CNN dismisses Iranian TV host on insulting Trump

“The network said it was not continuing with a second season of 'Believer,' Aslan's series about different religions, which premiered last year, the Associated Press reported.

“Angered about Trump's social media commentary on the London terror attacks, Aslan tweeted last Saturday, using insulting words about Trump and calling him '... not just an embarrassment to America and a stain on the presidency; he's an embarrassment to humankind.'

“Aslan also tweeted that Trump was a 'man baby that must be ignored in times of crisis.'

The Iranian-born author later apologized 'for my choice of words,' and CNN issued a statement saying 'that kind of discourse is never appropriate.' But it wasn't enough to save his show.

“Only two weeks ago CNN dumped comedian Kathy Griffin, co-host of its annual New Year's Eve celebration, when she was photographed holding a depiction of Trump's severed head.”
