FNC’s Kurtz Wonders If CNN’s Reza Aslan ‘Will Still Have a Show’ Over Trump ‘Piece of Sh*t’ Comment

On Saturday, Reza Aslan — the host of CNN’s Believer — blasted President Donald Trump on Twitter, calling Trump a “piece of sh*t.”

This piece of shit is not just an embarrassment to America and a stain on the presidency. He’s an embarrassment to humankind. https://t.co/Dl5tMQMhMO

On MediaBuzz Sunday, host Howard Kurtz questioned whether the comment will end up costing Aslan his job.

“Within a day, I’m wondering if he will still have a show,” Kurtz said.

Several days ago, CNN severed ties with comedienne Kathy Griffin after she posed with a facsimile of a Donald Trump’s severed head.

Now, Kurtz believes the network may also dismiss Aslan.

“I don’t mind even CNN hosts taking issue with the President’s policies,” Kurtz said. “This was a vicious personal attack, this language.”
