29. Rick's a blithering idjit. He sobbed on sL-IMUS about being an exiled Cuban
I used to keep an e-file on him of articles & examples of his stupidity, but it got lost & all I've got left is the item below. Last year he let himself be tasered on air & then collapsed yelling ow-ow-ow like somebody else we know.

There was a wonderful, snarky article that catalogged a whole gallery of his goofs. And yet what does it say that Aaron BROWN was taken off the air & still can't get a job and Rick floats all over from MSRNC to CNN to local and back again without any trouble?

See, Judi, except for Hugo & Fidel, we really *are* on the same side!!1

.... Swarthy, preternaturally tan male: And I'm Rick Sanchez. A weekly newspaper in Miami is speculating that… let me see if I've got this right… that I, WSVN anchor Rick Sanchez, am a secret agent agitating for Castro's Cuba. ....
Cafiero: That's right, Rick. ... Critics of your sensational broadcasting style are claiming you are, in large part, responsible for the civic unrest that followed the removal of Elián Gonzalez from the home of his relatives in Little Havana. Those disturbances, you may recall, served to weaken the position of Miami's exile community while strengthening Fidel Castro's iron grip on power.

Sanchez : Ah… wait a second here, Carmel. You just used the word sensational. Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't that mean good? ....

Cafiero: Not in this context, Rick. You see, a close examination of your performance over the course of the Elián saga reveals your reporting helped make the entire Cuban-exile community appear ridiculous. ....
