Melissa Francis has been off the air at Fox News and Fox Business since Oct. 7, and it is unclear when — or even if — the “Outnumbered” co-host will return to either network.
A Fox News spokesperson told TheWrap that Francis has not been fired, contradicting a Thursday L.A. Times report that she had been let go after filing a discrimination complaint against the network.
The network also sidestepped why Francis had been off air for the last two weeks. “Fox News Media regularly considers programming changes, including to its daytime lineup, and will launch new formats as appropriate after the election,” Fox News Media said in a statement. “These changes are being made independent of any other ongoing matter.”
Fox News reps would not comment further on the host’s future or the status of any complaint. TheWrap could find no evidence that any legal case was filed outside of Fox News.
Beyond not appearing on her usual shows within the Fox News Media ecosystem, Francis also hasn’t been active on social media in several days. Her most recent tweet, from Oct. 18, said, “Trump will win. I’m not advocating, I’m telling you to mentally prepare. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.”
Trump could move on with this defeat with grace and dignity, but it’s not in him. Trump is popular with so many, he could remake himself as a successful television or media personality, and bail himself out of debt. His ego prevents that, he has no dignity. He’s going down lying, flailing, vindictive, and humiliating himself. Indictment, massive debt, and arrest await Trump as he leaves office. Trump is finished.
ReplyDeletewritten like a true hater. I find it typical to the ruling class that it has decades of demonstrable history promising nirvana to the masses and solutions (beyond welfare) to the ethnic communities communities, all in the face of decades of abject failure in the above venues. Never forget, dear reader, that it was the ruling class who invented the KKK, the "plantation," whose two greatest presidents (Wilson and FDR) segregated the military before each of the world wars. It was the Democrats who defended segregated schools into the early 1960's.
ReplyDeleteWe are left with a politician who has failed for 47 years (prove me wrong) and a black woman who thinks everything is funny, who slept her way to the top . . . as Obama proved when handed full control of our Congress, Dumb and Dumber will get little to nothing down over the course of the next four years. Understand that without exception, everything the Dems complained about over the course of the past four years, they could have "fixed" during the Obama/Biden do nothing years. What a brain-dead joke the Left has become.
