Religious Correspondent Said Someone Should ‘Sh*t in Sarah Palin’s Mouth’
The BBC has appointed a “well known and respected” journalist, who once suggested someone should “sh*t” in Sarah Palin’s mouth on American television, as their new religious affairs correspondent.
(he later apologized)
Martin Bashir joined ABC in 2004 before moving to NBC in 2010 as an MSNBC anchor and a correspondent on the “Dateline” programme. He resigned from MSNBC three years ago, after making the shocking remark about the former U.S. vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin.
He called Mrs. Palin America’s “resident dunce” and “a world-class idiot” after she said America’s massive national debt was “enslaving” future generations and made them “beholden to the foreign masters”.
Mr. Bashir said her comments were “abdominal to anyone who knows anything about [slavery’s] barbaric history” and implied the former Alaska governor deserves an 18th-century “dose of discipline”.
Specifically, he quoted the diary of a Jamaican slave owner who boasted about making slaves “sh*t in [the] mouth” of other slaves, before insisting Mrs. Palin was the “outstanding candidate” for similar treatment today.
