http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E.D._Hill

E. D. Hill (born Edith Ann Tarbox on July 27, 1961) is an American news anchor who works for Fox News Channel.

Joining the network in 1998, Hill anchored America's Pulse, a show that aired until June 10, 2008 when it was canceled. She co-hosts Bill O'Reilly's Radio Factor. Hill moved to the 2:00 p.m. hour after serving as host of the 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon block of Fox News Live. These changes were part of a line-up change that also includes fellow anchors Jon Scott and Jane Skinner teaming up for a show called Happening Now.[1] Previously, Hill was a co-host on the Fox News Channel's morning show Fox & Friends from 1999 to 2006.

A graduate of the University of Texas with a bachelor's degree in journalism, she is working on a master's degree in government. Hill won a local Emmy Award for Outstanding News Special while working for WHDH-TV in Boston (1990-91), and has also received a Golden Quill Award for live spot news reporting.

In November 2005 Hill published a book entitled Going Places: How America's Best and Brightest Got Started Down the Road of Life, a collection of personality profiles. She has been married three times and is the mother of five children and stepmother to her husband's, venture capitalist Joe Hill, three children from a previous marriage.

More recently, she has filled in for Bill O'Reilly on The O'Reilly Factor.

In June 2008, Hill was criticized for referring to an affectionate gesture made between Barack Obama and his wife after the final 2008 presidential Democratic primaries as a "terrorist fist jab". Hill, introducing an upcoming discussion, wondered aloud if the gesture was "A fist bump? A pound? A terrorist fist jab?"[2][3][4][5][6]

Fox News announced on June 10, 2008 that Hill's show America's Pulse had been canceled.[7]

Uh, wheres the free speech?:confused:

FNC is a private institution where the speech of others is supposed to represent and reflect FNC. Not only was the comment unprofessional and clearly slanderous, even for today's journalistic standards, but reflected quite poorly on FNC. Further, FNC isn't Congress and any private employer has the right to run roughshod over your "free speech" (as many of you probably know by experience).

Uh, wheres the free speech?:confused:

With free speech comes responsibility. the old chestnut, yelling "Fire" in a theatre isn't protected, unless the theatre is on fire of course. but nowadays, yell fire and someone gets hurt. Can you say "li-ti-gate"?

Same thing with hate speech or sexual harasment. Say someone was stalking you and leaving vile, sexually graphic messages to you, oh, say on, message boards or blogs or answering machines. There is a law against that. In fact federal and state laws. Even if the person is anonymous, like over the telephone or internet. Nowadays anyone can be tracked down. So while you may have the right to say whatever you want, that right isn't extended in all circumstances.


dojo is right though, Faux Noise is a private entity and Rupert has the right to remove any employee for any reason.

PAY ATTENTION! There's is very little fare and balanced in any news. Just about everybody has an ax to grind. You only notice FOX cause their so anti-you. Believe me they are out numbered by left-wing news. AM radio is the only place dominated by the right. If you shop around you can find some news programs that dont pander to the Dems or Reps. Lou Dobbs and John Stoussel are a couple. Believe it or not regardless of what you might of heard Mike Savage hates both Dem and Rep politicians. Keep an open mind and listen to all sides. Try to see through the first layer and try not to believe something just because you want to.

we've had this discussion. Micheal "savage" Weiner is a putz. He is a schmuck. do you know what a schmuck is? A schmuck is the foreskin removed at a bris. Now in his younger days, little mikie would have chewed on that foreskin like bubblegum. But now that he's older and stupider he rails against all things not jesusy and insanely right-wing. fuck that asshole weiner!

Of course he's all those things. Thats his MO. BUT YOU MISSED MY POINT. He will give you an unbiased view of the Democrat and Republican parties. He hates them both. He thinks their both to liberal. Maybe you're one of those people who dont want to hear negative reports about your party of choice. You cant get cold-hearted brutal honesty from like-minded people. Broaden your horizens.

My horizons are broad enough thank you. I have listened to the "weiner". He is an idiot. He is a self loathing jew who wants to **** jesus' ****. (Is that better? Or still too rough?) He is an old man ashamed of his youth and is doing everything in his power to renounce former himself. In the vernacular he loves to use and denounce, he's meshuge!

I disagree. I notice Fox News because it's so NOT news JOURNALISM. It's NEWS COMMENTARY.

Olbermann, Fox, Mahar, Beck, Rush, Coulter and all only provide news for the purpose of supporting their own opinions. Left or right it doesn't matter. I don't respect any of them and I believe that they profit from dividing this country. They spend time attacking people instead of reporting on issues. Innuendo, NLP and just plain using micro facts to get people to beleive.

On cable it appears that MSNBC was not able to promote Tucker to a profitable status on his own and they replaced him with a far left commentator so now after about 6:00 PM that's all they do.

Fox is pretty much all day Neoconservative commentary attacking all competition of News Corp and anyone that prefers Ben Franklin's America over Hannity's.

CNN has Glen Beck and Nancy Grace in the evenings.

When I do my channel flipping (I'm terrible about this for about an hour a night) I see mostly Neoconservative commentary since CNN's Beck and Fox sandwich MSNBC.

That's just it. He hates. He's full of hate. He promotes hate. He profits from hate and spends time attacking people and ideas.

I only listened to him once and I was shocked at how well he uses tonality. He's probably the best Neurolinguistics Programmer on the air waves and even his supporters admit, like you, that he hates.

Why should people allow themselves to be programmed by someone that hates?

Sorry guys, I still like Savage. Ive heard enough of him over a long period of
time to have seen him be way ahead of the curve on a number of things.
And hes exactly right to loathe the two parties we have allowed to get control
of our lives! But dont throw the baby out with the bath water. He often
has good information whether its politically correct or not. Something is
giving him high ratings besides hate. Theres more there if youd just listen.

And Fox? What a bunch of namby pambies. I never thought Id go CNN first,
but I have. Except for rerunning the crap out of segments, they are first with
reporting the news.

But why? Sounds like it was her take on something she saw. I didnt see it
so I dont know, but what pops into my mind is the hate and wrath that spewed
from Bro Jerimiah and that looney Catholic "wanna be" black dramatically spewing
the same. And thats ok?:confused:

And what if Ariana Huffington had done exactly the same thing. Would that
be grounds for dismissal or banning from a network? I consider GW a home
grown terrist.....free speech or out of line? I think Im on the money!

While this sounds like something she should not have said it most likely was
said jokingly and havent we heard a lot of that going on lately? It shouldnt
cost her her job.

do you even understand what free speech actually means? it's the protection of your right to speak at all, in public... not the protection of your position in a corporate entity.

THANK YOU!!! You made my "Savage" point better than I did. CNN's Lou Dobbs has captured my attention. I'm a big fan of his "Illegal Immigrant Crusade" and especially his "Go Independent Movement". Mr Dobbs has made it his mission to BURY the Demopublicans who's mission is to BURY us. Both are big tax, big government, globalist institutions.

The Republican is the stupid wimp PARTY. The Democrat is the evil con Party. The simple truth is Savage doesnt like stupid wimpy evil con-artist. I would think all people would hate these qualities in those who would govern us. I do not support Mike Savage, in fact I rarely listen to his program but I do understand his passionate hatred of Demopublicans.

I've heard "Repubocrat" before. :thumbsup: As long as corporate interests buy and control Congress nothing will change. Lou dobbs and weinerboy can rant all they want. The decisions about this country are made in board rooms, They're just mimiced on the floor of the Congress.

Thats correct. Corporate lobbyist have a monopoly on Washington DC. The two parties are owned. Yes that includes McCain and Obama. Do you want real change? Get rid of the Demopublicans. If you always do what you always did you'll always get what you always got. Their are no solutions in dark confinement. Climb out of your box and look around.

I'm not aware that anyone was "outraged" or that any group demanded that she be fired or even moved to another spot. I'm only pointing out that maybe even the sheep are getting fed up with the mindless hate and fear tactics.

I think she was removed because of her ratings. Not because of her stupid remark.

Anyone stupid enough or arrogant enough to think so lowly of her base should end up losing that base and I think that's what happened. It's not a matter of free speech. It's a matter of basic intelligence.

Congradulations on breaking free of the box. Isnt it great out here in the wide open spaces? That reminds me of a book. Have you ever read "Jonathon Livingston Seagull"? 30 to 40 minute read. At first glance it might appear juvinile but by the end I felt inspired and motivated. I'm usually not a fan of fiction but Jonathan was lifting.

I have never stumped for the NLP or any Party. I simply want to make people aware of the coruption and deceit of the two parties that are totaly 100% resposible for bringing this country to the event horizon. I urge people to vote for anyone who is not a Democrat or Republican. If the Communist Party was my only other choice I would vote for their candidate. We have to stop this DEMOPUBLICAN madness. On the other side of that event horizon there is a black hole.

NLP stands for Neuro-linguistic programming. It's how Savage gets listeners to beleive. While all the talking heads use emotions (usually fear), anchors, repetition and word play to program you into buying their wares and come back for more I was very impressed with Savage's use of tonality.

While he uses the sane bag of tricks that are used by the others, I found his tonality to be wonderful. I'm sure that he has the ability to program his listeners much faster then the rest.
