Denver Talk Radio Host Say He Was Fired Mid-Show By Station After Criticizing Trump

Denver Talk Radio Host Say He Was Fired Mid-Show By Station After Criticizing Trump
CNN

Craig Silverman, a former Denver deputy district attorney and radio talk show host, claims he was suddenly fired from his job at a Conservative radio station for criticism of President Donald Trump.

Silverman was discussing the nearly 40 Trump associates criminally indicted (six of whom have been convicted) during his talk show on Denver's 710 KNUS.


That was when he was suddenly taken off the air.

Silverman recounted the firing in a CNN interview.

On Reliable Sources, Silverman said:

"While I'm talking about the association of Donald Trump, Paul Manafort, Roger Stone, Roy Cohn, right as I was making my points about that, the show went dark, the program director came in and said, 'You're done.'"

Notably, Silverman was just stating the fact that numerous people in Trump's tangled web have either been indicted or convicted.

He was inspired to call on Trump loyalists to step up in opposition after the testimony of career diplomat Marie Yovanovitch, the former ambassador to Ukraine who faced a smear campaign from Trump and his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani.

Her subsequent removal set the stage for Trump to pressure Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to publicly announce an investigation into Trump's political rival, former Vice President Joe Biden.

Trump is now facing possible impeachment for the effort, with Yovanovitch's testimony boosting support for his removal.

Though Silverman's bosses didn't like what he had to say, Twitter users agreed with his efforts and decried his firing.







For its part, the station insists that Silverman wasn't fired for anti-Trump statements, but because he appeared on a competing radio show.

Meanwhile, Silverman insists that his contract doesn't forbid him from appearing on any other shows.

Downey Jr. roasted his longtime co-star in spectacular fashion while presenting her with The Hollywood Reporter’s Sherry Lansing Leadership Award, a moment that played less like a formal tribute and more like Tony Stark gently ribbing Pepper for forgetting who Spider-Man is.

Gavin Newsom Just Hilariously Trolled President Trump's New 'Walk Of Fame' With A Brutal One Of His Own

California Governor Gavin Newsom mocked President Donald Trump by riffing off the presidential "Walk of Fame" Trump unveiled in the White House back in September, gifting us the "Presidential Walk of Fatigue" instead.

In September, Trump's assistant Margo Martin shared a video of a hallway filled with the portraits of former U.S. presidents. Martin announced that "The Presidential Walk of Fame has arrived on the West Wing Colonnade," and the video she shared pans over multiple portraits of former presidents before lingering on an image of Biden's autopen signature.
