He should get his job back. He didn't say anything that awful and he apologized for it. They should give him the slot currently occupied by Ronan Farrow, who is so boring that watching paint dry is more interesting.

MSNBC management should not have forced him out, imho. The media is performing a public service. Have they forgotten their role in a free and democratic society? Not free from the need to make a profit, that's part of it, execs, program managers and nay sayers need to chill about ratings and spend a few dollars on talent.
