Fox News Channel will part ways with host Eric Bolling, a host and contributor whose on-air presence at the 21st Century Fox-owned network had been growing in recent months, after allegations surfaced that he had harassed colleagues there, the network confirmed Friday.
“Fox News Channel is canceling ‘The Specialists,’ and Eric Bolling and Fox have agreed to part ways amicably,” the network said in a statement.” We thank Eric for his ten years of service to our loyal viewers and wish him the best of luck.” A Huffington Post report had disclosed allegations that Bolling had sent lewd messages to colleagues via smartphone.
Bolling, a former commodities trader and best-selling author, had been a longtime co-host of “The Five,” and more recently helped launch a new late-afternoon show, “The Fox News Specialists.” He also anchors the Fox News program “Cashin’ In.” Fox News intends to keep Bolling’s co-hosts, Eboni Williams and Kat Timpf, as contributors. The show will be replaced at 5 p.m. eastern with an hour of news coverage for the foreseeable future, with rotating anchors holding down the slot.
Bolling had vowed to clear his name.
It appears that Bolling had the same success at clearing his name as OJ.
You may remember that Bolling was suspended early last month for texting pictures of his junk to female colleagues, who I'm sure were just thrilled to receive photographic evidence of his shortcomings.
And don't buy that crap about agreeing to part ways, Fox News is doing damage control right now so once those accusations against Bolling were made public his days were numbered.
So should we start taking bets on who gets the big heave ho next?
My money is on either Sean Hannity or that scuzzy Jesse Watters fellow.
Damn fine Catholic you are, Bolling. As fucked as he is, two Hail Marys and poof, sin goes away for him to do it again.
ReplyDeleteUhm, no. The deal is you confess, you do your atonement (a sliding scale of prayers depending on the severity of the offense), and then you DON'T DO IT AGAIN. That's how it's supposed to be done. Insta-forgiveness from the big Sky-Daddy is a fundagelical thing, not a Catholic one.
DeleteYou'd be surprised how many Catholics confess, say their Hail Marys and then commit the exact same sin again.
DeleteAdultery comes immediately to mind.
I knew when bill was outed as a predator, there was a huge global problem that dates back to the beginning of time.
ReplyDeleteHe was a predator, you are correct. He was impeached and has to live with that shit forever, not that it seemed to change his ways but most people remember him more for Lewinsky et, al, rather than his time as POTUS.
DeleteBill O'Reilly, 6:34 PM. But you already know that was who the OP was talking about.
Delete6:34, you know Clinton's sex partners were willing, unlike the Fox news crew's. Lewinsky came to the White House with a plan to throw herself at him.
DeleteCut the shit, i knew women of all races that would have willingly fucked Bill Clinton when he was President.
DeleteFox is a cesspool.
ReplyDeleteWHY, when trolls get on here, I guffaw at all their "such a Christian family" BS and $arah's daily devotional. See 4:44 PM's response above.
ReplyDeleteThe likes of Joel Osteen's Harvey response, people like this, and certain politicians? Don't feed me your BS, I can "see" you loud and clear.
MOH and D'OH selling trinkets outside the temple. We all know what happened THERE.
DeleteTypical creep from a cesspool.
ReplyDeleteChurches in Texas should be entitled to reimbursement from FEMA Relief Funds for helping victims of Hurricane Harvey (just like others).

Would love to see the odious Sean Hannity be the next down.

‘Penis Pic’ Probe Ends Eric Bolling’s Odious Run at Fox News
ReplyDelete...Bolling’s 10-year tenure with the right-wing cable outlet was one marked by casual on-air sexism, racism, and the unabashed dabbling in debunked conspiracy theories. Though he came to the network as a former commodities trader with ostensible business insight, his career at Fox more resembled that of a right-wing rodeo clown.
Bolling was among the first Fox News personalities to publicly promote the debunked conspiracy theory that President Obama’s birth certificate was a fraud and that Obama was actually born in Kenya. In one particularly notorious segment of his long-ago-canceled Fox Business Network show, Follow the Money, Bolling and anti-Islam activist Pamela Geller combed over a poster-board print of the then-president’s birth certificate with a green laser-pointer, alleging parts of it were digitally manipulated.

I've found in my over 50 years as a woman on planet earth that those men that leave the top 3 or 4 buttons undone on their shirts are for sure pervs.
ReplyDeleteIf you are looking for a good time with a perv then that's what you look for, just like when gay men wear certain colored bandannas to express their personal sexual desires.
But, if one is not looking to engage with a pervy straight guy then, truly, avoid the ones with the unbuttoned shirts, and they have no right to burden those women that aren't looking for that kind of experience.
For a hurricane stress break check this out and watch the reactions of the teens when Obama surprises them!

Another holier then thou pos finally outed and dealt with. There is no shortage of these "boys will be boys" disgusting predators.
ReplyDeleteIt's only whether or not someone has a reason or courage to point them out.
They have been protected for too long.
These Pilar's and great leaders and good ole boys of the community! Give me a fucking break!!!!!
That's true, but i say as women we have a responsibility to present ourselves as not sell outs. You cant tell me they were told that they were expected to dress the way they do, bull, Have you ever seen them in a pantsuit? They were picked for their looks and legs and, hell they even camera shots and desks playing on it.
DeleteThis is the world they chose and they should expect slimy behavoir so if they are tough let them deal with it, either open your mouth, kick them in the balls or quit.Just don't sell yourself for a paycheck and than whine about it.They had options and chose a paycheck.
Yes, Bolling is a slime bag but when you know you have to sell your body to work at Fox News you should expect crappy behavior from the likes of him.
Yep, and then there is that.
DeleteGryph and Bill Maher fans, New Rules was spot on tonight!
ReplyDeleteRussian diplomats move into new building in Washington DC after Donald Trump closes annex
ReplyDeleteJust a week after Donald Trump ordered that a handful of Russian government properties in the United States be immediately closed, including one in Washington DC, it appears the Russian diplomats who have been displaced are simply moving into a different building. Trump ordered that the Russian chancery annex in DC be closed. Today, Russians were spotted moving into a building that had previously been unoccupied – suggesting the entire thing has been nothing more than a charade.

Jesse Watters will go first. POS-POTUS loves Sean Hannity. Sean will go next, maybe when he's called in to testify in the Russian scandal.
ReplyDeleteWho knows?
dowl
Oh come on the women at Fox News dress in short dresses and have to sell themselves on air to get a job there.
ReplyDeleteI am not saying it's their fault that the men of Fox News take that as a free invitation. So you can blast me for pointing out that the women of Fox News know what sells and how to sell it.
If you still think that intellect comes before looks your kidding yourself.
Remember Candy Crowley? Those days are gone. You may ask yourself how far we have come as women and not like the answer.Unfortunately if you are not a "babe" with plastic boobs forget about it.
Judge Jennine is so plastic she may as well be a blow up doll. She has had so much plastic surgery i am in awe that her mouth moves.
Fox knows how to sell to their viewers. All the red neck men out there watching for the a glimpse of a short skirt.And you can tell your daughters all you want that looks don't matter but it's a lie in this society where we are not allowed to age gracefully, where botox and face lifts are considered "maintinance", never have women been under so much pressure.
Look what happened to Megyn Kelly.
DeleteAlso too, why I never could stand Kathie Lee Gifford nor Kelly Ripa, different genre. Now, Ellen? That's my girl!
You aren't all that. Go AWAY.
Remember Elisabeth Hasselbeck? She walk away...after 2 years...
DeleteHasselbeck announced that she would leave Fox & Friends at the end of the year in order to spend more time with her family, saying she wanted to "give them the best of me, not the rest of me"
RIGHT.
"My money is on either Sean Hannity or that scuzzy Jesse Watters fellow."
ReplyDeleteOr that weaselly puerile little twerp Greg Gutfeld.
Fox seems to be a pit of people who are much worse than just mediocre. They are shit. Is it surprising they attract a racist trailer trash audience? They are constantly sending out dog whistles these ignorant folks respond to.
ReplyDeleteWhile I'd love for this to be about the sexting, I have a feeling it's more about the show having lousy ratings and Bolling not testing well as opposed to the other two hosts.
ReplyDeleteTen years or not, his time was up. Time for new blood.
Can't wait until they get to Hannity. I think his days are numbered too. Just in a cleaning house, new faces, rebranding sort of way.
And also, Trump is toxic.
Asshole Salt Lake, Utah cop who arrested nurse is now under investigation by the FBI. Oh, yeah, this guy is gonna lose his job.
ReplyDeletehttps://www.yahoo.com/news/fbi-probing-utah-cop-arrested-nurse-refusing-draw-184236282.html
"Barker stressed that a "color of law" review, which examines whether law enforcement officials exceeded their authority, was a preliminary step that may or may not lead to a formal investigation.
"Color of law" violations include false arrest and the use of excessive force by police, according to the FBI's website."
I hope he's Mormon.

BACK DOWN PIG!

I did not think it would come this soon, but there WILL come a time where defending the indefensible if going to hit home HARD.
ReplyDeleteThere will always be those that blame it on a pissed off God, but more are changing their minds.
I'm a "practicing" Christian and know my Bible. The end of Fox cannot happen soon enough.
I thought Fox New Channel would have parted ways with Bolling after he referred to female pilots as "Boobs on the ground."
ReplyDeleteI guess Fox New draws the line at prick pics.
"Hillary Clinton ran as an experienced candidate that could keep level headed, solid, competent leadership in the White House. She misjudged the climate of the campaign and didn’t see that Trump had turned the election into a circus where people were voting based on entertainment VALUE and vague promises to shake things up in Washington."
ReplyDelete"Hillary Clinton’s thoughts are important, and there are good lessons that can be learned and used in running a future campaign against Trump, but it is a QUESTion FOR hiSTORY"
