NBC to Donald Trump: You’re fired

NEW YORK (AP) — NBC said Monday that it is ending its business relationship with mogul and GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump because of comments he made about Mexican immigrants during the announcement of his campaign.

The network said it would no longer air the annual Miss USA and Miss Universe pageants, which had been a joint venture between the company and Trump. Miss USA has aired on NBC since 2003, and this year’s edition was set for July 12.

“At NBC, respect and dignity for all people are cornerstones of our values,” NBC said in a statement.

Trump’s reply: a “weak” NBC should prepare to meet him in court.

To his credit he probably anticipated this liberal fallout and though I don't agree with everything he states at least he has the cajones to run and speak his mind. If he were a liberal and said things negative about conservative Christian group the libtards would give him the medal of honor!

Has nothing to do with free speech, that idiot can say anything he wants just like NBC can fire him if they want.

Typically, liberals like to pick on people who won't defend themselves. Notice how they quit harassing D. Sterling when he initiated lawsuits and hired private detectives. Hopefully, Trump will take the fight to them and send them off to their next 'cause'.

Wait, ChikFila can speak out against gays, Hobby Lobby can be against birth control, but NBC isn't allowed to fire someone for being racist? Which way do you want it? Conservatives are fine with the first two, but not the last one.

8:27 - I'm impressed with how you packed so many inaccuracies and illogical comparisons in to a single post. Are you a spokesperson for the democratic party?

6:41 Lmao... he is no different than any other politician. Just because he's rich, he can't be bought? Do you know his accountant? He has accepted his fair share of bribes and kickbacks from the government.
