On Friday morning, “Special Snowflake” Soledad O’Brien was joined by fellow “too ethnic” cleansing victim Roland Martin for her final “Starting Point” on CNN.
I'll be on with @Soledad_OBrien @StartingPtCNN tomorrow. Even though my deal ends April 6, llkely my last @cnn appearance too. So tune in!

What I caught the end…. @Soledad_OBrien is leaving CNN?! Are they getting rid of all the African American Anchors?

Hmm … maybe Martin should have spoken up when first they came for Soledad.
The hilarious highlight of Soledad’s goodbye came when she told viewers, “If I’ve learned anything over the last year, it’s that facts matter.”

And she said it with a straight face! Video here:
Did the oh-so-unbiased “real journalist” come up with that one on her own? Or did she read it from a liberal blog or Wikipedia? We’re doubtful she’s learned that lesson, though her adventures in bias gave her ample opportunity.
The deluded are all torn up over O’Brien’s departure.
@Soledad_OBrien enjoyed watching you on a daily basis. Good luck in your future projects. We need more journalist of your caliber. Miss you

Will miss @Soledad_OBrien on Starting Point & her knack for making guests actually answer the question & not throw out spin.

Breitbart.com’s John Nolte (and Twitchy!) will miss O’Brien for another reason.
Soledad's final minutes on CNN coming up! Picture me sitting here in party hat holding party poppers. Tho I will miss the material.

So long, Special Snowflake!
Bye, Soledad! I sincerely wish you a long, healthy and happy life nowhere near the national debate.
— Burn, Democrat-Run Cities, Burn! (@NolteNC) March 29, 2013
And with Soledad's goodbye, media integrity increases about the size of a raindrop.
