There is a difference between being fiery and crossing a line, and controversial talk radio host Alex Jones crossed that line when he deemed the liberal news network MSNBC the "Klu Klux Klan" channel.

"You turn on MSNBC, it’s like the Ku Klux Klan channel, but it’s from a liberal perspective," Jones argued on his own radio show on Friday. "Just race, everything race."

"I’m so sick of it!" he shouted continuing his tirade against MSNBC. "I’m so tired of it. Shut up! I wasn’t raised like that. Nobody I know is. I’m sick of it. They just want everybody at each other’s throats while they’re robbing us. And it’s all a giant hoax."

A recent poll by the Pew Research Center did reveal MSNBC as the most opinionated news station finding 85 percent of its content in 2012 was opinion-related.



And while much of this opinionated content is race-related, comparing something to the "Klu Klux Klan" — a hate group where many of its members were convicted for the murder of African Americans — is unwarranted.

Recently, Jones made many gun advocates proud when he passionately defended the Second Amendment to CNN host Piers Morgan. Jones is also the brains behind the White House petition to deport Morgan after the CNN host continued to bash gun owners.

But in this case, the radio host slipped up when he compared MSNBC to a group not only associated with racism, but violence and murder. The KKK is still a sensitive subject for many and Jones should issue less cringe-worthy insults next time.

It can't be that hard to find ways to skewer the liberal news station. It is MSNBC after all.
