Opinion Leader Michelle Bernard Is One Fine Sista, And Clearly On The Fast Track
Commentary Never Looked So Good
A regular panelist on MSNBC with Chris Matthews and David Gregory, The McLaughlin Group and a Sunday columnist with The Examiner, black female political pundit Michelle D. Bernard is on a roll.
So tell me again which CNN brother she's married to?
Ms. Bernard has been featured in Fast Company magazine, The Legal Times, The New York Daily News, The Washington Business Journal, The Washington City Paper, The Washington Lawyer, The Washington Post, and The Washington Times.
This conservative's career is on fire. In July 2008, Newsmax magazine named the lawyer with Jamaican heritage as one of three "Fast Trackers" on its list of the nation's top opinion leaders.Her husband and father of her children, Joe Johns of CNN, ain't doing so bad himself.

MSNBC Goes Ghetto, Accusing Chelsea Of Pimpin' For Her Momma!

Reporter Suspended For "Pimped Out" Wisecrack That Has Our Girl Hill Saying "Oh No You Didn't!"
MSNBC took swift and decisive action today after up and coming cable news personality David Shuster got a little too comfortable with his Ebonics speak. Especially when it comes to a 27-year-old white girl who's big baller-shot caller daddy already knows what it's like to be chillin at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, and who's mama is trying to get back up in that piece.
Hey David, this is not an episode of Cribs my brotha. We're talking about Hillary's baby. As a result, check out the official statement from the cable network that brought you Don Imus:"On Thursday's "Tucker" on MSNBC, David Shuster, who was serving as guest-host of the program, made a comment about Chelsea Clinton and the Clinton campaign that was irresponsible and inappropriate.
Shuster, who apologized this morning on MSNBC and will again this evening, has been suspended from appearing on all NBC News broadcasts, other than to make his apology. He has also extended an apology to the Clinton family. NBC News takes these matters seriously, and offers our sincere regrets to the Clintons for the remarks.
Hillary Clinton Responds to The Drama
Both the Clinton and Obama campaigns accepted invitations from us on Thursday evening to participate in a February 26th debate.
Our conversations with the Clinton campaign about their participation continue today, and we are hopeful that the event will take place as planned."

BALLER KIM VAUGHN TELLS IMUS SHE AIN'T HAVIN' IT: CALLIN' ME A NAPPY HEADED HO' NETS YOU 20 MIL? I DON'T THINK SO!

Rutgers Player Sues Imus, Wants Unspecified Damages After Dis
View related photos
Claiming that Don Imus' sexist and racist comments on April 4 about the Rutgers Women's Basketball Team damaged her reputation, the bad sistah at center is suing Don Imus and CBS.
Kia Vaughn filed a lawsuit on Tuesday alleging slander and defamation of character in state Supreme Court in the Bronx the same day Imus settled with CBS Radio in a deal that pre-empts his threatened $120 million breach-of-contract lawsuit against CBS.
The settlement allows him to make a comeback bid at a new station, a comeback Reverend Al Sharpton has already co-signed on. For Jesse Jackson, the verdict is still out.
Vaughn’s lawsuit, believed to be the first by a player in the case, says Imus and his former co-host Bernard McGuirk, along with CBS Corp. and CBS Radio, are legally responsible for damage done to her character and reputation.
Although there is no dollar amount listed in the suit, we hope homegirl gets as much KA-CHING as she possibly can!
Imus certainly isn't hurting for cash, and but for his ignorant-ass comments, we wouldn't even be talking about this. Kia, You Go Grrrl!

MSNBC'S NEW ANCHOR TAMRON HALL HAS GOT IT GOING ON!

Classy, competent and easy on the eyes, Tamron Hall is a great reason to watch MSNBC's Dayside.
Has anyone notice the new sister on MSNBC?
Although she's only been there for a few days, Tamron Hall is officially on our radar. She gets it!
Prior to starting her MSNBC gig last month, Hall spent 10 years at WFLD in Chicago, where she held a number of positions including general assignment reporter, consumer reporter, and most recently, host of the three-hour “Fox News in the Morning” program.
She also anchored the weekday mornings and served as a noon anchor. While at WFLD, Hall covered several breaking news stories including one of Amtrak’s most devastating accidents in Illinois and she secured a one-on-one interview with Sen. Barack Obama shortly before he announced his run for the presidency. Hall was nominated for an Emmy for her consumer report segment, “The Bottom Line,” which she launched in 1999.
Before joining WFLD, Hall spent four years as a general assignment reporter at KTVT in Dallas. She began her broadcasting career at KBTX in Bryan, Texas, as a general assignment reporter.
Hall received a Bachelor of Arts in Broadcast Journalism from Temple University. She is a member of the National Association of Black Journalists. Hall is also very involved in charitable organizations that help women fight abuse and organizations that work to end illiteracy. Hall is a native of Luling, Texas.Do your thing Black woman -- your fan base just grew by three (okay only the brothers were polled but we're sure our sister will co-sign on our assessment)

IMUS CLAIMS CBS & MSNBC CULPABLE IN SLUR MISHAP

A lawyer for Don Imus said Friday that the former radio host's bosses could have edited the on-air comments that got him fired _ and the fact that they didn't meant they saw his remarks as routine for his often-provocative show. Attorney Martin Garbus told ABC-TV's "Good Morning America" that CBS Radio and MSNBC had delay buttons but didn't use them when Imus made racist and sexist comments about the Rutgers women's basketball team last month."
That means CBS and MSNBC both knew the language that was going out, and both knew the language complied with (Imus') contract. ... It was consistent with many of the things he had done," Garbus said.
CBS Radio owns Imus' former home radio station, WFAN-AM, and MSNBC simulcast the program on cable television.
