Is Lou Dobbs, CNN's Resident Bigot, on His Way Out?
http://www.alternet.org/story/142940/is_lou_dobbs%2C_cnn%27s_resident_bigot%2C_on_his_way_out

By Don Hazen, AlterNet. Posted September 29, 2009.

Protest campaigns urging CNN to dump Dobbs are gathering momentum. Will 'the most trusted name in news' do the right thing?

It's time to give Lou Dobbs the boot: Add your name to AlterNet and CREDO's petition, and send him to the sidelines.

The heat on CNN to dump right-wing nativist news host Lou Dobbs has reached a boiling point.

Several grassroots and Internet campaigns urging CNN to drop Dobbs in response to his relentless hate-talk are gathering momentum and tens of thousands of signatures. Will Dobbs finally be stopped from using his on-air bully pulpit to bash immigrants and spread misleading and inaccurate information?

One major anti-Dobbs campaign, Basta Dobbs.com, calls Dobbs the "most dangerous man for Latinos in America."

2. He's got his own national radio show now
so, he doesn't really need CNN anymore.

3. I hope Mr. Gauze Filter gets his can kicked off.
he can join Beckerhead.

not saying I like the rest of the mostly assholes on CNN but Dobbs is an extra special creamy annoying bastard.
