Fox news host Jeanine Pirro confirmed she was suspended from her Fox show in March over comments she made about Rep. Ilhan Omar, and that she is uncertain about her future with Fox News.
Pirro was speaking to former White House aide Sebastian Gorka during a commercial break on his live radio show, America First, on Sept. 3.
Pirro said that she was told not to speak with other media outlets by her supervisors at Fox News.
Fox reviews everything. Theyre unbelievable, she said. Theyre still saying you cannot do Bill OReilly, you cannot do Newsmax.
Im worried that that suspension was the basis to tee up for anything I do wrong, theyll fire me, she said.
To that Gorka replied, Keep doing what you do.
Gorkas show is broadcast on his website and on YouTube. Pirros conversation with Gorka could be heard on the YouTube broadcast of the show even during the commercial break.
Pirro was abruptly removed in March from Fox News programming after she questioned the loyalty of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) in one of her popular segments on Fox News.
Omar wears the hijab, which according to the Quran 33:59, tells women to cover so they wont get molested, Pirro said during her Opening Statement segment on March 10. Is her adherence to this Islamic doctrine indicative of her adherence to Sharia law, which in itself is antithetical to the United States Constitution?
After it became evident that Pirros regular Saturday appearance on Fox had been canceled, the station released a formal statement: We strongly condemn Jeanine Pirros comments about Rep. Ilhan Omar. They do not reflect those of the network and we have addressed the matter with her directly.
After a two week absence from the show, Pirro made a statement about the controversy.
Ive seen a lot of comments about my opening statement from Saturday nights show and I did not call Rep. Omar un-American. My intention was to ask a question and start a debate, but of course because one is Muslim does not mean you dont support the Constitution, Pirro said. I invite Rep. Omar to come on my show any time to discuss all of the important issues facing America today.
President Donald Trump, of whom Pirro has been a staunch defender on her show, sent out a message on Twitter upon hearing the news.
Bring back @JudgeJeanine Pirro. The Radical Left Democrats, working closely with their beloved partner, the Fake News Media, is using every trick in the book to SILENCE a majority of our Country. They have all out campaigns against @FoxNews hosts who are doing too well.
Fox must stay strong and fight back with vigor. Stop working soooo hard on being politically correct, which will only bring you down, and continue to fight for our Country. The losers all want what you have, dont give it to them. Be strong & prosper, be weak & die!
Stay true to the people that got you there. Keep fighting for Tucker, and fight hard for @JudgeJeanine. Your competitors are jealous they all want what youve got NUMBER ONE. Dont hand it to them on a silver platter. They cant beat you, you can only beat yourselves!
If Tucker goes I will probably cancel.
I never regarded Fox as a conservative voice - just as I never regarded the Kochs as conservative businessmen.
Fox is Neocon Establishment, which is why I never watched it much, and stopped altogether in 2011 - long before the NeverTrump cavalcade, or the new owners/operators.
Then explain to me why she has been a regular on the morning shows for the past week and more?
Her suspension was only for two weeks back in March and everybody knew damn well why she was suspended.
So yes, this is old news..........
Pirro outed herself as a Gun Grabber on her Show a few weeks back. She buys into that “common sense” gun control crappola.
I like her, she’s feisty, but she is not a true Conservative.
I watch only two shows on Fox News. Jeanine Pirro’s and Mark Levin’s. If they want to cut my Fox viewing in half then they can go ahead and can Pirro.
I'm already 100% gone.
Levin, in particular, does some great shows.
And the sons both married Hillary supporters!
Bring back a Roger Ailes clone to run it.
Bring back a Roger Ailes clone to run it.
No big loss with Cucker
I believe that PDJT should find a nice place for her on the Federal bench in NY.
Bump
She would make a good FCC commissioner, and fight fake
news with fines, and changing the rules on libel.
That would be a great fit for the good judge.
RE Federal Bench:
Not a bad idea...
But I was thinking her presence in the House or the Senate especially would be awesome. She fights. She’d be in their faces constantly.
Can you picture her mopping the floor with Omar, Tblet, and AOC? I can.
Some of the owners/leaders of the Fox system are just plain cowards and squishs.
Hope Fox viewers let them know that their cowardice and attacks on decent Americans like Judge Pirro will cost them viewers and their sponsors, customers.
.
omar married her brother, cheated on her other husband, hates Jewish people, supports antifa terrorists and Jeanine Pirro the bad person according to foxnews execs?..... !
