Buh bye. Fox fires Lou Dobbs

[Lemon Drop]

Not gonna help with those lawsuits, but it's a start.

[RgrF]

Dobbs checks his iPhone and finds 27 unread messages from NEWSMAX; 12 from OAN and 3 from the newly forming PATRIOT network. :offair:

[Lemon Drop]

No fox money or fame in those broadcast backwaters.

[Ombligo]

only four years too late

I never understood why FOX decided to allow a business reporter transform himself into a political commentator. What were his qualifications besides being a rabid hater of liberals?

Of course, I also wonder how Chris Wallace has managed to keep his scalp at FOX either.

Dobbs had been a political commentator prior to moving to Faux Business Channel. Anyway, good!

Well, there was Keith Olbermann, remember him? He came from the sports world.

Lou Dobbs spent a lot of years being a perfectly adequate journalist. He helped launch CNN when it was basically a shoestring operation. That makes him a pioneer

It was Bill Clinton, especially his second term that shifted him. He hated him. Barack Obama broke him. Coo Coo ever since.

He also started Space.com after leaving CNN.

One of the original birthers. And eventually a member of Trump’s shadow Cabinet, sometimes getting calls daily, during policy meetings and so on. He rode the tiger as far as it would take him.
