Fire Richard Cohen


Fire Richard Cohen
The Issue
Richard Cohen's columns are filled with racist assumptions and statements that have no place at The Washington Post. The latest instance is his assertion that the "conventional view" is to gag at interracial relationships (nevermind that 87% of Americans disagree). He previously wrote that a fear of Trayvon Martin was "understandable" given the way he was dressed at the time of his death. These views are reprehensible, and The Washington Post should not provide Richard Cohen with a platform to espouse his racist beliefs. Tell Jeff Bezos, owner of The Washington Post - It's time to fire Richard Cohen.
