CNN gives Reza Aslan the left foot of fellowship

I'm not gloating, really I'm not
From the story here:

CNN has parted ways with controversial host Reza Aslan one week after Aslan called President Trump "a piece of s---" and "an embarrassment to mankind" on Twitter.

"CNN has decided to not move forward with production on the acquired series "Believer with Reza Aslan,'" the network said in a statement. “We wish Reza and his production team all the best."

The Iranian-born Aslan is the host of CNN's "Believer," which aired weekly on Sunday nights. The 45-year-old author and religious scholar also called the president a "man baby" in a subsequent tweet.
