Andrea Tantaros taken off the air at Fox News
americanthinker. ^ | April 29, 2016 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 04/30/2016 8:12:09 AM PDT by MarvinStinson

Speculation abounds as Fox News talking head Andrea Tantaros is no longer appearing on air.

In response to a query from TV Newser, Fox issued a terse statement:

“Issues have arisen regarding Andrea’s contract, and Fox News Channel has determined it best that she take some time off. She is still under contract with the network.”

That opens the question of what could have changed regarding her contract all of a sudden.

The Examiner opens a few doors on what might (or might not) be at issue with Tantaros and the network:

While not cited by FNC as a reason for her extended vacation, Tantaros recently claimed during a taping of Outnumbered that certain GOP Establishment-types were coming down hard on her for supporting Donald Trump; "Specifically, Charles Cooke, who is a writer for National Review, he tweeted out that I should give my job to somebody else. Also, a meme by Kevin Williamson of National Review trying to make me seem stupid. I should give up my job according to men in the Republican Party."

In the midst of the Obama Administration's less-than-kosher investigations of certain journalists, Tantaros held little back.

As cited by the NewsHounds.us weblog, while on the air, Tantaros stated quite plainly, "This is Obama’s America. It’s like the Soviet Union. He said he’d change the country. He said it, he said it, he said it, and a lot of people voted for him. And if you see any of those people today, do me a favor, punch 'em in the face. We’ll be right back."

FOX, FOX, FOX...

you continue to double down on stupid.

I cut the cable shortly after the hit job they did during the first debate. So did almost everyone I know.

This is further proof that no mistake was made.

Andrea is one of the reasons why I would still tune to Fox now and then.

I like what she says and yes...... she is smoking hot.

...and there you have it, ladies and gentlemen. Another Trumpist advocating *gasp* violence.

Everyone knows that the ONLY person permitted to make violent threats on Fox is Jerry Rivers

I read newshound article, and they speculated that Andrea was fired/suspended for a book she is working on. I also agree with her sentiments about America under Obama. Even though I don’t support Trump — the is my favorite snd she might be fired :(

Cooke didn’t like that she didn’t have a phony British accent and Williamson must have suspected she had come from the working class of America. So, she must go!

I hope all of these national review people leave for England after Trump’s election

Andrea Tantaros and Geraldo Rivera Tear Into Each Other About German Refugee Crisis

Published on Jan 12, 2016

Today, Outnumbered favorite Geraldo Rivera appeared on the show as this episode’s #OneLuckyMan, but as the segment devolved into an argument with Andrea Tantaros, he probably wasn’t feeling very lucky at all.

The topic turned to refugees and the conversation stalled when the panelists brought up the sexual assault “inferno” happening in Germany, which Chancellor Angela Merkel has been tripping over herself to combat.

Watch above as Rivera and Tantaros yell at one another. As a bonus for your lunchtime, pay close attention to Rivera’s quickly-reddening visage and the tortured expression on Meghan McCain‘s face as she sits between them, clearly wishing she were anywhere else.

Watch the video,via Fox News.

Nosuchinsky on Red Eye is a hot non-blonde. Some other brunette was on there a week or two ago - equally hot. Not sure of her name though.

I think it had more to do with the Trump support. Murdoch is an open borders guy.

She’s not the one on that show “The Five,” is she? Or is that Jennifer somebody? I confess to not watching FOX News. I typically stick to FOX Business Channel.

She is outspoken and doesn’t shut up when they give her the subtle clue that’s what she’s supposed to do. She must have pissed off the wrong/right person who issued an ultimatum. My bet would be Megyn Kelly, since she is the current prima donna and has made noises about leaving. O’Reilly doesn’t operate this way, if he did there’d be no one left to do his show.
