CNN is under renewed pressure to fire immigrant-bashing winger Lou "Loopy Lou" Dobbs, who has been carrying on a nasty campaign for years against undocumented immigrants from Latin America. Embarrassingly, CNN is trying to lure Hispanic viewers through its programming ("Latino in America"), but major Hispanic media organizations and advocacy groups aren't buying it and are accusing CNN of hypocrisy. Loopy Lou is reportedly angling for a job with the Fux Business cable channel -- what a perfect fit that would be -- where he would join the loon John "Pornstache" Stossel, the self-styled libertarian who used to appear on "20/20" and complain about any government involvement in anything. (If he and Pornstache can coexist, that is.)
CNN can't have both Loopy Lou and a significant Hispanic audience. It's a little like expecting Glenn "Boo Hoo" Beck to have an audience of sane people.
UPDATE: According to Fux's house Latino Geraldo "El Moustachio Grande" Rivera, (Li'l Latin?) Loopy Lou won't be coming to his Nutwork.
