Kudos to Fox News for officially canning its former news host, E.D. Hill. You may recall Hill as the anchor who made the truly idiotic comment about then-Sen. Barack Obama sharing a “terrorist fist jab” with his wife, Michelle.
The remark cost Hill, a 10-year Fox News veteran, her time slot as the host of “America’s Pulse.” TVNewser now reports that Fox will not renew Hill’s contract when it expires in a few months.
It’s nice to see Fox finally cracking down on at least one on-air personality who casually made insane and baseless statements about Obama’s supposed ties to terrorist activities.
Unfortunately, it appears that Sean Hannity will still provide a platform for any crackpot who wants to spout blatant lies and conspiracy theories about the president-elect.
He still gets good ratings.
