A caller on CSPAN got cut off for saying “colored people” while two minority guests were on air.

During Monday’s Washington Journal, American Urban Radio Networks White House correspondent Ebony McMorris and Politico congressional reporter Nicholas Wu discussed the week ahead in Washington.

“I want to know if we can cut out some of these liberal things that are going on in America, just like on the TV now, we have two minorities. And I’m not against you minorities…,” said the caller as CSPAN host Pedro Echevarria interrupted and said, “Caller, that shouldn’t be a factor. The guests we invite to our program we did invite, so what’s your question or comment for them please?”
