CNN Fires Jeffrey Lord

CNN is done with conservative commentator Jeffrey Lord.  CNN fired Lord yesterday after he tweeted a Nazi salute, "Sieg Heil," at a prominent liberal activist.  Lord said he was just, "mocking Nazis and Fascists" and that his tweet was misunderstood.  Lord also accused CNN of caving to bullies.  

CNN issued a statement saying, "Nazi salutes are indefensible." Lord was the first explicitly pro-Trump commentator to join the network.  CNN says it still has about a dozen other conservative commentators.
