Oh dear! Former CNN host Soledad “Special Snowflake” O’Brien was reportedly in negotiations with Al-Jazeera America last month.

Confirmation came Monday morning that she has been hired by the network.

Soledad is apparently quite excited about it. She keeps retweeting the news in a fit of self-squeeing:

Special correspondent! Well, she is a Special Snowflake, isn’t she? Jammie Wearing Fool points out that the network hilariously said that Soledad totally “cares deeply about covering the human side of a story based solely on the facts.”
Facts! Stop, our aching sides! If by “facts,” they mean “liberal talking points.”

Indeed they do. Twitter users gasp for breath over the news:
