Fox Rebukes Sean Hannity’s and Jeanine Pirro’s Participation in a Trump Rally

New York Times ^ | November 6, 2018 | Fox Rebukes Sean Hannity’s and Jeanine Pirro’s Participation in a Trump Rally

...

"The participation of the Fox hosts in a political rally struck even executives at the network as inappropriate. “Fox News does not condone any talent participating in campaign events,” the network said in a statement on Tuesday. “We have an extraordinary team of journalists helming our coverage tonight, and we are extremely proud of their work. This was an unfortunate distraction and has been addressed.”

I don’t watch Faux News.

[Lisbon1940]

Fox doesn’t understand about opinion journalists.

[LeonardFMason]

ESAD Murdoch Boys!

They are TALK SHOW HOSTS! Not Journalists.

“Bold talk from a one’d fat man”

If Fox is so upset, let’s see them fire Hannity, their #1 ad-dollar generator...

If not the Murdocks can just pull their pussyhats over their ears and shut up.

[shelterguy]

Yup. They don’t report the news. They express their opinion on political topics.

[rktman]

Dun de dun dun.

[CMailBag]

Note that Fox never rebukes a-holes like Phillipe RainAss is telling.

[Scott from the Left Coast]

Fox should take them off and see what happens to their audience...not that any cable news network gives a whit about audience size. They make their money out of packages.

[bigbob]

dammit, the Duke quote was autocorrected, which is a sin:

“Bold talk from a one eye’d fat man”.

[Red Badger]

Sean always says he is not a ‘journalist’....................

[Red Badger]

Suspicious packages....................

[Carriage Hill]

FauxNews doesn’t understand a lot of things.

[VRWCarea51]

Evidently those Jack asses running the place are blind to Shepard Smith’s full fledged on air, Daily Rat Campaign.

[Ann Archy]

WE NEED A NEW STATION!!!

[Scott from the Left Coast]

Yeah, cable packages a certainly suspicious...forced participation

[Ted Grant]

Goodnight, Irene.

I liked how Trump introduced Pirro as “Justice” Pirro, like he promoted her to the Supreme Court.

[LostInBayport]

First Hannity was going to be there, then Hannity says no, then he shows up.

I’m guessing he got an ultimatum from FOX and was going to follow it but at the last minute chose to ignore it. Good for him. He and Pirro probably have enough money if FOX should fire them (and Hannity has his radio show).

Cable television is a dying medium anyway. Yes, I cut the cord years ago (and don’t miss it one iota).

[Ann Archy]

FIRE SHEMP SMITH!!! He is TOTALLY BIASED!!!

[gattaca]

Trump invited them. Screw Fox.
