Report: Fox News Suspends Jeanine Pirro for Two Weeks
Breitbart ^ | March 18, 2019 | Joshua Caplan

Posted on 03/18/2019 1:13:06 PM PDT by Reno89519

The Fox News Channel has suspended Jeanine Pirro’s weekly program —Justice with Judge Jeanine — in response to the conservative host’s recent remarks about Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-MN) use of a hijab, according to a report.

CNN Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter reported Sunday that Pirro’s show was suspended for two weeks, noting that while she may be in the “penalty box,” she has not been fired from the network. Fox News aired a repeat episode of its documentary series Scandalous on Saturday instead of Justice with Judge Jeanine. When asked why Pirro would not appear on air, a Fox News spokesperson told Deadline it would not comment on “internal scheduling matters.”

Pirro was met with criticism after appearing to suggest on her program earlier March that Omar wears a hijab in defiance of the Constitution. “Think about this: She’s not getting this anti-Israel sentiment doctrine from the Democrat Party. So if it’s not rooted in the party, where is she getting it from?” Pirro said in her opening segment. “Think about it. Omar wears a hijab, which according to the Quran 33:59, tells women to cover so they won’t get molested. Is her adherence to this Islamic doctrine indicative of her adherence to Sharia law, which in itself is antithetical to the United States Constitution?”

Hopefully. Excuse me while I go into the next room and click the remote to exit Fox for two weeks.

Murdoch’s idiot liberal son gets a cable company making 1 BILLION a year profit and he starts changing it.

Will she be required to wear a hijab and undergo FGM to show support for Mohammedans?

CNN (un)Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter reported Sunday that Pirro’s show was suspended for two weeks, noting that while she may be in the “penalty box,” she has not been fired from the network.


This may be true, but I’d want to hear it from someone other than CNN’s crackpot, Brian Stelter. How come nobody else is saying how long the suspension if it is one is?

Fox has the integrity of a rigged democrat debate. I personally suspend Fox permanently.

OAN should offer her a contract.

She should not be coming back to a network which offended her for speaking her mind. And her mind spoke exactly the way most of the country felt. Whey penalize someone for speaking the truth?

Hiring Brazile might be a step toward getting Democrat debates.

Yeah, but, she'll insist on getting the questions early so she can hand them over to the democrat contenders, during the primaries and the presidential election.

Anyone have a direct number instead of the generic customer service number that goes nowhere?

How about; Did she and her brother consummate their marriage? Or was it just to scam immigration laws? Can’t be both.

Fox would not dare completely remove Judge Jeanine for that remark, they would lose too much. Even though they have Chris Wallace and Shepard Smith they are not that dumb!

Fine, can they comment on what policies were violated?

I watch a little bit of F&F in the morning (best days are when Kilmeade is gone), and later I tune in for a couple of minutes to look at Sandra Smith for awhile, but that's it for me.

“At least it is just temporary and she will be back.”

She will be back alright. In shackles and chains. So I doubt that she will be worth listening to anymore.
