CNN fires contributor Marc Lamont Hill over Israel remarks



CNN fired Marc Lamont Hill on Thursday after the longtime contributor made comments about Israel during a United Nations speech.

Hill, a media studies professor at Temple University, had drawn scrutiny for calling for a "free Palestine from the river to the sea." The words drew criticism from some conservatives and staunch Israel advocates, who said such remarks echoed language used by Hamas and other groups that seek to eliminate Israel.

"Marc Lamont Hill is no longer under contract with CNN," spokeswoman Barbara Levin told The Washington Post.

Wow.. I really thought they wouldn't do that..

It should start with Don Lemon. He cray-cray.

I was watching all of that on the news last night. They showed the video of him saying, in a prepared speech, "...a free Palestine from the river to the sea" and then showed him claiming he never said that.

They showed highlights of his spewing bullshit on Anderson Cooper, and Cooper just sat there with no expression/emotion on his face, is that typical of Cooper?
