Kincaid: Fox News Fires Marc Lamont Hill

You wont be seeing this scene again.

You won't be seeing this scene again soon.

Cliff Kincaid over at Accuracy in Media (AIM) announces Fox News has fired Marc Lamont Hill. Cliff represented AIM at NewsCorp's annual meeting. (”Accuracy in Media is a News Corp. shareholder.”) AIM reports that he asked Rupert Murdoch why someone with Hill's radical views would have a role as a Fox News commentator:

Before Kincaid completed the background for his question, News Corp. chairman Rupert Murdoch interrupted Kincaid to say that he appreciated Cliff's work on this matter, and that Hill had been "fired" last week.

We look forward to confirmation of this report. If accurate, it is a major improvement to Fox News and cable news in general. People of every side of the political spectrum should appreciate a robust debate, but radicals of Marx Lamont Hill's ilk do not merit a seat on the highest rated program in news, The O'Reilly Factor.

David Horowitz started the ball rolling when he questioned why Bill O'Reilly interviewed Hill, a "hip-hop culture" expert, for an entire segment about Iran. Then NewsReal bloggers, Cliff Kincaid, and others began digging... (More after jump.)

Actually, the only thing I watch with any regularity on Fox is Special Report.

Exactly. Who will Fox go to when they need an expert on hip-hop?

Judging by another thread it sounds like Hill’s replacement to support the positions of the left will be Newt Gingrich.

Lamont Hill was Fox’s equivalent of the court jester. What did he do that finally pushed Fox over the line?

I thought that was Juan Williams!

And Gretta is getting better.

We really enjoy Gretta these days. Since her meeting and supporting Sarah, she has been alive and much more conservative! Go Gretta.

The Extreme Makeover of Fox News: Analyst Marc Lamont Hill [far left radical]
Accuracy In Media - AIM Column ^ | October 2, 2009 | Cliff Kincaid

Who would plaster his Twitter page with police mug shot photos of convicted cop-killer Assata Shakur? Fox News contributor Marc Lamont Hill did. At least until David Horowitz and Accuracy in Media took notice and wrote about it. Now the page features photos of boxing great Muhammad Ali. Hill's MySpace page is also gone.

There are other changes as well. The tributes to Shakur and black racist Khallid Muhammad, known as "America's Black Hitler," have disappeared from his web pages. The articles were saved, however, and can be found here.

Greta has been great lately. I did not watch her for a long time, now I make a point to catch her show.

That’s a shame. I like seeing moonbat liberals make a fool of themselves on Fox.

Marc Lamont Hill is a "Black Liberation" revolutionary communist like darn near everyone associated with this president and/or administration.

I’m not a big watcher of FoxNews. I do try to keep my ear to the grindstone so I know what the skinny is on the network, but a daily watcher I am not.

Greta’s show is a lot better than it used to be. When she first started at Fox, just about every show was devoted to the latest missing/kidnapped white woman. Now, she’s much more into politics and interviewing conservative guests.

Yeah. That falls into the “moonbat liberal” category for me.

This might be a good thing, but I hope that Fox doesn’t turn out to be a conservative version of MSNBC. I want to hear both sides of issues as accurately as possible without a lot of garbage sandwiched in between on either side.

Granted, this guy couldn’t find any fault in the O until last week and I’m glad to hear he’s gone, but I hope they replace him.

Well OK, but surely the Fox folks know how to Google you would think!

I used to have no use for Greta at all.
Maybe that’s partly because for a good two years her show did nothing but chase around the true crime stories of Natalee Holloway and Lacey Peterson, and others.
But starting with her outstanding coverage of Sarah Palin and how she’s talked about the political scene for the last year at least, I see her as a real asset, an outstanding reporter and an emimently fair and decent person.
