Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee joined the hosts of Fox & Friends on Wednesday morning to discuss some of the biggest media controversies of the earlier two weeks. When requested for his take on MSNBC host Martin Bashir’s inflammatory feedback about former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, Huckabee mentioned that the host will have to be “canned” or it will signal that his network has an sick-outlined set of ideal standards of habits.
Brian Kilmeade noted the apparent double standard in the fact that MSNBC recently let former host Alec Baldwin go over anti-gay remarks he made in the streets of New York City but is just not disciplining Bashir over his scripted on-air remarks.
“Martin Bashir must have some in point of fact incriminating photos of executives at MSNBC,” Huckabee submitted. “There’s no different explanation for why this guy is still on the air.”

Huckabee stated that 1st earl baldwin of bewdley “desires to head to anger management,” but Bashir’s intentional and vetted remarks are more troubling.
“Actually that, for him to stay on air saying one of the vital most vile, just disgusting, despicable things about another individual actually must imply that he gets canned,” he brought. “If MSNBC retains Martin Bashir — at the moment he’s getting a nice little trip, they are saying, that was once already planned — but if he comes again, then I believe they’ve bought, as Rickey Ricardo would say, they’ve obtained some ‘splaining to do as what their requirements are.”
Turning to CBS reporter Lara Logan, who was once just lately suspended along along with her 60 Minutes producer after airing a deceptive and poorly sourced document on the Benghazi assaults, Kilmeade said he used to be “greatly surprised.”
“Very stunned,” Huckabee mentioned. “We still don’t comprehend what happened in Benghazi. Our executive lied to us. They lined it up.”
“Lara Logan is definitely a hero journalist, at the least to attempt to get the story out,” he concluded.
