Here's something you don't see everyday. MSNBC fired contributor Sam Seder for a sarcastic tweet from several years ago. It was obviously a joke--even if it wasn't a good one--but in today's climate, MSNBC decided not to take a chance.
Well, the viewers of MSNBC did not like the decision. They said MSNBC shouldn't be bullied by the Far Right (who unearthed this tweet), and no one should be fired for sarcasm.
After giving it some thought, MSNBC agreed. Yesterday Sam Seder was rehired.
