[Political Junkie Too]

How can anyone be so dumb to post stuff like that?

Liberal privilege?

[ronniesgal]

i am truly surprised anything happened to her at all.

[Roman_War_Criminal]

And there are still morons out there who don’t believe the media is at war with Conservatives.

She’s but one among tens of thousands employed by media who thinks like this.

[DuncanWaring]

Her children, if she has any, were dismembered and thrown in a dumpster.

[TBP]

Total hypocrisy on the part of SeeBS.

[NorthMountain]

Her views as expressed on social media are deeply unacceptable to too close to the views of all of us at CBS. She has committed the unpardonable sin of revealing the truth; for this reason she has been fired.

[DuncanWaring]

“Mommy” of cats, maybe.

[EdnaMode]

Or she could get a job in Hollywood.

[sparklite2]

When you live in a bubble of like-minded thinkers, you have to one-up them all to get any attention. It would have worked, too, if she hadn’t forgotten that social media spills into flyover country.

[Billthedrill]

I note that Fox has the CBS logo and the face of the offender covering about 1/3 of the first page of the article. I'm sure the CBS public affairs folks are pleased...not...

A truly repellent human being, this one. Progressivism seems to displace something normal in its victims and what is left is this sort of moral zombie. They walk among us.

[AmericanMermaid]

You’re right. And the only reason she was fired was because the bimbo eas stupid enough to do it publicly. Otherwise, she would still have a job.

[DesertRhino]

This tells me that in the environment she lives in, new York, mass media, etc, she didn’t think this opinion was even slightly controversial.

[Roman_War_Criminal]

Well she’s a “VP” supposedly.

[Buckeye McFrog]

But how in the world did this lady get to be one of their senior legal counsels with an pathetic, disgusting attitude like this?

Because as the poster above pointed out, this is simply how 90% of laywers in Manhattan think.

[ealgeone]

Betcha she thought she was in a protected class. She may have bought into the media, including cbs, narrative of how much people hate Trump.

[exit82]

See NFL?—No guarantee of free speech in the workplace.

[HotHunt]

I was really being rhetorical when asking the question, because you're right, we all know the answer.

But I think your estimate of 90% is too low. :-)
