Racism to blame for firing of liberal MSNBC host Tiffany Cross, claims Washington Post columnist

Washington Post columnist Karen Attiah blamed racism for MSNBC’s abrupt firing of Black weekend anchor Tiffany Cross earlier last month.

In a Friday column, Attiah argued that Cross’s ouster was a "a reminder that the rug could be pulled out from under [Black journalists] at any time." 

She added that it was a "bad look" in a time when "attacks against Black educators, authors and journalists are increasing across the country."
