25. Now that's some good news! My thanks to Color of Change and all who spoke out

and finally got Pat's employers to take a look at what they were paying for. It is a shame of great magnitude that it took so many years. His recent work is awful, not that different from his decades of hate mongering, and I know that without the focused work of Color of Change he'd have continued to work there.
I might tune them in again now. No MSNBC for us since we heard Rachel and others call him 'Uncle Pat'. That was it. Too much for me. When they tried to make him charming and quirky, when they were trying to mainstream Pat, we simply could not endure it.
