Pirro Takes A Powder



One of the Fux Channel's most prominent Islamophobic race baiters, Jeanine Pirro, was nowhere to be seen in her 9 p.m. slot last night. The super-shrieker had stepped on her white sheets last week when she blasted the hijab worn by Rep. Ilhan Omar (MN) as somehow antithetical to the Constitution (ed.- the First Amendment?), and even Fux was forced to rebuke her (but not fire her, sadly). Her absence yesterday was likely in consideration of Friday's mass killing of Muslims in New Zealand, leaving Pirro with nothing to rant about during her hour-long hate-fest.

Unfortunately, this will be a temporary pause for Pirro and her bigoted spewing because Fux knows she's popular with the bigoted mouth-breathers that make up her audience, and that of Fux. So no matter how brief, savor the moment of sanity.

BONUS: Bigot-In-Chief Trump comes to Pirro's defense. Of course he would.

If it were up to FOX news viewers, Pirro would get a raise, just like they would want for Tucker Carlson. These hothead commentators are giving their fans exactly what they want: xenophobic, misogynistic, racist hate speech to reassure their terrible beliefs. But fortunately, broader feedback has prevailed and these rotten people get a little blowback. We have to continue fighting back against FOX broadcasting because they're powerful and invasive in their brainwashing.

donnah -- If Fox were to lose significant advertising revenues, they'd take notice. Unfortunately, there's a hard right core of support that will tune in no matter what, and right wing-owned advertisers like MyPillow will put up the money. But bleeding Fox of any amount of advertising dollars is a very worthy cause.
