Judge Napolitano.How to get fired from Fox Business in under 5 mins

The Judge said on his facebook page the final show is Feb 13th 8:00 PM

Well, Judge Napolitano basically just tells the truth and fox news does not like it so they fire him. He said bad things about Regan and the G.O.P.

Fox Business Network Cancels Judge Andrew Napolitano's Freedom Watch

Matt Welch | February 9, 2012

Bad news, freedom fighters! Judge Andrew Napolitano's Freedom Watch, the best damned daily libertarian news & argument show in the history of television (name a better one!), has gotten the axe from Fox Business Network. From the press release:

FOX Business Network (FBN) will debut a new primetime schedule featuring encore presentations of the channel's top post-market programs, announced Kevin Magee, Executive Vice President of the network. Starting February 20th at 8 PM/ET, viewers will find additional airings of The Willis Report (5PM & 8PM/ET), Cavuto (6PM & 9PM/ET) and Lou Dobbs Tonight (7PM & 10PM/ET). The new lineup will replace FreedomWatch with Judge Andrew Napolitano, Power & Money with David Asman and Follow the Money with Eric Bolling. [...]

In making the announcement Magee said, "Neil Cavuto, Lou Dobbs and Gerri Willis are the most trusted names in business news and this new lineup affords FOX Business viewers additional access to their no-nonsense take on the day's financial events. We look forward to Judge Napolitano, David and Eric continuing to make significant contributions to both FOX Business and FOX News. In addition to daily branded segments, each of them will be showcased throughout future programming on both networks."

Currently one of the leading judicial analysts on television, Judge Napolitano will continue his role on both FOX Business and FOX News, providing key legal insights surrounding the growing intersection between Washington and Wall Street. [...] Stossel, hosted by John Stossel, will continue Thursdays at 10PM/ET.

Well, boo (except for that last sentence).

Freedom Watch was a great friend to Reason, of course, but more importantly to anyone worried about the size and growth of government in all aspects of our lives. And despite (or maybe because of?) the show's stronger-than-usual ideological/philosophical content, the judge knew (and knows!) how to run a perfectly respectful debate with people who disagree strongly with him, which is a rarity in the cable world. Television needs more spaces like that.

Fox probably didn't like the fact that he had Ron Paul as a guest all the time too.

Fox news is the worst thing that has ever happened to the Republican party, instead of spreading the philosophical basis for their beliefs they simply play a shallow political game of rah rah cheerleader. If they instead chose to truly dig back down into the reason behind conservative positions they could do some good though they simply aren't interested in that it seems.

That's too bad. He is a class act and his concerns about the loss of our Freedoms apply to every citizen in the US no matter what party they may subscribe to.

"Judge Napolitano will continue his role on both FOX Business and FOX News, providing key legal insights surrounding the growing intersection between Washington and Wall Street"

Good to see they havent totally gotten rid of him.
 
I've always felt like it was just a matter of time until they dumped him. I really couldn't believe that fox even allowed it to begin with. We can be thankful for the time he did have and that all those shows WERE broadcast and that he got the exposure he did. I don't think he'll be going away though; he's too good. He'll be around...

and the beautiful thing is

he never accuses anyone of anything

he simply asks the question what if?

great stuff if you understand the legal ramifications of making accusations and how slick he was at averting them

I wish I had his hairline. His could recede 1 or 2 inches and he would still have a full head of hair.

I really like the judge.

He's the only reason I ever venture over to Rupertlandia.

That and the hot news actress's.

Megyn Kelly. Yum!
 
You do realize that's an op ed piece from a blogger,right?
All the 'networks' hold their on air personalities accountable for their social media ramblings.

The judge is a smart guy,I'm sure he'll land on his feet...or is this another one of those guised potshots so popular amongst the ilk round here?

Anybody hear that CNN suspended a black guy last week for tweets on his personal account!?!?!?...ZOMG!

CNBC gets three times the market share of FOX Business. FOX had 6 hosts, three of which actually make money. These days you gotta be profitable.

I received 3 not helpfuls, but a couple left 'positive' feedback. FWIW

... Eisenhower spoke of the dangers of a growing 'Military Industrial Complex'; Kennedy tried to end it (after a the failed Bay of Pigs invasion, and then the Cuban Missile Crisis) and was killed for it, and the same 'administration' has been running things since Nov 22, 1963.

There were 3 future Presidents in Dallas that day. LBJ, Nixon, and GHWB. GHWB has given multiple accounts of his whereabouts on that day, and finally settled on 'I cant remember'.

Some say this is a picture of GHWB

Check out Zapata Oil, its a company founded in 1953 by GHWB. Boats owned by the company (one named Barbara) were used in the Bay of Pigs invasion. The company also has ties to Watergate and Iran Contra.

Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Baker have been running shit for a long time.

Bush became head of CIA under Carter.
Ronald Reagan really was a 'movie star' president, even the staunchest republican will admit he was losing his mental capacity the last year(s) of is presidency.

[/tin foil hat]

Zapata Oil. Bush isnt that creative when it comes to naming his airplanes or boats.

None of that touches James Baker, Reagans Chief of Staff, Secretary of the Treasury, and GHWB Secretary of State, and frontman for the Carlyle Group!
