Marc Lamont Hill Out At Fox
Riehl World View. ^ | Friday, October 16, 2009 | Dan Riehl

Posted on 10/16/2009 1:35:49 PM PDT by anita

Rupert Murdoch continued Fox News Channel's duel with the White House on Friday while also announcing the termination of the network's left-leaning analyst Marc Lamont Hill.

Murdoch also said that Hill has been fired. He revealed the move after a shareholder had raised the question of how Hill was hired, citing his "reputation of defending cop killers and racists."

Hill, a frequent guest on "The O'Reilly Factor"

YAY! I’ll never have to look at Lamont’s smarmy face again, or be annoyed by his rude behavior!

You mean Murdoch paid that lunatic to spew his hatred of all things white on Fox? And they say that BANKS are making bad investments...!

Now, if they will quit giving Al Sharpton face time, all will be well. (Much better anyway).

Marc Lamont Hill was, above all other things, painfully predictable. If you heard his opinion once, you heard it a thousand times. The guy was literally a broken record.

He was funny on Red Eye but really had no business being given a job on Fox to begin with. Now MSNBC will be rushing to hire him and he will be on Olbermann every night bashing Fox and O’Reilly.

My wife is dancing on the kitchen table. This guy got really crazy when he moved to Columbia. It was really outrageous when Fox had him on the Saturday business/economic shows recently...

According to Marc’s Twitter page, it’s apparently not true:

He revealed the move after a shareholder had raised the question of how Hill was hired

Conservatives should keep this in mind as we call out statists in boycotts or other efforts.

An note or email from a "stockholder" carries weight. Check all your investments. You would be surprised who you "own" and can legitimately claim to be a stockholder.

Even if you only a small amount, being a stockholder provides you privilieges that may include direct access to the CEO/BoD and communication with the other stockholders...lots of stockholders that might think [evil, conservative thoughts] just like you.

Wow. That’s great. A little “balance” is OK if they keep it within bounds. But we don’t need no terrorist lovers or Communist race baiters. This guy is to liberal commentary what a Klu Klux Klan boss would be to “conservative” commentary. We don’t need either kind of extremist.

This is good!

He never said anything on the air that made any sense. Just as bad, he intentionally talked so fast and continuously that it was painful to listen.

He was so unfair in his analysis that if a wild hog ran into his car he would claim it was an anti-black, anti islamic plot wipe out an Obama supporter - then he would blame the whole episode on Bush.

” A little “balance” is OK if they keep it within bounds. “

Fox would have had to dig up a KKK Grand Kleagle from the 50’s to balance out Hill....

i cannot stand that looney.

however, giving him a forum on Foxnews showed a lot of people just how silly and misguided he and his ilk are.

i fear he will become even more of a loon now, just on a less-watched network where the hosts share his view. although i hope his being on Fox for so long will not endear him to other anchors.

Maybe, now if they throw out the totally unbearable Bob Beckel then I would agree that’s waht is going on. Thank God Fox isn’t scared of the zer0 administration. I think Fox should rid themselves of all commies and dems and liberals and be free to host who the heck they want and WE want to hear. I am sick of “independents and moderates and liberals” with their condescending “I want to hear both sides of an argument before I make up my mind” when someone is stealing me blind I don’t need to hear why he’s doing it to decide right from wrong.

He’s the one who wanted to flip the electoral college members during the 2000 post-elections if I recall correctly. I don’t care if he were Hannity’s blood brother I switch him off too.

Just now sent a note to O’Reilly telling him not to be sad that his favorite Commie, Activist, Far Left spokesperson got fired. I always shut him off whenever this idiot appeared.
