Fox News drops Dick Morris

[TroyD]

2/5/13

Fox News has decided not to renew its contract with political commentator and pollster Dick Morris, an industry official tells POLITICO's Mike Allen.

Morris, who was on contract with Fox News throughout the 2012 presidential campaign, had not appeared on the network for almost three months after Fox News president Roger Ailes decided to keep him off the network. He is scheduled to appear on CNN on Wednesday.

Morris served as an adviser to President Bill Clinton but later became one of the Clintons' staunchest critics. He was an adamant supporter of Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney during the 2012 elections, and frequently predicted that Romney would beat President Obama in a landslide.

1. On his head?

already been done.

16. I was thinking something a little steeper

[catbyte]

2. And CNN continues to swirl down the bagger drain faster and faster

Don't they & CBS pay any attention at all to viewer demographics? They might be thinking bagger $ now, but the Koch crooks, Armey, and the whole rotten, festering lot of them will be residing in the Ninth Circle of Hell soon enough, and then they'll be up Shit Creek without a paddle.

A gal can dream, can't she?

14. I'm assuming this is just a guest visit on CNN's Piers Morgan

I don't think they are hiring him as a regular commentator, are they?

18. doesn't matter. After his performance in last years presidential race

anybody who wants to have him on their show or network is nuts.

3. Glad they got rid of the old broad.

He is simply a waste of flesh and blood.

4. Don't worry, they have binders full of guys who are always wrong.

6. He will be earning his income sucking toes

[Hulk Smash]

7. Drop dick sounds like a disease I'd wish on all Foxers.

[Historic NY]

8. At least he'll have more time to toe suck.

9. Fox is dropping their Dick?

[Blue4Texas]

10. Dumped Duo with Palin :)

[Sunlei]

11. Another republican supporter thrown away like an old shoe when they're done using them.

It costs fox lies a mint to contract their professional nags. maybe Mitt can hire him to muck his investment horse stalls.

12. I dunno...is Donald Trump going to be able to fill the stupidity gap?

[geckosfeet]

13. No kidding. Didn't see that one coming.

[Hekate]

15. I keep reading that title as: "Fox News dropkicks Morris"

They also dropkicked Palin, come to think of it.

17. It says something when Morris is even too dumb for FAUX, but CNN sure is

going down hill. Didn't they look at his puditry in 2012 and see how wacky it was?

[Downtown Hound]

19. Faux is apparently looking for a whole new crew

of warmongering, out of touch, lying, psychopaths to spread their bullshit after pretty much every one of their commentators had egg on their face after the last election.

Their ratings are plummeting. Their pundits are getting kicked off left and right. The demographics of the nation are changing, and the Repuke Party has a serious image problem. Yes, it's not a happy time at Faux, which of course, translates into happy times for the whole planet!

20. When Faux drops Douchebag, Wretched and Insanity

And stops treating Frank Luntz as if he were the Delphic Oracle, THEN we'll know they're on their way to somewhere other than where they've been since their inception.

Otherwise, they're just changing tires, as far as I'm concerned.
