Fox News has indefinitely removed contributor Andrew Napolitano from its programming, following an unsubstantiated claim he made on air last week and that was refuted by U.S. intelligence officials, according to a report.

The Los Angeles Times reported Monday that Napolitano has not made any appearances on Fox since last Thursday.

Fox got their marching orders, same as the rest of the media.

“What if he is correct, would not matter would it?”

No, it would not.

He said Fox had the information, but was unable to cite a source for one of the most politically charged accusations in a long time.

Fox only had him saying it was so.

He didn’t say “I have this info”, he said Fox has the info. Apparently he could not substantiate it even in confidence to his editors.

“On Monday, National Security Agency Director Mike Rogers denied that U.S. intelligence had asked the British to conduct surveillance, and said that it would be against the law.”

Someone in the private security industry in DC told me after Judge Nap made this allegation that ‘we do the British surveillance and they do ours. It’s how Obama got around FISA laws.’

Fox And Friends is good in the morning. President Trump watches it.

Who is more credible Judge Napolitano or British intelligence? FOX management favors British intelligence. Their viewers go with the Judge.

The Judge has 3 Sources. Since when has Fox News been verifying the “Sources” on a reporter? That use “Sources” to attack President Trump all the time.

Oh yeah only when it involves Obama. It’s okay in 99.99999% of every other report.

The Judge should file a law suit for wrongful termination.

What the Judge did was no different than any other reporter with “sources”.

Clinton mentioned it, the Dems mentioned it, the media mentioned this, and now Trump states he was wiretapped, which the left was all saying then they now say no sorry Trump is wrong.

I honestly believe there is a cover up in the intel, and the media are mentioning the Russia thing to deflect attention away from what Clinton actually did , and was exposed as a liar ,and corrupt.

When FOX added Marie Harf to their stable, the fix was definitely in.

That was the last straw.

"Thinking his comment has made Britain mad!"

The British do not have 1st Amendment rights, and that translates directly to the freedom of the press.

The very thing that could of happened did happen under the guise of protection. Knucklehead GW and a Pelosi congress pass it into law and Barry Soetoro use it for his dirty work.

What a mess!

It amazes me that they fire Judge Napolitano over this, yet CNN lets all kinds of crap slide and pass as news!

“He didn’t say “I have this info”, he said Fox has the info””

Fox News Reporters Left and Right always say “Fox has the info”.....

So that is just a BULL$HIT WORD GAME TO COVER THEIR PATHETICE A$$

What REALLY HAPPENED was the Deep State had their FAKE NARRATIVE blow up in their face, and wanted Fox News to fire the Judge for it.

And Fox News obeyed their Deep State Comrades.

GCHQ isn’t admitting to anything. They are on the phone screaming at their counterparts across the pond saying you better make this stop or we’ll blow one of your ops over here.

You can be sure there’s been plenty of mutual back rubbing.
