Sanchez's Lament

CNN's Rick Sanchez Calls Jon Stewart "Bigot" | Stand Up with Comedian Pete Dominick on Sirius XM Radio:

"I think to some extent Jon Stewart and [Stephen] Colbert are the same way. I think Jon Stewart?s a bigot."

 Hmm, while I agree with Sanchez's estimation that racism itself is not the exclusive bastion of the right, I can't agree with his estimation of Stewart as a bigot.

I also think Rick Sanchez is playing the victim card here, the reason he shows up on Stewart's show is because he says a lot of really stupid stuff. That being said, I see Anderson Cooper and Wolf Blitzer on TDS just as often as Sanchez. Maybe if Sanchez paid more attention to the actual task of journalism as opposed to relying on Twitter as the backbone of his show, he would earn a little more respect.
