Man's 35 year career with news network finishes after he called George Floyd a POS

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...iece-sh-t.html
-TV personality and Footy Show host Sam Newman has left Channel Nine
-The former AFL great announced his split from the network on Friday night
-Newman's split from Nine comes after an extraordinary rant on George Floyd
-Daily Mail Australia reported Newman labelled Floyd 'a piece of sh*t' yesterday

'George Floyd, who is a piece of sh*t incidentally,' he began before his co-hosts attempted to intervene.

'You know who George Floyd is? He has been in jail five times, he held up a pregnant black woman with a knife, he's a drug addict, he's a crack head and he's a porn star.'

Newman said George Floyd's death occurred 'because of the police brutality'.

'And it should never have happened, but I'm just telling you who George Floyd is and they've made a monument to him and he's a piece of sh*t,' he said.

At this point, the company was probably more concerned of protesters destroying their station.

That or, just a bunch of left liberal cucks who cant accept that George Floyd really is a pos and his lifestyle lead him to getting kneed by another pos

He's right, but that was a foolish thing to say in the current climate. I'm glad people are still speaking their minds (Sam has made a career out of it) but this was to be expected. Sad times we are living in.

This probably wouldn’t even make a top 10 list of offensive things that Sam has done.

Looks a bit like a fukked up Aaron Eckhart.

I agree with what you're saying but on the other hand feel like we should be speaking our minds and not caving into these scumbags. What the hell happened to free speech or the ability to express a fukking opinion without having your career ruined and being vilified for it? We need to make a stand bros.

Feel exactly the same. I know people say that this is all just media and if you ignore it and immerse yourself in the real world then this won't bother you. But let's face it a lot of us spend time online so this IS part of our world. And there's no escaping it.

I'm a Brit but was watching CNN yesterday. The BBC is biased but I simply could not believe CNN. Yesterday they were going on Trump and concentration camps or something. That channel is not a news channel, it's just democratic propaganda.

And people having their lives ****ed over for expressing an opinion? I wasn't a fan of the fat bish but do you remember Roseanne Barr getting utterly cancelled years ago for one stupid, drunken tweet? Saw this documentary on her. She seems depressed as hell:

So his take away from the incident is that George Floyd was a POS?

People like this are jast as bad as those injecting race into every police brutality incident.

Why not engage in a constructive discusson about the incident itself instead of looking for brownie points with irrelevant talking points? Why not address Derek Chauvin's POS history as well? What's he hoping to achieve? (serious question)

Why does Australia care what happens in America. A lot of these tactics of not having an opinion is the same thing Nazi Germany used. These leftists are becoming the very thing they hate.

His takeaway was that it was an act of police brutality that should never have happened.

But as a side note re the glorification and monumentification of Floyd he noted that the guy did happen to be a POS.

Will Chauvin? If Chauvin does, will that stop you thinking he's a POS?

Who cares? It's opinion. He's entitled to express it, whatever it is. It's an OPINION and there is no inherent duty to make it fair and balanced. We should be able to say whatever we want, no matter how misguided it is. I hate Twitter but it would be better if people could troll on their and say stupid chit for lulz. Now everybody has to conform to a single view so it becomes homogeneous and bland.

is he wrong though? the way Floyd was killed was absolutely wrong and he didn't deserve that but I tend to agree that he was probably a piece of chit.

The people who say that he is right but not the right way to talk about it, have you ever considered the fact that people are defending this clown and stating the facts is EXACTLY the right way to talk about it? This man just lost his job because of a criminal that's being praised by many people for the wrong reasons. The world's going to chit at this point.

For non Aussies, Sam Newman’s the kind of dickhead who will protest outside of parliament because he can’t play golf due to covid. A complete narcissistic wanker who thinks he’s too good for everything. Even with him gone, none of the footy shows on free to air TV are worth watching anyway.
