RATIO’D: CNN’s Dumbest Tweet Ever | Steve Berman


Opinion Contributor

One of my favorite aphorisms is “in the race to the bottom, there is no bottom.” But I think this tweet asymptotically approaches the singularity of stupid at the core of racial offense.  The replies here are spot-on and well-deserved.
