oh, it's allowed in that people can say what they wish. and other people can say what they wish in return. and networks can decide it's in their best interest to part ways when someone exercises their right to speak, and what they have to say could cause the network issues.
like a slate headline said, you don't have a constitutional right to a t.v. show.

I don't think that is going to happen.

i don't recall anyone saying they were. i know some right wing nutjobs were screaming about the suspension, but i don't think anyone said the guy was fired.

i also find it interesting that sarah palin was one of the people blathering about it, not long after calling for bashir to go-i guess she doesn't actually think everyone is entitled to free speech. just people she agrees with.

This woman, on the other hand, did get fired. With reason. I don't think anyone this stupid should be handling PR.

There are certain things that will get a person fired, regardless of their right to free speech. It just depends what the person says. If a person says that they hate a certain group, that person will probably get fired.

If a person says that they are a Christian and they believe that the Bible is the word of God, and therefore they think people should repent from anything that the Bible says is sin, I don't think that person deserves to get fired. By the way, Phil Robertson didn't single out any one group or any one sin. He was talking about all sin (sin according to the Bible). He even mentioned straight men that are sleeping around with a lot of women.

Anyway, I think there is a big difference between that and hate speech. There are certain religions where you can't drink or smoke. I like to have a glass of wine once in a while. Do you think I would be offended if a person said (in an interview) that according to their religion I was sinning by having a drink? The answer is no. I wouldn't be offended at all.

PC jihad with GLAAD screaming for sharia law.

If there is no right to a TV show, why is Al Sharpton still on?
