1. have you ever seen him get hit with the taser?
they had him take a hit from one for some report and Anderson Cooper likes the replay it sometimes. It's pretty satisfying to watch.

2. He's mentioned in the premiere issue of Radar Magazine
and he's a classic moron -- too dumb to know he's a moron. Go check it out, it's a stitch.

5. This idiot started....
... here in Miami. He was the original anchor for a television station here that, over ten years ago, was one of the few in the nation that gave birth to the "if it bleeds, it leads" "news" philosophy.

The station is, of course, now a FAUX affiliate.

"Ricky-Ticky," as he's referenced here, is not only fucking dumb as dirt, he's had one failure after another and just keeps rising to the top, like shit in the sewer.

One of his many claims to meida and television "fame" was the showing of a child being brutally whipped by his father - after which Ricky-Ticky attempted justification with the "spare the rod..." rationale. Yet another of dozens of examples of how much of a Republican, fundie tool that he is.

To cap this all off, a number of years ago Ricky-Ticky was involved as a driver in a serious automobile accident here in which the other driver died. There was strong suspicion that alcohol was a contributor on his part but, somehow through his media and Cuban connections, he got away pretty much with a "get out of jail free" card.

He's slime of the highest order.

6. Everytime there are new allegations of corruption in Hialeah...
You guessed it!! Ricky-Ticky's right in the thick of it.

When MSNBC hired him a few years ago, presumably to appeal to the Latin viewer, all I could think was, "This is the best Latin newscaster they could come up with?!?"

10. Yup. First noticed him during the hurricane Andrew coverage...
He was very "man of the people", even sporting a heavy daily five o'clock shadow to show that he had been out in the field and too busy to shave. He was pretty porky back then. Thinned down a lot.
Years later we noticed that MSNBC had him on for a quick second, and then he was gone. Then his own sorta talk show live from Miami, which I couldn't listen to at all because he blatantly had his head up bush's ass the whole time.
Which, I suppose is the reason that CNN decided to bring him back to the "big time".

7. Keith Olbermann was poking fun at Sanchez on tonight's show
You could hear the crew giggling in the background about the quip which involved tasers.

8. Hahahaha - Yet His Career Goes On and ON
He's been a joke for years, crossing across MSRNC and back LOCAL and now BACK to national CNN. He was a DUI perpetrator, besides being a perpetrator against journalism. But he is an EXILE, so he can do NO wrong.

From SNL:

Amy POHLER (as Daryn KAGAN): You're an idiot.

Rick: You're dating Rush (LIMBOsevic).

She: That's private.

He: You've seen Rush NEEEEKKKKKKID, ------------AND----------You LIIIIKKKE it!!!!!!!!
