There is simply no plausible excuse for how Michelle Bachmann was treated on Jimmy’s Fallon’s show the other night. Even after Fallon apologized, howbeit cowardly on Twitter, there is no doubt that the Questove, drummer for the band who thought up the idea should lose his job over this. Ed Morrissey of Hot Air writes:

“Bachmann is absolutely right that Questlove’s career would be over had he pulled that with the First Lady; there might have been a dent in the sidewalk where Questlove would have landed outside of 30 Rock after the ejection. It’s a little odd that NBC’s entertainment division didn’t get out in front of this last night to defuse the situation. The network has been touchy about the suggestion that the politics of its cable channel, MSNBC, influences how they report the news at NBC, but this makes it look as though the entire organization has overtly adopted MSNBC’s political sensibilities. Not only does Bachmann deserve an apology, it’s a low-cost way to keep their pretense of overall objectivity in place.”

This wouldn’t have happened in no way shape or form on a conservative show, but liberals have long gotten away with this kind of slander. David Letterman is famous for doing everything but calling Sarah Palin a slut, and his last go around nearly got him canned. It’s time for conservatives to gather around their own and demand that a head or two roll.

Questlove should be fired. Contact NBC to let them know.
