CNN Fires Producer Over Personal Blog
dangerz writes "CNN has fired one of its producers because of his personal blog. Chez Paziena, the ex-producer, has stated that he started the blog 'mostly to pass the time, hone my writing skills, resurrect my voice a little, and keep my mind sharp following the [brain tumor] surgery.' After a few months, CNN found out about it and ended up letting him go because his 'name was "attached to some, uh, 'opinionated' blog posts" circulating around the internet.'"
A young, white, white collar worker was fired? Because he did something to piss off his employers?
When will the madness stop??!

Reality has a liberal bias, but, by indulging in that sort of rhetoric rather than letting the facts speak for themselves, you end up making yourself look like as much of a fool as the fools you oppose.
We all know what to do, but we don't know how to get re-elected once we have done it
And their somewhat ignorant adherence to what someone else tells them the law is supposed to look like. Chez was fired precisely because of the blockheaded slavish unimaginative 'product' oriented apparachik mentality so prevalent in the /. set. Yup there's a rule.
Guess what - 'rules' are why your media are worthless shitpiles now. Good luck with that. Maybe you can 20 more years of Bush inspired spineless mediocrity....because those are the rules.
