MSNBC was a conservative commentator Pat Buchanan on Thursday, four months after suspending him following the publication of his latest book.
The book "the suicide of a great power" in the chapter entitled "The End of White America" and "The Death of Christian America." Critics called the book racist, homophobic and anti-Semitic, charges Buchanan denied.
MSNBC President Phil Griffin in the last month that I do not think Buchanan's book "should be part of the national dialogue, much less a part of the dialogue MSNBC."
The network said Thursday that "after 10 years we decided to part ways Pat Buchanan. We wish him well."
Buchanan, a column posted on Thursday, called the decision "an undeniable victory blacklisters."
The former GOP candidate has seemed increasingly out of place, as MSNBC pointed out, liberal commentary in recent years. But he has a regular presence, even forging an unlikely talk show host Rachel Maddow chemistry despite not agree on most issues.
Buchanan wrote that advocacy groups such as the Transfiguration and the Anti-Defamation League brand people racists or anti-Semitic, you know "venture outside the narrow enclosure, which seek to limit the debate." Their aim is to silence and censor dissent, while proclaiming devotion to the First Amendment, he said.
"I know that these blacklisters," he wrote. "They operate behind closed doors, the phone calls, threats and send off-the-record meetings. They operate in the dark, because as said Al Smith, nor anti-American can live in the sunshine."
The liberal media watchdog Media Matters America, MSNBC, said that Buchanan made the right decision in letting go.
The book "was not the first nor the worst of crimes," said Ari Rabin-Havt, executive vice president of Media Matters. "He is already the same racial insensitivity, anti-Semitic and homophobic statements in the past 50 years."
