You can't handle the truth Baltimore!
That is the 1st thing that went through my mind when I read this article. The News station fired one their TV Anchors for saying the obvious. The last 3 mayors have been worthless and they all happened to be female and bl*ck.

C&P
A Baltimore TV anchor has been fired after a question she asked on air about the gender and race of the city's past three mayors was widely deemed racist and sexist.
Mary Bubala confirmed on Tuesday that she had been dropped by Baltimore's WJZ station over her remarks on live television last week.
Bubala, who has been with the station 15 years, was covering the resignation of controversial mayor Catherine Pugh when she asked a question about the city's string of past leaders.
We've had three female, African American mayors in a row. They were all passionate public servants. Two resigned, though. Is this a signal that a different kind of leadership is needed to move Baltimore City forward?' she asked.
The question, which was directed to Loyola University Maryland professor Karsonya Whitehead, was about the previous three mayors Sheila Dixon, Stephanie Rawlings-Blake and Catherine Pugh.
It prompted immediate outrage from viewers who urged WJZ to take action against the veteran TV anchor.
Bubala immediately apologized in the wake of the backlash, saying the question did not come out the way she had intended.
She issued a statement on Facebook on Tuesday confirming that she had been fired.
I think they have had 5 Police Commissioners in the last several years too. What a chithole

While I rarely watch local news other than Fox, Mary is one of the better anchors here. I didn't see the interview but she really should have known better than to ask that question in this liberal bastion of race baiters. 15 years of service down the drain in 1 statement. It was a valid question and she is being vilified for it. Hopefully she will catch on somewhere else. 0 -

What Mary should have said was:
"Baltimore has been controlled by Democrats for the last 50+ years; do you think that the voters should try a different direction, & vote in Republicans to run the city?"
Nothing offensive in that statement.

Neal, these a****les would find a reason to pillory her for even a statement like that. They?re not drinking the koolaid, they?re injecting the stuff. 0 -

The truth is what got her fired. You can not state the obvious and get away with it today. Unless you toe the Marxist line you will be punished.nmyers wrote:What Mary should have said was:

Lord Baltimore would be saddend at his namesake in shambles. Yes, Baltimore another example of failed democratic leadership.
The truth shall set most decent folk free but not the lost.
This firing illustrates examples of how the downward cycle of democrat socialist programs the ignorant sheeple that inhabit places like Baltimore.
Unfortunaly for the minority of decent folk who also live in Baltimore many are trapped in a jungle of dispare.
Shame but many places in our great country are headed in this same direction as Baltimore due to the same failed plans.0 -
I retired from a rare what-used-to-be-great federal agency. During the latter half of my career I watched it get destroyed by "Affirmative Action" putting unqualified minorities in positions of importance.
I'm just too old to care anymore...but I cry for my grand children.0 -
Here's another post about "free speech" firing. Free speech is fast becoming a thing of the past for those who lean a certain way. Wouldn't mind it so much if it was 50 / 50.

It's both political parties that get elected that has caused the rotten condition of our state of affairs here.They play both sides off to their own ends to get that big federal pensions with the perks now and later in life. Soon the dance and song will be over and it will be time to pay the fiddler!

Agree
SEVERAL POINTS:
DEMOCRATs don't want to know the truth and they have a complicit media to lie and cover for them.
DEMOCRATs and the media continue to lie almost every time their lips move even when telling the truth would be beneficial
DEMOCRATs are in absolute control of Baltimore and over 90% of people in Baltimore vote DEMOCRAT.
Despite the societal abyss, high murder rate, high property crime rate, and poverty, DEMOCRAT voters blame
Trump for the sad situation they themselves create.0 -
Another leftist media member's career dies by the same hatchet she's probably wielded to destroy others. Let me check my sympathy meter...wait...nope no movement...maybe the sensitivity is set to low at "who gives a f#$%" 0 -

It doesn't matter where you are or what party you belong to. The truth is inconvenient. It gets in the way of every ones warm fuzzy feelings. Lets fire or impeach someone so that we can fool ourselves into thinking we've accomplished something. Lets keep everyone in an uproar over everything under the sun to keep them entertained. Then we will make some meaningless law or sue someone to show how much we care. For example suing the drug companies over opioids. Suing them won't cure the problem and any costs and losses from the lawsuits will just get passed on to the patients who need their products. If you think I am ticked off about all political correctness, politicians, and the general stupidity of the population, you might be on to something. Bob0
