Seems a bit racist to me.

She did those installments of Black in America on CNN. Maybe the viewers were confused by her last name. Too Irish? /s

She just couldn’t get any audience to pay for the bills. End of story.

Anderson Cooper ends up going away eventually too. CNN really has a major problem, and isn’t even in the same league anymore with Fox News, or the Comedy Channel. In fact....the Amish Mafia is pulling better numbers than CNN’s same time slot.

“too ethnic, based on the high concentration of minority viewers.”

racist motivation by definition.

which, since its a hard left organization, is perfectly acceptable

""Soledad is very important to the network, and we're discussing various options with her.”"

Maybe she can run a breakfast burrito stand in the break room.

Too bad, Soledad offers a rare mix of sanctimony and stupidity. Wait, that is probably not that rare on CNN.
