Former CNN Anchor Rick Sanchez Stirs Up More Trouble for Embattled Today Show

New York – Former CNN Anchor Rick Sanchez, most famous for calling The Daily Show’s Jon Stewart a "bigoty Jew," has put his cranky personality back in the spotlight by claiming The Today Show is discriminating against Jenna Wolfe because she is a pregnant lesbian.  Why Sanchez believes anyone cares what he thinks is still a mystery, but he’s been tweeting up a storm about the alleged controversy.

Wolfe had been the Sunday co-anchor with Today’s Lester Bolt. No, Lester Holt.  We get confused sometimes because there are not bolts on the side of his neck.  Sorry.  Anyway, she was recently demoted to newsreader (but chose to become a stand-up comedian instead) when NBC brought in CBS’ Erica Hill to co-host with Holt.

Unsolicited Drivel contacted our usual anonymous intern at Today for comment.  He told us, “Rick who?  I will admit I was surprised when they brought Erica in.  I forget what she looks like even as I am watching her on the screen.  She has just THAT MUCH presence and chemistry with Lester. Bwaaaah!  But Rick is way off the mark with his accusation of NBC being homophobic.  In fact, nobody at Today even knew Jenna gay. We just thought she was an obnoxious narcissist. Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve ever met an obnoxious lesbian before.  I guess there's a first time for everything.  But can we go back to railing on mean Matt Lauer now?”
