Roland Martin Out At CNN
Telling his Twitter followers that the "new boss wants his own peeps," today Roland Martin revealed that he will leave CNN on April 6th. Last year Martin was suspended by CNN after tweeting, "If a dude at your Super Bowl party is hyped about David Beckham's underwear ad, smack the ish out of him!" GLAAD had called for Martin's outright dismissal, saying, "We need people in the public eye to speak out against the dangers of anti-LGBT violence, not openly encourage it." Martin's wife runs an "ex-gay reparative therapy" program.
