This morning during her panel discussion on the Obama tape and Derrick Bell, Soledad O'Brien lost control of her show and became very upset towards Breitbart.com's Joel Pollack.

The reason why wasn't disclosed: O'Brien was a huge fan of Derrick Bell.

Thanks, Andrew!!!!!!

More proof of what a disgusting leftist freak show the mass media is. They will slant the news for Obama/Democrats and do anything for Obama/Democrats

[dennisw]

lol lol

[dennisw]

What percentage of multiracial folks like her and Obama are so conflicted and self loathing by half

With a name like Soledad her folks must have been radicals

Orale WD! As in Soledad prison in California where (Black Panther?) George Jackson got killed by a prison guard and Bob Dylan wrote a song about this.
Many bi-racial people get along just fine. But many others are messed up like Obama thinking "I wish I was all white" or "I wish I was all Black" depending on what day or week it was. Obama settled down eventually into a black identity. When this demagogue touched down in Chicago he didn't even know that he had to belong to a black church to have any kind of political credibility in the "community". Marrying ugly ol Moochelle gave him some black street cred but still he lost a Congressional election in 2000 to Bobby Rush (ex-Black Panther) who out blacked him.... campaigning that Obama was too effete and not black enough. Not down for the struggle (as Rush has phrased it)

You’ll have to give Soledad credit. She did her best to keep that uppity black girl on the panel quiet.

Communist Goals (1963)

20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policymaking positions.

21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.

In April 2008, she became the first recipient of the Soledad O’Brien Freedom’s Voice Award, an award created in her name by Morehouse School of Medicine. "The award was created to recognize her accomplishments and willingness to be a voice for the voiceless in our society, and her determination to cover stories that might otherwise go untold. It will be given annually to mid-career professionals who serve as catalysts for social change in their given fields."

O'Brien drew criticism from FactCheck.org on September 8, 2008, for falsely asserting, during an interview with a McCain campaign spokesperson, that vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, as Governor of Alaska, had slashed the special education budget by 62%,[14][15] when, in fact, she had increased it. O'Brien was also criticized for these claims by other sources, including the McCain/Palin campaign.

I have to wonder just how smart people have to be to Graduate Harvard

You don't. You just have to be smart/connected/fit the demographic/wealthy enough to get in. I know plenty o' Harvard grads who have told me this point blank.

“What politician that attended Harvard has ever made a positive financial impact on the US Federal Government?”

John Adams. See how far back I had to go?

Soledad:
“Just started re-reading Derrick Bell’s ‘Ethical Ambition’”

umm... what if some other media figure “tweeted” something about reading some other screed that was obviously racist?
Say, “Turner Diaries”?

Seriously. Radical black race hatred is OK for some reason?

[MissMagnolia]

Well they’ve definitely accomplished #21 ... the media is totally INFESTED with ‘the enemies from within’.

THANK YOU! I suspected that there had to be one.

BTW, was it JA 1 or 2?

[Do Not Make Fun Of His Ears]

Thank Breitbart! ;-)

I know nothing about this woman, don’t watch cable news junk, so the Pollac video is the first I have ever seen of her, and by that video it is abundantly clear she is not remotely objective or thinking and frankly an arrogant ass.

The Amy girl on the Panel got it, this woman had no interest, just trying to dismiss and debunk the guy because she didn’t like what he had to say, she clearly misrepresented theory and other things.

IF this is a news reporter, news sure as hell isn’t being reported.

[Buckeye Battle Cry]

Soledad is an idiot who does and says exactly what she is told. She tried to sound smart by repeating what was said into her ear. He totally schooled her for her stupidity, ignorance and racism.

The black woman on the panel (“Amy” whatever) was very fair and accurate in her attack on the mainstream media.

My one serious question is this – WHY was Jay Thomas on that panel. He’s a mediocre actor and stand-up comedian that cannot get any acting or stand-up gigs. The HIGHLIGHT of his career was playing the owner of the “Big Apple Deli” on “Mork and Mindy”. He hasn’t done squat since that show went off the air in the early `80s. This buffoon is on CNN talking about race theory and politics against an educated mind? He looked and sounded as stupid as his career as a stand-up comedian has actually been. He makes the majority of his money now doing voice-overs for commercials. In effect, he gets paid to read words other people put into his mouth. He does not earn a living for actively thinking on his own.

Maybe they can book him to speak at a national brain surgeons convention to opone upon complex surgical procedures. He as qualified to do that as he is to speak to theories of racial justice on CNN. “I’m just looking at your skin - as a white guy.” Pure intellectual brilliance there Jay. I’m stunned and overwhelmed by the depth of your critical thinking and analytical skills. My dog sounds smarter than you when he farts.

Both.

Believe it or not, there was a time that Harvard was pretty conservative. Granted, that was like before 1845 . . .

[Graewoulf]

Back then Harvard was a Church School - - - .

"Soledad O'Brien lost control of her show."

I disagree with the characterization that she "lost" control of her show. She "abdicated" control of her show. She turned into an incoherent raving lunatic, causing her to forfeit control of her show.

I'll have to admit, though, that I have never seen her show before. Thus, I cannot ascertain that she might ALWAYS be an incoherent raving lunatic.

Hey man, he also played Eddie LeBec, Carla's ex-husband and an ex-Boston Bruins goalie on Cheers.

Dude's obviously qualified to talk politics.
