.
Barr made the racist comments about former top Obama administration advisor Valerie Jarrett.
Jarret talked to MSNBC’s town hall event, “Everyday Racism in America" and took the high road, which is a road we don't think Barr has ever been on.
“Tone does start at the top, and we like to look up to our President and feel as though he reflects the values of our country. But I also think that every individual citizen has a responsibility too, and it’s up to all of us to push back. Our government is only going to be as good as we make it be. And as Reverend always taught me, you have to be– people on the inside have to push hard and people on the outside have to listen,” she said on MSNBC's Town Hall.
But, let's get back to MSNBC's “Everyday Racism in America."
The show was moderated by MSNBC hosts Chris Hayes and Joy Reid, along with Rev. Al Sharpton.
The very say Joy Reid that was called out for posting homophobic rants on her former blog. The very same Joy Reid that then claimed that her blog was hacked, despite the fact that no evidence shows that to be the case.
Of all the people at MSNBC, is this really the person you want talking about posts made by Rosanne Barr?
What about the posts made by Joy Reid?
Just asking...
