Shuster: MSNBC Suspended Me, Why Not Bashir?

David Shuster took to Twitter to hammer MSNBC and his old boss Phil Griffin for giving Martin Bashir a free pass after his disgusting comments about Sarah Palin last week. 

The liberal commentator and journalist has a pretty good working knowledge of MSNBC’s policies regarding on-air conduct. Shuster was suspended from the peacock cable outlet during his tenure as a reporter and fill-in anchor.
