MSNBC's as yet unrealized problem: They will be unable to fire Al Sharpton.
one man's opinion...

Posted on 04/01/2012 6:55:33 PM PDT by ken5050

As baseball hall-of-fame member Satchel Paige once famously noted, "...the light at the end of the tunnel may be a train coming straight at you in the opposite direction..."

The suits running MSNBC, and the bigger suits they report to at NBC and Comcast, have absolutely no idea how the insipid decision to hire Al Sharpton, and give him his own platform nightly at 6PM, will soon come back to bite them all on their collective asses, big time.

Remember too, MS is Microsoft. I smell a 50 billion dollar lawsuit coming up soon.

Yes, Never have understood that! How could Microsoft become involved in such a loser. I understand that they are a Liberal organization but really when you are providing software for the country, can’t they at least pretend to be middle of the ground on politics. Maybe it’s time to move to Linux...heh.

This is one of the reasons I thought NBC gave Palin the show for the week. This way the race mangers will see Palin and somehow link her to all of this.

She better watch what she says this week.

Screw NBC and everybody associated with it. Sharpton used and promoted and perpetuated the Tawana Brawley hoax to smear an innocent police officer and make himself, as Sharpton himself put it, “The biggest n***** in New York!”.

NBC hired this guy with their eyes wide open and now that scumbag Democrat network deserves to reap exactly what it sowed.

I wonder if anyone has a list of their sponsors? Turnabout is fair play.

She is a fool to take that gig. But since she apparently did, one thing is for sure - - she better steer way clear of Matt Lauer, because...

Matt Lauer is a lying scumbag (must-see video)

“There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs-partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays.

Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.

ROFLMA0!!
This could well be the first recorded instance of an albatross (aka like Sharpton a gooney bird) coming home to roost.
The irony is simply overwhelming!
