Fox Business on Sunday said it pulled an episode of "Lou Dobbs Tonight" that contained what critics said was anti-Semitic sentiment just a day after a gunman killed 11 people in a synagogue in Pittsburgh.
In the segment, Judicial Watch official Chris Farrell claimed a Central American migrant caravan moving towards the U.S. southern border is being funded by the "Soros-occupied State Department." Farrell was referencing George Soros, a Jewish billionaire and political activist who routinely funds Democratic candidates and initiatives.
“We condemn the rhetoric by the guest on Lou Dobbs Tonight. This episode was a repeat which has now been pulled from all future airings," Fox Business senior vice president of programming Gary Schreier said in a statement.
A spokeswoman said Farrell "will no longer be booked on Fox Business Network or Fox News Channel."
Soros was one of the Democratic political figures targeted by pipe bombs in the mail earlier this week. A Florida man was arrested on Friday in connection with the shipments.

I wonder what this Mr Gary Schreier thinks about $oros' assisting Nazis, to find Jewish people in hiding, during WWII.
Is that NOT anti-semetic, to Gary?
This is nuts. There’s a difference in criticizing someone for what they do, versus criticizing them for what they are.
So you can’t call a Sonderkommando what he is anymore on Fox News?
Someone call Telford Taylor
I haven’t watched FNC in a year now.
The evidence was piling up all through Trump’s campaign.
Thanks for the ping. This is pure insanity. Criticism of someone for what they do is not the same as hating them for what they are.
OANN is great.
I wish some wealthy conservative(s) would give them an influx of funds, to help with their programming and expand their news services....especially, now!!
They tend to repeat the same stories, over, after about 45 mins, which can be somewhat annoying, if you’re keeping it on for the day (like many, including me, used to do, with Fox).
They have several great special programs that expose the left. They deserve viewership AND some good funding.
Rush....Hannity....Levin....DeSouza, etc.....pick up the white courtesy phone. Your country is calling.
Soros cant be criticized because he is Jewish?
This has got nowhere good to go...
Apparently. The left finds it useful to wall off their communist, sugar daddy from criticism. Soros is at the root of the plot to undermine the western civilization. The left cannot not erase his finger prints.
We need to break up the leftist MSM monopolies. I turned off Fox a couple years ago, and Drudge. My blood pressure has gone way down. ;)
Fox News is looking for a reason to Fire Lou Dobbs. He is a true Nationalist/Populist and Fox can’t have that.
I see CNN-like irrelevance in their future.
This is the same sentiment that labeled many of us racist because we vehemently disagreed with the policies and ideas of Obama. It wasn’t his skin color I ever objected to. Soros is Jewish. So what? It’s what he, the man stands for, what he does.
It’s the policies, stupid. And Soros policies have a broad reach across the world.
Makes no sense unless Soros is a large stock holder in News Corp.
Oh...
5.56mm
Exactly heights. I was wondering when FOX would go after Lou Dobbs. This is just absurd!
Didn't he claim to be an atheist? What exactly does Judaism or Christianity or Islam etc. mean when someone declares themselves an atheist?
Fux News has been liberal for a while now.
Regular Fox channel was spewing the enemedia lies about the fake bomber this hour. Turned on American Pickers intead. All media is propaganda. Unwatchable (yes for a long time already).
Yep.
I know.
This is an entirely new low, though.
Banning someone because they told the truth about Sorass? He IS funding this. A Campbell’s soup executive got fired, for saying the same thing.
Welcome to the German ‘30’s.
I haven’t had FauxNews on, all day, except for Maria, this morning.
What were they saying about the fake bomber? That he’s a proTrump crazy? Did they mention that he just recently changed his political affiliation, by chance?
