#BoycottMSNBC? Viewers angry that network president apologized for bigoted tweet

#msnbc There shouldn't be apologies for the truth. You're off in my home now–and it may stay that way permanently.

Don't y'all act like rightwingers love blacks. Please. MSNBC probably shouldn't have tweeted it, but they said what most of us have.

@INIVISIBLE @Gus_802 @RosalyndDoneghy Phil @msnbc needs to learn NEVER to apologize for telling the PURE TRUTH. And bring back @BashirLive !

I'm now expectnig @MSNBC and their ownership at @COMCAST to apologize to David Duke and the Klan. What a weak knee network

Hey Phil Griffin! Grow some balls! Stop apologizing! Roger Ailes would never apologize for anything Fox News spews out. @msnbc

@HowardKurtz @MSNBC Ridiculous over-reaction to what was most probably a Truthful Tweet. The staff was fired? that sucks

#msnbc Phil Griffin is a weak dick. Nothing offensive was said. No apology needed for telling truth

@msnbc well I guess we now know you lack balls apologizing for stating the truth is cowardly #growapair#standup

If I ran @msnbc I would have defended tweet as it IS THE DAMN TRUTH! But coward #PhilGriffith is in charge – hence their plunging ratings.

MSNBC fires someone for telling the truth after faux outrage by the GOP. American politics just hit a new low.
