Saturday, January 7, 3:43 PM
PASADENA, Calif. MSNBCs top executive said Saturday that he hasnt decided whether conservative commentator and author Pat Buchanan will be allowed back on the network.
Buchanan, a former GOP presidential candidate and a paid MSNBC contributor, hasnt been on the network since the publication of his book Suicide of a Superpower last October. The book has chapters titled The End of White America and The Death of Christian America and its author argues that the United States is in the Indian summer of our civilization.
When Pat was on his book tour, because of the content of the book, I didnt think it should be part of the national dialogue much less part of the dialogue on MSNBC, said MSNBC President Phil Griffin. The minority advocacy group Color of Change has circulated a petition urging MSNBC to fire Buchanan.
. . . Last August, Buchanan went on Morning Joe to explain that he wasnt trying to slur President Barack Obama by referring to him as your boy during an on-air discussion with talk show host Al Sharpton.
