CNN anchor Rick Sanchez was fired Friday by the news network after he went on a tirade during a radio interview calling Jon Stewart a “bigot” and accusing the “elite, Northeast establishment liberals” of labeling him as “second-tier” because of his Cuban-American background, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
“Rick Sanchez is no longer with the company,” the statement from CNN said. “We thank Rick for his years of service and we wish him well,” it added.
