Joe Madison: Martin Bashir should have been fired it's about decency

Sorry I disagree TOTALLY!!! maybe a months long suspension(and that's a stretch) but fired.MSNBC is to PC for my taste and I think this will hurt there ratings.It seems like all the progressives who are out spoken on rethugs seem to get canned from that network

Besides why should his words matter on that issue when he is paid by MSNBC? It shows that Joe Madison doesn't have a backbone.

He's protecting his own paycheck. Sadly, Joe is spouting the company line to protect his own financial interest.

I Listen to Madison every morning and he's always ranting about how people mainly us African Americans don't do anything to stand up to the right wing racist attacks on us and the President but yet he's being politically correct on Martin Bashir over stupid Palins comments on slavery GO FIGURE

Starting with the entire staff of anchors of Fox, along with all of hate radio.

to gun fights. This kind stuff happens daily on Fox (let alone Rush, Michael Reagan, Hannity, etc. etc.) and they get rewarded and high-fived, we want to play nice fire them. 'Liberal" CBS fired Rather and kept the rightie bimbo (on leave), go figure.

Here's a hint, you can out-nice them but you will lose again and again.
