Martin Bashir resigns; MSNBC host suggested Sarah Palin's mouth be shat in

"After making an on-air apology, I asked for permission to take some additional time out around the Thanksgiving holiday. Upon further reflection, and after meeting with the President of msnbc, I have tendered my resignation. It is my sincere hope that all of my colleagues, at this special network, will be allowed to focus on the issues that matter without the distraction of myself or my ill-judged comments." — Martin Bashir, Coprophagio-Hortator Emeritus.
