    1943: punch a nazi in the face and get a metal. 2025: call a nazi a nazi online and lose your job.

      1943

      Never ask a man his wage.

      Never ask a woman her age.

      Never ask Allen Dulles what Operation Sunrise was doing for Karl Wolff in 1945.

        Don’t stress yourself out! Disengage and ignore it all for a bit. Come back refreshed because we need you! They want 2 things: to control us, and for us to feel like it’s hopeless… It’s not. There’s more of us and we will win. But in the meantime, please take care of yourself…

          Didn’t realize they made that much.

          This article claims fox anchors make as little as $1 million up to $45 million.

        Thats rough but also who wants to keep working at a place where you are not free to state in opinion that Trump and Company are bad guys.

        Also if their are fired anyway, may aswell leave it up.

    Smells like corporate meddling.

    Reminds me of the 60 Minutes and CBS controversy. In the mid-90s, producers worked on a segment to expose big tobacco knew about the dangers of nicotine yet sold products anyways.

    Big tobacco laid down the pressure on 60 Minutes and CBS network. 60 Minutes was huge back then and had high levels of journalistic integrity. Ultimately, CBS executives killed/delayed/manipulated/watered down the big tobacco story. CBS was at the time was apparently in merger with Westinghouse and executives were pissing their pants the big tobacco lawsuit could kill that M&A.

    ABC is owned by Walt Disney now. I think they have a few acquisitions lined up that they need green lit by Orange man administration. Wouldn’t be surprised if this is the case here.

    Fire Moran to appease Orange man.

    Honestly need to break up the big corporations.

    The tweet read:

    …

    Miller is a man who is richly endowed with the capacity for hatred. He’s a world-class hater.

    You can see this just by looking at him because you can see that his hatreds are his spiritual nourishment. He eats his hate.

    I’m having some trouble here, what’s the controversial statement?

        I took it more as implying his reaction is to relish hatred, not his physical appearance per se.

        The guy is shown repeatedly on video reveling in the pain and suffering he causes. Laughing at the liberals who reveal their weakness by showing empathy, leaning into and enjoying his bad-guy persona.

        That’s what I this he meant.

        ABC is cowardly. They settled HitlerPig’s lawsuit against Stephanopoulos, giving him $15 million to end a lawsuit he would have lost, but was a $15 million bribe to leave them alone. Now Moran, an excellent reporter, is fired for a mild insult against PeeWee Himmler. I’m sure Disney acted because PeeWee called and demanded it.

        I just wrote a post saying that PeeWee Himmler jerks off to photos of Nazi death camps. I guess I can expect a call

    This is how Fox News “reporters” talk about Democrats ON AIR (and in much more derogatory and dishonest ways) and ABC fires him for a personal tweet.

    Spineless weak puppets.
