Comcast dumps local critic of Bill O'Reilly

Barry Nolan out at CN8. OK, granted, probably not somebody you've actually watched since his "Evening Magazine" days, but still. He got canned for objecting to Bill O'Reilly getting some sort of bloviator award from whoever it is who hands out regional Emmies.

Evenhanded journalist?

If John Silber indeed wrote this:

Bill O’Reilly was then and continues to be a remarkably evenhanded journalist...

Well, he's flat-out wrong, unless O'Reilly is doing journalism someplace I've never heard of.

Who says so?

We have no word from Comcast that this is the reason he was let go.

It's only Barry Nolan that is saying this is the reason he is being let go.

Besides, Barry was being a clown.

Give Comcast some feedback
