 Exclusive: TVNewser has learned veteran Fox News Channel anchor E.D. Hill will not be renewed when her current contract expires. Hill, who has been with Fox News for more than 10 years, will continue with the network for the next few months until her current deal expires. 
SVP of Programming Bill Shine tells TVNewser that he "chose not to renew E.D.'s latest contract" but noted that "Hill has been a valued contributor to the success of FNC over the years, and we wish her all the best." 
Hill has been without a regular Fox News program since June 16, when America's Pulse was replaced by two hours of Live Desk. Ten days earlier Hill used the term terrorist fist jab when promoting an upcoming body language segment that was going to look into the primary night fist bump shared by Barack and Michelle Obama. 
For most of her nearly 11 years at FNC Hill anchored Fox & Friends. In 2006 she moved to a late morning program then to the afternoons where, in the months leading up to the election, she'd been filling in on America's Election HQ.

    Fox News is just another business owned by just another liberal.

You have got to be kidding me. Either the Obambi brainwashing has taken over FOX and/or they are just replacing her long term for someone younger. They most likely did the math on her age and looked at all the young 'ons on contract to replace her in the longer term. Even though she looks fantastic, absolutely fantastic for not only her age, but for all the children she has had and is raising. Dang girl :-). My two cents.
