Remember, he is on Comedy Central, not CNN or FOX News. Bitching that he is a bigot is like bitching that Peter Griffin is too liberal.

Actually, his employers could fire him for saying that on Facebook. Its called not showing company loyalty. Sanchez was basically being a bigot himself by saying CNN was run by Jews. It doesn't matter where he said it. It looks bad on him and makes him look like a bigot himself.

Yeah. Conflict of interest can be a bitch.

He even corrected himself at the end about Stewart being a bigot. CNN is also reporting that he "abruptly quit" the next day after the comments. They did not say that they fired him. I love how these websites and the news in general speculates on stuff.
