Fox News Gives E.D. Hill A "Terrorist Fist Jab"... Out The Door!

Fox News Channel's E.D. Hill shopping for a new job...

Poor Edith. (Yes E.D. Hill's real first names are "EDITH ANN" No wonder she tried to add some spice and intrigue to her bland blondeness by calling herself "E.D.")

She served her Fox News puppet-masters faithfully for 10 long years. Blithely sniping, sneering, smearing anyone to the left of Genghis Khan. Through the hyped-up Clinton "scandal," the belittling of Al Gore, Joe Lieberman (until she was told that Joe was now a "good guy" for Fox), John Kerry, Max Cleland, Paul Wellstone, Hillary Clinton and of course Barack Obama.

Of course she served her Fox puppeteers a little too well in the middle of June this year when she characterized Barack and Michelle Obama's celebratory salute as a "terrorist fist jab" and was forced to apologize. (Her apology had all the sincerity of one of Chris Matthews' apologies when he is caught allowing his venal Clinton hatred to spill down his pants.)

But what has that loyalty to the Fox-Republican-Conservative-Neanderthal cause bought E.D. Hill?

Nothing. Nada. Zip.

She has been dumped by Fox News which just decided not to renew her contract.

"I smeared every Democrat, progressive and liberal in America for ten years and all I got for it was this lousy pink slip?!"

Yup sorry E.D. -- you're over the Hill.

At the age of 47 you've served your purpose. You've been used by Roger Ailes & Co to be the token blonde hate-spewer.

Now there are dozens more blonde hate-spewers being cranked out of the Fox News laboratories. Presumably cloned from a piece of Ann Coulter's DNA. (Possibly her brain cell).

Each one more blonde, more superficially attractive in that vacuous, faux model way. And more clueless. Stepford Conservatives -- programmed to go off at Democrats, liberals and progressives.

Fox even gave her their classic disingenuous goodbye:

Fox News Channel Senior Vice President of Programming -- Bill Shine: "We chose not to renew E.D.'s latest contract. Hill has been a valued contributor to the success of FNC over the years, and we wish her all the best."

Yeah right! "All the best" What?!

Edith has every right to be mad at them after being dumped for newer, younger dummies.

Poor E.D. Hill. It's almost as if she has been tarred and boxed up -- ready for retirement.

Which is perhaps apt for someone born as EDITH ANN TARBOX.

(She got the "Hill" part from her third husband -- one "Joe Hill".)

This would be a salutary warning for any of the other E.D. Hill lookalikes being churned out of the Fox labs -- but alas they are not programmed to think for themselves.

So they too can look forward to being given a "Terrorist Fist Jab" - out of Fox News when their usefulness (or youthful looks) are deemed over the Hill.

I guesss the idea at Fox is to do propaganda without making a caricature of yourself. Once you cross the line into caricature as in "terrorist fist jab" you are out the door.

Fox has no shame. I am glad that at least 53% of america is on to the ruse of fox news. She was so hate filled. Why is fox still so popular?

There are what, 200 million adult Americans, and at the most around 6 million might tune in every now and them to watch a real controversial show. That is about 3% of the population. I don't really see that as a complete threat. There are 5 times as many watching all the so called, in Faux speak, liberal news shows on cable and the networks.

At first, I thought that even Faux News had limits on malicious slandering. I stand corrected. Couldn't have happened to a not-so-very-nicer person.

Third marriage? Ah, a strong supporter of holy matrimony I see.

God is no doubt pleased.

Well faux news (yes I just ordered my t-shirt last week) is as cold and heartless, as it is false and irrelevent. I guess that should not surprise me all things considered. Why does anyone work for them again?

[Libbydoe]

Sometimes, there is justice.

[Pavane]

Agreed.
