>This is apparently a matter of policy at MSNBC.  If he chooses to work there and that is their policy then he deserves suspension.

Well, they seem to apply it inconsistently.  So "deserves" might not be fair...but yeah, that's the rule, and their right to enforce it. 

>That said, it is a dumb policy…

I agree, it is a dumb rule. It's brought out defenders from the left AND right who think it is ridiculous that he was suspended.

Earlier this year Mr. Hannity made a $2,400 contribution to a Republican congressional candidate, John Gomez, a long-time friend of his, and a $5,000 contribution to the political action committee of Representative Michele Bachmann, Republican of Minnesota.


Whether talking heads make donations or not this should not be an issue.
