Bye-bye, Ana. It’s been nice watching you defend our nation against aggressive immigration policies. Perhaps your emotional interest in how our government has handled immigration in recent months has been the deal breaker that led to your decision to leave. We get it!

I wonder if there is any way to pull back the proverbial curtains to learn what’s really happening to America’s mainstream media. In recent years and months, one might be able to compare the industry’s instability to a violent earthquake. What’s worse is that the metaphoric earthquake is accompanied by unpredictable and relentless aftershocks. Perhaps the ongoing shakeups are a reflection of traditional media’s failing popularity and consumer demand. Although we don’t often hear the media’s own analysts and talking heads discuss its industry’s prognosis, the reality is that social media has chipped away at traditional media’s stronghold in the news space. Now Ana, another powerful voice among the media’s top news anchors, has decided to “vacate” her anchor seat. Despite the anchor’s attempt to address the public about her decision to leave, many fans may still be baffled by her abrupt departure because the statement appears vague and disingenuous.

All things considered, I wonder who will be the next expendable Negro following the purge of Melissa Harris-Perry, Tiffany Cross, and Joy-Ann Reid from their anchor seats. Let’s hope Michael Steele is not abruptly purged for appearing too manly and “Negro-ish” for the network and its audience to stomach. Needless to say, heterosexual Negro anchors who are male may not be a viable proposition in terms of the network’s hidden agendas. I hope that I’m proven wrong about the latter.
