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"
gonna miss ya...not
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...

Agreed. What a clown! To even put these imbeciles on one’s TV station gives them a credibility they do not deserve.
affirmative action intellectual
Shot across Lib Dem bow????
Yeah that too ;)
According to Marc’s Twitter page, it’s apparently not true:
“Relax, y’all. Don’t believe the internet rumors.about 3 hours ago from web”

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.
How does O'Reilly feel about it? ;^)
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 move is long overdue!
Don’t let the door hit ya where the dog shoulda bit ya...
OUTSTANDING!
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.
Fair and Balanced.....
” 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 switch the channel on Bob Beckel...can’t stand him
Now that’s funny!
True though.
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.
