Opinion| It has been reported by the Gateway Pundit that an inside source with “intimate knowledge” of the current situation taking place at Fox News involving host Judge Jeanine Pirro has stated that two of the network’s hoses “secretly maneuvered to get Judge Jeanine Pirro suspended over her controversial remarks about Muslim Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), with one, Bret Baier, allegedly seeking to curry favor with Democrats to reverse a decision to not allow Fox to host any of the party’s presidential primary debates by getting Fox to suspend Pirro.”
The source asked the Gateway Pundit to remain anonymous, stating the following:
The original complaint came from Bret Baier’s team. Bret saw an opportunity to make Fox News acceptable enough to the left, so he could get himself a job of hosting the Democratic Debates. Bret supported one of his producers, Hufsa Kamal, in tweeting out a condemnation of Judge Jeanine to put pressure on Fox News to suspend her show. Hufsa Kamal, a producer of Special Report with Bret Baier, has a history of anti-conservative tweets.
Shepard Smith, known as a “never-Trumper”, also played a major role in the Judge’s suspension. “He lobbied 24/7 to suspend her.”
Fox News placed Jerry Andrews, a far-left, anti-conservative as Executive Producer of Justice with Judge Jeanine to “muzzle Judge Jeanine from speaking the truth.” Andrews has a long history of anti-conservative, anti-Trump social media activity.
No official statements have been made by Fox News Network as of yet regarding Judge Jeanine’s current situation or future at the network beyond stating that they would not be commenting on “internal scheduling matters.” This brief statement came after Pirro’s show was suspended from the air abruptly this past weekend.
It seems that by Fox’s silence, Pirro’s future at the network may be in jeopardy.
It was announced on Monday that the network was planning on bringing on former Democratic National Committee Chair Donna Brazile as a new contributor on the network. In 2016, Brazile was busted when working for CNN after secretly feeding debate questions to then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
The Gateway Pundit reports, “Anonymous sources at Fox relayed to reporters at CNN and the New York Times on Sunday that Pirro has been suspended for two weeks for her comments about Omar and a possible conflict between her adherence to Shariah Law, as represented by her wearing a hijab, and her oath to defend the Constitution. The context of Pirro’s comments was the roots of Omar’s anti-Semitism and what it means for the future of the Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and the Democratic Party.”
The last time Pirro spoke publicly about the incident was Sunday, March 10, which is when the network released a statement in which they condemned her comments.
There are now even more anonymous sources claiming that Pirro is the target of liberals at Fox News Network.
On Monday, the Hollywood Reporter cited a source close to the conservative network, who explained that executives at Fox haven’t liked Pirro from the start. The source explained why the network stood by host Tucker Carlson, who made similar comments in the past:
Fox News was quick to condemn Pirro’s remarks but has not criticized Carlson’s comments, some of which were made when he was an MSNBC employee. A source familiar with the network’s strategy explained the divergent approach: “They love Tucker. They do not like Jeanine Pirro. They never have.”
President Trump tweeted his support for Pirro over the weekend.
Get your act together fox or you won’t be number one anymore ,can’t stand smith
