    I'm sure ABC, NBC, CNN & MSNBC are in a bidding war for her right now. They might make her change her name but that's it.

    Margot has not given her comments a free pass. Where is all this hyperbole coming from? You may want to read her posts again. The opposite is true.

    Wow, you are just looking for people to hate today, aren't you? Zeleny was obviously not saying anything negative, unlike the woman in the OP.

    CBS fired a legal executive Monday after she wrote on Facebook that she was not "sympathetic" to the victims of the mass shooting in Las Vegas." -- the key is "legal" not executive... That jerk was not a journalist or a daily talking head.

    I have been on several boards today and the usual NRA haters and gun bashers have been saying the same thing as that Leftwing Attorney who clearly was a hard core hillary supporter

    Yes, but there is irony involved in this as well, since she was only giving expression to what the average CBS personality thinks anyway. CBS and the other two traditional broadcast networks are very definitely Left-Allied and essentially work for the DNC. So the super-duper irony is that an executive decision to fire the employee is one wherein they HAD to fire her for image reasons when in reality she merely said what they all believe anyway. Sweet!

    Since CBS pretty much openly works for the DNC it must have hurt the CBS executives to have to fire her for public relations reasons when privately they all agree with her.

    Ummmm . . . the irony there is that her statement WAS Politically Correct leftism. She got fired for saying PUBLICLY what those CBS executives no doubt muttered privately; but according to how the Left have degenerated over the past three quarters of a decade she definitely was being leftist P.C.

    I'm not sure MSNBC has a history of hiring people who wish death on groups of people or cheer the deaths of people they disagree with politically. Who on their staff did what this woman did?

    Actually she got fired for saying publicly the sort of things that most who work at CBS likely say privately . . . meaning off camera or among themselves. You are NOT going to be openly Right of Center at any of the traditional broadcast networks and get anywhere in the companies; and that's been the reality of employment there for at least the last eight and a half years.

    Well obviously, but then again that's just another way of saying either CNN or MSNBC.

    lol your logical contortions are amusing. This forum is anonymous...have any libs agreed?
    That's as idiotic as claiming this is what all middle aged white men secretly dream of doing.

    She deserves to be fired and should be like the other side with her view... At least Hannity and Watters World will have some "Breaking News" for the next few days... Sure they will que the California Antifa riots from February right along side it while at the same time showing the Trump Praying for the lost people.

    Thank God it wasn't a FOX news network Executive over a Rap concert. If it was, we would be discussing his right to FREE Speech and how the left don't understand the 1st amendment.

    Don't they have personal conduct clauses? Besides, they're not being fired, they're being cut.

    Our leftists need time. In a couple of days many of them will have consumed enough bullet points from CNN, MSNBC, and The Huffington Post to pretty much be imitating her. It's not as if we have not seen them do that sort of thing on forums in times past.
