E.D. Hill To Leave Fox News Channel

TV Newser has learned that Fox News anchor E.D. Hill is leaving the channel after her contract was not renewed:

TVNewser has learned veteran Fox News Channel anchor E.D. Hill will not be renewed when her current contract expires. Hill, who has been with Fox News for more than 10 years, will continue with the network for the next few months until her current deal expires.

SVP of Programming Bill Shine tells TVNewser that he "chose not to renew E.D.'s latest contract" but noted that "Hill has been a valued contributor to the success of FNC over the years, and we wish her all the best."

Hill gained notoriety several months ago when she referred to the "pound," "fist bump," or whatever you want to call the handshake that Barack Obama exchanged with his wife Michelle as a "terrorist fist jab."

Recently the Klan' s newspaper has been appearing on door steps on Long Island in New York, apparently there is a drive to recruit new membership to fill their depleted rank. I guess ED could find something to do afterall.

Wow...she must have cost them a bundle. Amazing..that which we used for consumtion can cause so much problems in our lives. I feel for her..it's hard to hide your racist views when you have such a wide venue to vent it through. You would think adults would be more wiser than this. Hannity you are next you hurb!

[newchange]

thank you FOX - it's about time you took some responsibility. You keep hiring these old, ignorant, plastic surgery-ridden bimbos; excluding, Greta Van Susteren. I wish Greta stayed with CNN - she does not belong in FOX's lineup - she's too intelligent. Comments by E.D. Hill divides the country - it was truly unwarranted. Why do "white" people in the USA think they can lie and make derogatory comments about "black" people and think it's acceptable? Apparently, for Ms. Hill and other FOX personnel to lie and speak negatively against black people they must get approval from their bosses.

Are you talking about the Greta Van Susteren who cannot get enough of Sarah Palin? Greta is no different than the rest of Faux Noise. She is a wingnut. And, have you forgotten Greta's plastic surgery when she left CNN? I can understand how you might forget, since she looks like hell.

She will definately move to the last bastion of washed up losers - Talk Radio. Look at Dennis Miller, Kennedy, David Horowitz, Dennis Prager, Hugh Hewitt, Larry Elder. All of them failed to make it on TV and found a safe haven in the meaningless babble of talk radio

[Granmapat]

Now, if we can all get O'Reilly fired, we can breathe as a society of Hope!!

[Solja]

I think Hannity is worse, and much more dangerous. Hannity should be at the top of any list of people who need to go. THEN Billo!

[Bademus]

They are both heinous but I agree that Hannity is even worse. Hannity must go. His ratings are lower than BillO's too.

[anonimost]

happy days are here again, the sun is shining bright again oh, happy....

hmm, she's conspiring with Palin to start up the R e d n e ck network.

"Rouge Cou TV." Shudder.

[Phreejazz]

This is frightening. It's like a conspiracy of the fourth reich.... beautiful women smiling empty smiles while spouting the most vitriolic venom. Hill, Bachmann, Palin.. etc. etc.

[FEDEX]

[Americatortures]

"Terrorist Fist Bumps".....her words...all around!!!

[Americatortures]

Terrorist Fist Bumps all around!!!

[Americatortures]

Another right -wing woman -like Sarah Evita Peron-who hates equal rights for women-especially equal work for equal pay! Now she'll have no work and no pay...just what she deserves!!!

[Oonagh]

She had it coming.........and now she is going.

[RobinSeattle]

....to rightwing talk radio.

[Americatortures]

She's been on with Bill-O the Clown for years!!

[americancolonyinhell]

Well, if we couldn't get Lieberman, at least we got Hill. Payback is sweet.

[jimmy2001]

this would be good if they were firing her because of the lies she spews, but we all know this is because in Faux years she is E.D. "Over-the-HiLL" they going to replace her with someone younger, "blonde-der"and dumber than she is.

[gammygal]

Gee, perfrect for Hasselbeck

[Teeninchee]
