CNN anchor suspended for ‘homophobic’ tweets


A CNN anchor was benched after sending homophobic tweets during the Super Bowl.

Roland Martin shocked viewers when he tweeted that any male fans of David Beckham’s underwear commercial for H&M were not “real bruhs.”

“If a dude at your Super Bowl party is hyped about David Beckham’s H&M underwear ad, smack the ish out of him! #superbowl” he added.

He also made fun of a New England Patriots player earlier in the day who arrived wearing a pink jump suit.

“He needs a visit from #teamwhipdata-” he quipped.

At first, he tried to justify his tweets saying that he was just making fun of soccer. But many people weren’t buying it.

    Once again, FREEDOM OF SPEECH has been proven to be a farce!!
    CNN (or any other news station) would never – absolutely NEVER – suspend a reporter for
    denigrating a Christian….However, for a reporter to call a sodomite what he/she is, isn't acceptible, which
    shows the denigration of American morals!!
