According to new reports, Greta Van Susteren did not leave her show on Fox News willingly but was abruptly forced out by CEO Murdoch.
Money.cnn.com reported: A sharp knock on the door signaled that Greta Van Susteren's time on Fox News Channel was over.
A courier arrived at Van Susteren's Washington, D.C. home at 9 a.m. Tuesday, hand-delivering two letters that said that Van Susteren "was being taken off the air" immediately, according to her husband, John Coale, who is a high-profile Washington lawyer.
Van Susteren was already planning to leave, but she thought she would be hosting her 7 p.m. program "On the Record" for a few more weeks.
It was also a message from Rupert Murdoch. Van Susteren has been one of the top anchors at Fox News for the past 14 years.
Murdoch, the patriarch of Fox's parent company 21st Century Fox, disliked her recent attempt to renegotiate her contract, and the unusual courier visit was a result of that, said one of the sources interviewed for this story.

“Fair and balanced” with the mask ripped off is, as it always was, “dumb and dumber.”
IMO, she fudged on Trump quite a bit. She tended to focus on the little stupid stuff that the leftist MSM loves to focus on rather than the big picture. Greta came across to me like she was a bit clueless about the whole Trump thing. I think Greta loves America which is why she seemed to be sort of for Trump.
“Prune faced rino Hume was pathetic tonight.”
But at least he’s being reunited with his paramour, Megyn. There is that.
Horrors. Well we on the Right who are supposedly for freedom can't have "discrimination" which is nothing more or less than freedom of choice. Many on the Right have drunk the Leftist Kool Aid.
Where do you get One America News?

Her interviews with Trump and his family were very good.
Fair and Balanced: Dumb and Dumber.
“Look for RSBN to become a channel.”
Wouldn’t that be wonderful? Screw “fair and balanced” Fox. We need an actual America-First station to counter all the others that are putrid liberal bastions.

“Van Susteren was a weird fit for FNC.”
Definitely a cut above the others. She’s smarter and more professional. The only one who didn’t dress like a hooker (although I read that the bimbo clothes were a requirement for some of them). Her interviews were the best — deep, thoughtful, and well organized.
Agreed. From all appearances, unless there were other compelling circumstances we don’t know about, Fox handled this about as badly as I’ve seen any company handling anything with their employees. Fox is showing itself to be a pretty bad egg.
Not sure why, if Murdock is such a Leftist hack, did he allow Fox to become at least a “quasi”-conservative network.
OANN and NEWSMAX were both on my DIRECT TV, but they’ve been removed....
I had my DVR (TIVO) set to save nightly On the Record and Hannity. I couldn’t believe last night when Hume showed up and clumsily talked about Greta not being there anymore. I immediately deleted On the Record from being saved. Pisses me off how they handled that and I don’t care for Hume.
Yep.
Absolutely.
"Fair and Balanced" is "Dumb and Dumber".

Trump is going to win and the rest of us need to do whatever we need to do to overthrow the Left's hold on America's establishments like government, the media, education, the arts and entertainment.
We need to start thinking about America' future and especially 2024. This "movement"/"revolution" needs to be forwarded and continue through the 2024 election. THAT is why Trump's VP is so important. I'm not convinced Pence is the man we need in 2024. Bush is the reason the Reagan Revolution turned into a mere speed bump on our Road to Serfdom and we don't need that to happen in 2024 or America is finished. It will take more than man to do all of this - it will take the Lord God Almighty and I believe God is turning and will turn things around for us.
I get Cable One but I don't know what a sub-creature of att u-verse, iirc is.
I was being just a smidge facetious. It looks to me like Fox ran scared of Grethcen and ran smack dab into a sexual discrimination and possible EEOC violation based on sex and age and replaced a woman with a prune faced RINO male. Seaves them right for running from this and not fighting it. How in the hell was gretchen ever damaged to the tune of $20,000,000? That is absurd and then it is clear at least to me that gretchen demanded Greta be fired!! I think Greta may sue gretchen for interference with contract!! This is not over!! Notice that Fox wiped all of Greta’s webpages!! What did she dio to deserve this?
Wow that is possible . They are both anti-Trump rinos and would be very compatible murdock lackeys.
