        Yeah, watching one now. She really fucked up with this. I mean there’s no doubt they were looking for a reason to fire her. But this…I mean honestly I would fire her for this alone. Her good work doesn’t excuse this.

      She was that disrespectful to a guest on the show (who was merely trying to talk about her sister who is a hostage) and she got canned.

      Yeah I’d have fired her too. The complete lack of professionalism is astounding.

        Exactly. Shit like this pisses me off because it distracts from the important things (like the genocide in Gaza!).
