I fail to see the difference between the network doing it, and the host of a network show doing. But that being said I don't think he should have been suspended
How do you fail to see the difference? The host of a network show is, at the end of the day, an individual with his own opinions and his own thoughts. He has no need to live an "unbiased" life outside the structure of the network he works for.

The network on the other hand, is an entity which is expected to operate impartially, because of the weight and influence it carries as an entity that covers the news.

Huge difference.
