Fox Suspends Stacey Dash, Ralph Peters for On-Air Profanity

[PROCON]

Fox has suspended commenters Stacey Dash and Ralph Peters for two weeks after two separate instances of on-air profanity while criticizing President Obama.

Peters referred to the president as a common slang for female anatomy when he appeared on Fox Business Network on Monday morning. His comments were not "bleeped," although Peters was reprimanded on-air by host Stuart Varney. Peters then apologized for his prior language.

Later on Monday, Dash said that Obama "doesn't give a s--t" about terrorism during the show Outnumbered. Dash's comments were partially censored.

Shep was so offended he demanded FOX News designate a Safe Place for him to console himself.

But Øbama IS a pussy.

Stacey “The Dish” Dash, she isn’t a lawyer or Politician but she has common sense. Give her her own show, she makes Me Gyn look like a little boy.

Stacey, keep speaking your mind, and looking soo hot you raise the temperature in any room you enter.

[Cyman]

Thank the Lord they didn’t say Islamic terrorist or who knows what would be done to those two miscreants.

[crz]

OH! I aint gonna have any knuckles left.

[savedbygrace]

Lying on air is apparently acceptable, but profanity?

Oh noes!

[SoFloFreeper]

....yeah, they shouldn’t have used those specific words on air. They could have said something similar, not been suspended, and still delivered the message loud and clear.

Didn’t that liberal that writes books about what he learned on the campaign trail once call BO a dick?

I don’t remember if they took him off MSNBC a few weeks to think about his potty mouth.

BTW, nice touch about the umbrella drink. I am collecting FReepers remarks about Ms. Dash, to read to my husband later and give him a laugh.

IF there is a next time. We might have reached the end of the line.

To #31: Stacy Dash will never “fall flat” because there will always be some FR gentleman to catch her.

She gets more gorgeous with age though she was a looker in “Clueless” years ago.

I like Col. Ralph Peters. He’s one of the few military commentators to tell it like it is and his prescriptions for fighting our enemies have been right on.

I know that the younger military vets on Fox News secretly agree with him. This old VN/Cambodia journalist has agreed with him since I first heard him years ago.

He’s got guts, balls, common sense and military experience. More than the whole damned White House put together.

I think that Joe Biden’s “Battle of the Lunch Buckets” really doesn’t count.

And re Obama, smoking a dooby doesn’t count as coming under fire.

...Peters referred to the president as a common slang for female anatomy...well, I don't know about that - there is the successful novel of decades past, "Herzog" by whatsisname, about the poor fellow going through all sorts of tribulations such as a tough divorce who wandered around trying to reassure himself that the world really was a wonderful place and every one was his friend if only he'd be nice to them, repeating the old childhood ditty
"I love little pussy,
Her coat is so warm.
And if I don't harm her
She'll do me no harm."
Maybe that's what Peters was talking about.....

[Gamecock]

Well done!

[Boomer One]

Both deserve a raise for honesty!

[cpdiii]

Thank you Colonel Peters and Ms Dash.
F-— Faux News

ps
Ms. Dash you are smocking hot. I hope to hear and see both you and Colonel Peters on the news in the future if FAUX news comes to their senses.

Dear Fox News,

I just want to let you idiots know that I was watching Outnumbered this afternoon when Stacy Dash said that Obama doesn’t give a “shit.”  He doesn’t and you have lost me for the duration of her suspension, if not forever.  It’s refreshing, not objectionable, to hear a media personality state what everyone with an IQ above room temperature knows and believes. Fox News should stop trying to emulate CNN

[cpdiii]

should read as “smoking” hot. Her beauty befuddled my fingers on the keyboard.

[The Cajun]

Bad, bad-bad move FAUX.

[Jane Long]

Lowry said “balls” on the same network and they did nothing. Oh, that’s cuz he was criticizing Trump not our terrorist-sympathizing president.

Good point!!

Fox Hypocrites.

Any excuse to promote 0blama/establishment and go after the ones calling out 0 and the establishment.

Telling, isn’t it?

[Eagles6]

Good.

[Roman_War_Criminal]

I’m starting to see why Lt. Col. Peters never got his bird. Too non-PC for the a$$ kissing political officers.

As for Dash...I bet she’s just riding the “conservative” gravy train for now. 3 divorces, voted for Obama....what else is there to say?
