CNN gave Lewandowski half a mil after committing assault on a journalist, so it leaves me wondering where exactly your line is.

Was it that what Aslan said doesn't represent CNN? If so, Lewandowski does? Or just that it was about a POTUS? Which is fine, but say that.

Glad to hear CNN thinks a lame tweet is more offensive than actual physical assault.

I see CNN continues America's favorite tradition.....giving white men the benefit of the doubt while holding minorities to higher standards

Mark Halperin called President Obama a dick *on-the-air* at MSNBC. Do you feel like he should have been fired?

CNN employed Glenn Beck and Lou Dobbs for a long time, after a great deal of hateful commentary. They were not, however, Muslims.

This is a bad response, Brian. Calling someone a name is not worse than the behavior of those two day in and day out.
