It isn’t surprising that MSNBC is still supporting the blog besieged and increasingly apologizing Joy Reid but Sean Hannity might have been one of the last people you’d think would come forward to say the host should keep her cable gig.

But that’s what the accurately self-described “number one rated host in cable” did today to a very critical competitor. “Someone needs to take the lead in cable news and stop the ‘crush, fire them, and destroy hosts you may disagree with’ environment,” the Fox News Channel primetime king and Donald Trump call sheet regular wrote this afternoon online. “I guess as the number one rated host in cable, I’ll start.”

here as well. It always seemed so perfect...we get bombed and the Bush government gets the war they have been wanting...but I don't believe it was a conspiracy myself. I find nothing wrong with Joy's comments.
