E.D. "Terrorist Fist Jab" Hill canned by Faux News

[RamboLiberal]

Exclusive: 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 has been without a regular Fox News program since June 16, when America's Pulse was replaced by two hours of Live Desk. Ten days earlier Hill used the term terrorist fist jab when promoting an upcoming body language segment that was going to look into the primary night fist bump shared by Barack and Michelle Obama.

For most of her nearly 11 years at FNC Hill anchored Fox & Friends. In 2006 she moved to a late morning program then to the afternoons where, in the months leading up to the election, she'd been filling in on America's Election HQ.

1. She had a long run, 7 years past the usual media

expiration date for women of 40.

Rita Crosby, 44, has also been seen rather seldom of late.

Either Pox News is cleaning house and looking for dewier bottle blondes, or there might be an editorial change in the works.

Nah, they're cleaning house and dumping all the old broads.

3. Faux also may be downsizing

I wouldn't be surprised.

4. Downsizing from a size 10 to a size 4.

6. You mean Rita Cosby

and where is her scathing tell-all book anyway? :rofl:

I really won't miss any of the Faux Newsbots, in part because I never watch them, but it's particularly rich to see Ms. Terrorist Fist Jab get the can.

2. She is one of the worst "news" personalities on TV. CNN will probably hire her.

5. She is tied into Bush significantly. Texas GOP cheerleader of long standing.
