Fox News Fires Marc Lamont Hill

Did Pressure from Fox News Shareholders force Hill's Firing?

Liberal Fox News analyst Dr. Marc Lamont Hill has been fired, News Corp CEO Rupert Murdoch revealed at a shareholder's meeting Friday.

Murdoch made the announcement after being asked about Hill's "reputation of defending cop killers and racists."

"Relax, y'all. Don't believe the internet rumors," Lamont Hill tweeted earlier today, but he would later confirm the news to the Huffington Post, saying, "I am no longer employed by Fox News and grateful for the opportunity and I have nothing bad to say."

Lamont Hill's credibility as a commentator had been called into question by David Horowitz last month. Read More at Huffington Post

  1. Maybe I am missing something. I've seen him on "Good Day Philadelphia" and read some of his columns in the METRO, and he doesn't come off as liberal.

    Maybe Fox News Corp. fired him for not toting the company line, which in the business world is status quo.
