Rick Sanchez Is On "The List You Don't Want To Be On!"

There was a segment on The Rick Sanchez Show that was called "The List You Don't Want To Be On." Well, after receiving the news that he was fired from CNN,he is now on a list that no one wants to be on. The unemployed list.

Rick Sanchez has lost his gig because he called Jon Stewart a "bigot." He went on a big rant about Jews as well. Was he trying to get fired when he said that CNN is ran by Jews? He must have been high or something.

Here's what CNN has to say about it:

"CNN anchor Rick Sanchez abruptly left the network Friday afternoon, just one day after making controversial comments on a satellite radio program.

"Rick Sanchez is no longer with the company," according to a statement from CNN. "We thank Rick for his years of service and we wish him well."

On Thursday, Sanchez appeared on the XM Sirius radio program "Stand-Up with Pete Dominick." During the interview with Dominick, Sanchez called "The Daily Show's" Jon Stewart "a bigot" and then said that he was bigoted against "everybody else who's not like him. Look at his show, I mean, what does he surround himself with?"Dominick pressed for specifics, and Sanchez, who is Cuban-American, responded,"That's what happens when you watch yourself on his show every day, and all they ever do is call you stupid."

Dominick, who was once the warm-up comic at Stewart's Comedy Central show and now has a spot on CNN's "John King, USA," noted that Stewart is Jewish and so a minority himself.

"I'm telling you that everybody who runs CNN is a lot like Stewart, and a lot of people who run all the other networks are a lot like Stewart, and to imply that somehow they, the people in this country who are Jewish, are an oppressed minority? Yeah," Sanchez responded.

The comments were widely quoted online and on social media.

Sanchez's 3 to 5 p.m. daily spot will be filled by "CNN Newsroom" for the "foreseeable future," CNN said.(END OF ARTICLE) Read more here.

Beware Of The Brazilian Blowout!

Good Morning America's report on Brazilian blow-outs is astonishing on so many levels. The women featured in the segment want "bone-straight" hair. Kinky or curly hair like mines is considered "difficult" & "unmanageable." Well, I manage my curls just fine,thank you!

When I see minorities obsess over straight hair,it makes me cringe. Especially when the minority happens to be African-American. Don't they know that straight hair is a European or Western standard of beauty? Beauty is not one-dimensional. I love curly hair more than I do straight hair. But,society wants me to feel otherwise.

Far too many people are willing to risk their hairline by wearing a lace-front weave in order to have hair that looks more European.And you may be risking your health in your quest to have European hair if you get a Brazilian blow-out. So,beware!
