Another Walt and Mearsheimer slug on the loose ... and somehow he escaped our control ...but no longer....From STAND-UP BLOG:
Cuban-American anchor Rick Sanchez came on Stand Up! with Pete Dominicktoday for a loose exchange on current events, media, and journalism. Throughout much of the interview, the discussion touched on race. To our surprise, at various points, Sanchez took aim at Daily Show host Jon Stewart, and even referred to his (and Pete's) employer CNN as being "run" by Jews.
....
Is this all there is to be?When Pete defended Jon Stewart as "just a comedian," Sanchez shot back, "That's a cop-out." (I happen to agree with Sanchez on that one.)
When Pete suggested Jews (such as Stewart) have at least some sense of what it's like to be an oppressed minority, Sanchez seemed to make the claim that Jews run CNN and the news business in general and that Stewart thus did not in fact know what it was like to feel the sting of prejudice.
"Yeah," Sanchez snickered sarcastically at the idea that Jews are as much minorities as Latinos in the US.
Very powerless people... [snickers] He's such a minority, I mean, you know [sarcastically]... Please, what are you kidding? ... I'm telling you that everybody who runs CNN is a lot like Stewart, and a lot of people who run all the other networks are a lot like Stewart, and to imply that somehow they -- the people in this country who are Jewish -- are an oppressed minority? Yeah. [sarcastically]
That's right, CNN anchor Rick Sanchez basically suggested that Jews have run the media.
Pete asked, "They can't relate to that? A Jewish person doesn't have a constant fear in the back of their head that we could [inaudible] the Holocaust?"
"I think his father could," Sanchez replied, referring to Stewart.
"I think every Jewish person feels that way," Pete said.
"I hope so," Sanchez responded.
Sanchez also suggested Jews in general, at least of his generation or younger, are not discriminated against, though they might hear the occasional Jew joke now and again.

Has he been fired yet? Cause he should be. This is outrageous. He's got to go.
This is why Walt and Mearsheimer are disgusting. They give cover to those whose inner compulsions reveal the worst and most ancient sicknesses.
Like a gigantic sick amoeba in a horror story rearing itself.
Amazing how much the hatred against the Jewish people increased since Obama took office.
First, Stewart is more than just a comedian regardless of what he or anyone else says. I can't remember the exact figure, but like a majority or something of youth get their news via the man. That ain't accidental and it don't happen without Stewart acquiescing. Stewart full well knows this and rides with it. He may be a good comedian, but he's more than that and he himself knows that.
It's almost kind of good news that this dumb, leaving the of a fatal accident involving alcohol, idiot has met his end in media via his stupid big mouth. The only downside is that CNN will probably replace him with a bigger even more biased fool.
I've noticed hatred against Jews increasing for quite some time, but it does almost seem to have increased lately.
You must be mistaken cjk ..only islamophobic hate incidents can be counted ...your attitude has been noticed, oh yes !
I agree. And hate statistics, here in the US, back it up. What is it with Jews like Stewart? Is his life so priviledged that he is able to turn his back on his own people and reality?
Rich Sanchez has to go. His comments are unacceptable.
I just went to WZ and see the top story is that they fired Rick Salchicha! Woo hoo! I'm thrilled beyond belief! Yes! Alright!
Fuck you, Rick!!!
